Economy for Scientists: Economic Science, in Short
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Lyndon LaRouche introduces his discussion: “The following report has been produced for the special benefit of those serious scientists and poets who are prepared to come directly to the crucial issue underlying the world’s presently accelerating plunge into the onrushing new dark age of general breakdown-crisis of the present world economy as a whole. The subject within which this report is situated, is what is, to my present knowledge, the still rarely considered principle which distinguishes the human mind, knowledgeably, from that of beasts. This is the same uniquely human principle, of that willful potential of the human mind which lies under the same heading, under which the notion of the ontological conception of the tensor must be situated for our study here.”

Congressional Hearings Show: We Must Shut Down the Fed
by John Hoefle
The Federal Reserve has thrown trillions of dollars of public funds into the greatest swindle in history, the bailout of the U.S. financial system. Thanks to hearings by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, some of the truth is coming out—including the release of damning e-mails among high-level Fed officials, regarding the takeover of Merrill Lynch by Bank of America.
