Not that anyone would care, but

Okay, so it's not that you would care. It's that you'd read it, go "hmph" and then go back to what you're doing.

Time Warner has pulled off a coup - they've gotten the Postal Rate Commission to agree to refrain from increasing the postal rates on TWC's big publications - Time comes to mind - while jacking the rates on smaller publications not supported by large multi-national corporations. So, the publications that I read to get real perspective and information, like the Nation, will have a postal rate increase of about $500,000 a year.

They did everything by the book, but the complexities of Federal regulation and the pervasiveness of high dollar lobbying prevented anyone from understanding what was going on.

Just on the off chance that someone may want to bitch somewhere about this, here's an article that tells you what exactly went down and how to contact someone.

Fun tutorial on money supply, banking, and why the wealthy in our country are determined to avoid their own appointment at the Bastille gates.

And finally, this morning, you know how I feel about health care. Here, the leaders of the fight to enhance profitability for the healthcare industry are discussed.
