Noam Chomsky: The Obama Doctrine
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/19251-the-obama-doctrine

http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/19253-after-the-shutdown-maybe-a-little-equality
Sam Pizzigati, Too Much: Executives at private companies with federal contracts are getting rich off our tax dollars - at the expense of their low-wage workers. Today, more than ever, we need to refocus the federal "tax and spend" debate - from deficits to inequality.
Intervention as Radical Struggle: On Arendt, Negativity and Resistance
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/19151-intervention-as-radical-struggle-on-arendt-negativity-and-resistance

The Debt Ceiling Dates Back to Founding Fathers
http://truth-out.org/news/item/19255-the-debt-ceiling-dates-back-to-founding-fathers
Kevin G. Hall, McClatchy Newspapers: Wondering who to thank for the bizarre rules that allow Congress to approve spending, then later slam the door on new borrowing to pay the bills? Thank the Founding Fathers.
Washington's Warring Brothers
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/19254-washingtons-warring-brothers
Staff, Socialist Worker: This month's battles over the budget and the Tea Party Republicans' fanaticism about the health care law obscure the two parties' common commitment to austerity.

Samuel Oakford, Inter Press Service: Often the poorest and most marginalized in the world - the disabled - are hurt more than anyone by policies that diminish or ignore the importance of basic, long-term care.
This week in SpeakOut: Torture protesters fight to keep Dick Cheney out of Canada; speaking on systems of oppression in America, Angelita Chukwudebe writes that while "wealth is constructed solely of colored people's sweat and blood, it is the white supremacist government that still holds the power of the economic system and the majority of the wealth"; Levi LaChappelle discusses the failure of America's War on Drugs; and more.
