Go France! If only North Americans would get off their fat complacent butts and speak up.

This is a pretty scathing article from the popular Rolling Stone magazine. And I have to say I agree with every word of it. A few choice quotes here :

"So it's time to admit it: We're fools, protagonists in a kind of gruesome comedy about the marriage of greed and stupidity. And the worst part about it is that we're still in denial — we still think this is some kind of unfortunate accident, not something that was created by the group of psychopaths on Wall Street whom we allowed to gang-rape the American Dream"

This is a promising start and a nice change of direction from the incessant sabre-rattling of his predecessor.
