Americans want to maintain Individual Rights and the 2nd Amendment - but then also create false illusions of ‘gun free zones’ (micro-versions of a gun free America). The massacres we have witnessed at Virginia Tech, Northern Illinois University, and other institutions are a result of the ongoing legal conflict surrounding the gun control issue.”

Charles H. Green presents Decaying Social Trust and Moral Indignation posted at Trust Matters, saying, “When business and consumer in the subprime mortgage mess both choose moral bankruptcy over financial bankruptcy—without even thinking about it—and then justify it indignantly through Darwinian arguments—we’ve got the makings of a major problem.”

Howard Ditkoff presents The Key Issue Suspiciously Missing from Ralph Nader’s “Table” posted at SystemsThinker.com Blog, saying, “Ralph Nader is at it again, running for president as a third candidate in a system designed to work well for only two. While many condemn Nader for running because he might “spoil” the election, there is actually a related, but more important issue that cuts to the heart of Nader’s motives. It is one he rarely addresses and that the press rarely raises wtih him, but it challenges him to back up his claim that his campaign is indeed about opening up the doors to more voices and choices in our political system.
