Republican zero-tolerance philosophy got this idiocy started. The usual result for a wrong solution which has the advantage of appealing to simple minds with power.

Thom, you quoted I believe "Healthfacts. org" saying that two eggs are as bad for your heart as smoking. I was surprised you would do that. This is sensationalism based on an ASSOCIATION, which is not cause and effect. Far from it. You should look at a clinical study (clinical is the gold standard) that shows little relation to dietary cholesterol from eggs and serum cholesterol.

I am seriously disappointed. This is not something I expect from you; an educated and informed individual.

From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
David C. Korten, author of When Corporations Rule the World and Agenda for A New Economy
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
Van Jones, cofounder of RebuildTheDream.com and author of The Green Collar Economy
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
Mike Farrell, actor, political activist, and author of Just Call Me Mike and Of Mule and Man
