	"Free Trade" Puts Democracy in Peril	by Arnie Alpert
	Under the rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO), provisions of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas, virtually any law that hinders international commerce can be considered a "barrier to trade." This new expansive view of trade puts democracy at risk, along with the rights of workers, the protection of the environment, and the health of communities.

	9/11 ? A Day of Reassessment for the U.S.	by Syed Atiq ul Hassan
	9/11 is the day of remembrance, assessment and reassessment for Bush and his policy-makers to start a new epoch for peace, justice, fairness and equality. This is the time for US to create a threat-free environment for smaller countries. This is the time for US to provide confidence to every other nation without the prejudice of race, colour and religion.
	A Coup Against the American Constitution	by Dennis Bernstein
	Since September 11th, we have seen one blow against the Constitution after another, after another. Recently, we ve had Ashcroft saying that he had, unilaterally, instituted monitoring of attorney-client communications without even informing anyone he just went ahead and did it, despite the Fourth Amendment ban on unreasonable searches and seizures without warrant and the Sixth Amendment right to representation by counsel.

	A New Punk Manifesto	by Joel
	Punk has done important things in its short history. (It's done some really stupid things, too, but that's for someone else to chronicle.) Out of the waste heap of middle class values and shopping mall esthetics, we've built a culture that has allowed us to survive the postindustrial world while at the same time salvaging some semblance of our independence, freedom, creativity, and human integrity. As important as this is, it is now time for punk to enter a new phase. Punk has allowed thousands of youths to survive in this rat heap of a world through its music, zines, and communities; now it's time to change the rat heap itself.

	Affirmative Action	by SlutPrincess
	Affirmative action is based on the very fight for civil rights. It is based upon the fact that every human being, regardless of sex, race, creed, or other difference, should be given a fair and equal chance in all aspects of employment and education. By providing awareness of these other aspects of a person’s profile, affirmative action provides opportunities for equal employment, a diverse workplace and academic environment. It widens the market areas for the enrolment of the best talent. Affirmative action is still, by far, the most effective and meaningful process devised by the government for equal opportunity. Affirmative action has a strong and needy place in our cultural, political, and academic society today, and should be defended with the utmost respect.
	America's Hit List	by Shane Altmann
	After years of dealing WMD with Saddam Hussein in the 1980’s and bizarre encouragement of an Iran invasion anyone with valuable information must have been surprised when George Bush, Sr. started the first Gulf War, though the reasoning behind that conflict is now clear; the Iraqi military came too close to America’s oil rich friends in the dictatorship of Kuwait.

	Anarchists are opposed to order arbitrarily imposed and maintained through armed force or other forms of coercion. They struggle for the order that results from the consensual interaction of individuals, from voluntary association. If there is a need, anarchists believe that people are capable of organizing themselves to see that it is met.

	Are We Being Destabilized?	by Loise Neville
	But the U.S. has never, in its history, had a balanced budget. The government has made no effort to pay its international debt by organizing tax rates so the rich will pay their share, and there has been no recession since 1987. The '90s have actually been a growth period, a high point in our economy.
	Are We Living Under the Communist Manifesto?
	"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known, and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor. He speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in hearts of men. He rots the soul of a nation. He works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city. He infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A Murderer Is Less To Be Feared." Cicero, 42 B.C.

	Audit of the Pittsburg Police Department, Part 3	by Tom Flaterty
	One possible explanation for this lies in the OPS practice of initially distinguishing between serious and less serious citizen complaints. Complaints deemed to meet an appropriate level of seriousness were designated OPR and assigned to OPS investigators. Complaints deemed less serious were designated DR and sent out to zone commanders, who were then supposed to look into the matter.
	Background and Shockwaves of 9/11: An Orwellian Nightmare	by Bi?rn Ivemark
	The fearful atmosphere that hangs over the West is also the ideal opportunity to ram through measures that have met severe popular opposition for a long time. Jo Moore, special adviser to the British government, explained to her colleagues a few minutes after the first WTC tower collapsed that it was "a very good day to get out anything we want to bury". Her wisdom is understood in many circles. Everybody wants a share of the cake, while justifying it with all kinds of honorable and altruist aims.

	Bush Can't Protect Us From His Oil Buddies - Much Less Terrorists	by Voxfux
	Solar and wind energy are ready now to solve many of our problems, but this truth is being systematically wiped out by the Oil industry which has been keeping close tabs on the "Alternative" energy models. Turns out that solar Isn't "Alternative" at all. In fact it's our primary source. But this information will imperil the fortunes privileges and destines of our industrial oligarch's... and they are fighting to keep thier fingers around our necks.
	Bush's Speech on Iraq October 7, 2002	by George W. Bush
	Bush's speech on why we should go to war with Iraq. While the President makes some interesting points, each of his statements about Iraq can also be applied to the United States. He says Saddam is addicted to weapons of mass destruction, isnt the U.S. addicted to nuclear weapons? He has tons of chemical weapons, but the United States has the largest chemical stockpile in the world. Don't we in the U.S. live in a country where the man who received the most votes for President was denied the office by an unaccountable body?

	Dichotomy of Conservative and Neo-Conservative Philosophy	by Matthew Luther
	In Europe and even in Canada, politicians are so loyal to a centralised party platform that you can vote for the party and not the candidate, being assured that the policies presented in the platform will be faithfully carried out by their appointed leader, not so in America, our parties are big tents and disagreements sometimes disrupt the ideological continuity that defines us as Democrats and Republicans. In this dissertation I examine the difference between conservatism and neo-conservatism as practised in the Republican Party.

	Must You Pay Income Tax?	by Bob Huebner
	Before World War II, individuals' wages were not considered to be subject to income taxes. During the war a "Victory Tax" was imposed on wages as an emergency measure to help pay for the war. The people did not realize that government could not constitutionally impose any tax directly on them, so they assumed that individuals and their earnings could be taxed directly.

	No to Bush's War: The Military Face of Globalization
	George Bush wants to inflict an even greater horror upon the inhabitants of one of the poorest countries in the world. He has enlisted the support of a gaggle of the world's most unscrupulous career politicians, oppressive regimes, military dictators and absolute monarchs. In tow are thousands of professional sycophants, $150 a line journalists, TV commentators hoping for easy honours, and armchair generals, all urging us to relish a vengeance which will cost the blood of people who had nothing to do with 11 September.
	Non- Discrimination and Affirmative Action	by Professor Jan Narveson
	We must begin by asking a question about discrimination that is not asked often enough: what is it? There is, by now, a satisfactory short definition: Discrimination is treating some people less favourably than others for morally irrelevant reasons. (The word arbitrary can be used equivalently to irrelevant.) The notion thus defined calls for considerable comment.
