Noam Chomsky on Democracy Now

Alright, alright.  This isn't cheerful.  I'm working on it.  I don't usually do cheery.  Perhaps next post.  In the meantime, Noam Chomsky recently gave an excellent (if all too brief) lecture on the economy and the aftermath of the US elections.  It was broadcast on Democracy Now on Monday.  It's his first public appearance since the election and I for one have been eager to hear his thoughts.  It's well worth listening to and you can find it, along with a rush transcript, here.  

As an aside, I'm sure there are rules to blogging.  Something like not mixing pandas and politics.  I intend to remain wholly ignorant of those rules.  More odd juxtapositions - here I come!  Right, I'm off to think of something cheerful..
