I have read Timothy Shire's article "Some Day Thoughts" and I agree with his understanding that eventually one day we will be able to reverse this undemocratic Bushism as "the paths of glory lead but to the grave." However, we cannot allow to wait for ever for this freedom day to come, and as a consequence we must fully exercise our civil responsibilities every day beginning now before it is too late.

It was sometime ago that I mentioned the 4 step program of the World Bank/IMF to pillage the developing countries. And tonight, as I learn that Argentina is pondering whether to dollarize its currency to get out from its financial problems caused by a staggering foreign debt of $132 billion I understand of an additional hidden step: the dollarization of any country outside the European Union as a measure to solve their international financial problems. Once you have dollarization in a country it is practically impossible to reverse its currency. Therefore, as many Latin American countries are gradually moving to dollarization I realize the kind of New World Order we could be heading as the Free Market is being pushed by the Bush Administration.

The question I have is this, how can we ever get our freedom back once dollarization is complete? It is very scary to think of what is happening to our world as Uncle Sam is going to be 'Uber Alles.'

I have written few lines against the dollarization in Canada and in this regard Saskatoon resident Clifford Hennings writes in the StarPhoenix "Dollarization is not a magic wand that will cure Canada's ills. It's a ploy being used by the Americans to take us over and they are being helped by highly placed talking heads in our financial system."

We must not wait for new leaders to take back our freedom, we have to do it ourselves as citizens and now.
