Power exposes and disposes in forms such that only the fool, the heritic, and the oppressed take their right to smile about their violence and the violence done upon them seriously.

The problem with watching the olympics on TV while you are online is that you sometimes read headlines of events you are in the middle of watching. So I've ruined the drama of the womens gymnastics.

Chavez declares referendum victory but is battle over csmonitor.com:
"Early Monday with 94 percent of the ballots counted Venezuelas electoral council announced that Chvezs mandate had been confirmed with some 5 million no votes rejecting the recall against 3.57 million yes votes in favor of the recall."
Looks like Chavezs survived with Carters blessing--the democratic seal of approval-- even though the opposition is claiming fraud.

Yahoo%21 News - Income Gap Up Over Two Decades%2C Data Show:
" Over two decades the income gap has steadily increased between the richest Americans who own homes and stocks and got big tax breaks and those at the middle and bottom of the pay scale whose paychecks buy less. The growing disparity is even more pronounced in this recovering economy. Wages are stagnant and the middle class is shouldering a larger tax burden. Prices for health care housing tuition gas and food have soared. The wealthiest 20 percent of households in 1973 accounted for 44 percent of total U.S. income%2C according to the Census Bureau. Their share jumped to 50 percent in 2002 while everyone elses fell. For the bottom fifth the share dropped from 4.2 percent to 3.5 percent. "

Australia's low-cost drugs threatened by US trade deal | csmonitor.com:
"A model approach that allows Australians in some cases to pay even less than Canadians for prescription drugs may be jeopardized by a new free-trade agreement with the United States. "
I still don't know enough about the economics and sociology of the medical field. Or about trade deals in general. I know one thing though, its wrong to call these deals free trade because of the patent protection involved in these types of deals.
