Fatalities in the GOP War on Regulation 
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12463-fatalities-in-the-gop-war-on-regulation
 Dr. Brian Moench, Truthout: More Americans die every year from contaminated medicine, food, air and water than died in the attacks on the World Trade Center. Yet the GOP argues we cannot afford the promulgation and enforcement of the regulations that would save these lives.

History's Magic Mirror: America's Economic Crisis and the Weimar Republic of Pre-Nazi Germany 
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12477-historys-magic-mirror-americas-economic-crisis-and-the-weimar-republic-of-pre-nazi-germany
Charles Derber and Yale Magrass, Truthout: Germany's economic crisis of the 1930s led to the rise of far-right populism and the Nazi Party, fueled by the corporate and military establishment. An American version of this "Weimar Syndrome" could emerge as the far Right closes its grip on the Republican Party.

Forget the Election and the Politics: What Will Make FEMA Work for the People? 
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12444-forget-the-election-and-the-politics-what-will-make-fema-work-for-the-people
Dina Rasor, Truthout: For the residents of the Eastern Seaboard and beyond, the compelling question in the wake of Hurricane Sandy is, "How well will FEMA manage the disaster and its aftermath?" For Solutions editor Dina Rasor, there is one equally compelling question: What would Leo do?

Election 2012: They Will Steal It!
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12479-election-2012-they-will-steal-it
Thom Hartmann and Sam Sacks, The Daily Take: We must fundamentally change how we elect our president and who gets to vote in that election. Until we do this, we just have a dysfunctional system that the plutocrats can steal, and more closely resembles an oligarchy than a republic.

The Power Outage Didn't Divide NYC: Income Inequality Did
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12475-the-power-outage-didnt-divide-nyc-income-inequality-did
Sarah Seltzer, AlterNet: Income inequality runs rampant in New York, and - as Hurricane Sandy demonstrated - storms are always more dangerous for the poor.

America Beyond Capitalism: State and National Innovators 
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12466-america-beyond-capitalism-state-and-national-innovators-chapter-10
Gar Alperovitz, Truthout: A number of state and federal institutions function successfully on the principle that capital can and should be accumulated and managed in ways that provide individual citizens with an income stream from publicly-backed investments.

GMOs, Seed Wars and Knowledge Wars 
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12456-gmos-seed-wars-and-knowledge-wars
Dr. Vandana Shiva, Z Communications: GMOs were created to ensure seed monopolies and along with them, the destruction of our democracy and scientific integrity. We are better off without them.

Unraveling the "Future Generations" Debt Debate 
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12470-unraveling-the-future-generations-debt-debate
Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: While foreign ownership of American assets - not just government debt - is a complication, the common claim that deficits mean that we're selling our birthright to the Chinese makes no sense at all.

Afghanistan: The Who Cares War? (Not Exactly, But It Fails the Real Definition of a Just War) 
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12355-afghanistan-the-who-cares-war?-not-exactly-but-it-fails-the-real-definition-of-a-just-war
Kevin Martin, Truthout: If there was a draft, the war would be over in a month - if not sooner. The public wouldn't stand for it, because this war fails miserably in meeting the real definition of a just war.

On the News With Thom Hartmann: Courts Help Disenfranchise Voters in Ohio 
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12484-on-the-news-with-thom-hartmann-courts-help-disenfranchise-voters-in-ohio
Thom Hartmann, The Thom Hartmann Program: In today's On the News segment: A man who's been lying to the American people for more than a year is neck-and-neck in the polls to be president; courts are helping disenfranchise voters in Ohio; more than 74 Americans were killed in Hurricane Sandy; and more.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/12482-green-party-vp-cheri-honkala-we-need-young-people-to-go-forward
Tolu Olorunda, Truthout: Green Party VP candidate Cheri Honkala visited Detroit this past Sunday, giving a multi-platform speech that called for movement-building, whatever the outcome on Nov. 6.
