>>>The Nation

Check your local library - most carry at least one of the magazines.

The Nation was on the Enron story long before anyone else had it.  And still
has some of the best reporting I've seen on the subject.  It's heavily
political, and assumes that you know a lot about what they are already
talking about  (and the only way to get that way is to read the magazine
weekly for about six months) but it's worth it.

The Progressive and Mother Jones are a lot more accessible.


>>> Believes that defense
should only be associated with the word "cuts".

Not true.  Defense spending, like any other spending, should be in
proportion to the needs of the nation.  In other words, don't spend $5,000
on a hammer when people are starving in the streets.  Or dying from lack of
affordable, accessible health care.
