Are not the laboring classes deprived of their earnings by usury in its three forms,—interest, rent, and profit? Is not such deprivation the principal cause of poverty?

I think I should record better versions of those two themes. When I recorded those, I was really out of practise at both singing and playing guitar. Since then, my band has been rehearsing and playing regularly so I've got my chops back on the guitar and I'm singing far better than I was on those recordings.

Yea, sure, if you want. I think it sounds really good, anyway.

To my ears, it sounds like I could do better. Either way, it'd be up to you guys which ones you use, of course.

When is episode 140 coming out?
"Let us remember that no man can borrow money, as a good business transaction, under any system, unless he has the required security to make the lender whole in case he should lose the money. What a stupendous wrong is this—that a man having credit cannot use it, but must exchange it and pay a monopoly price, which is really for the privilege of using his own credit!"

Yea, we kinda stopped doing em due to a general lack of topic. I told Alison this would be a problem, but she wanted to make new ones anyway. Next show as soon as we get something to talk about.

What about making some more of the older shows available? I only have 12 episodes, and I don't know where the rest are.

Well, you can buy the CDs. All the old shows were removed from the server.

If you want to hear a specific one, I can upload it for you. No problem.

Here's an idea for an episode (assuming you didn't already do it). Refute the idea contained in the below quote:

Sparx wrote:So what if you and Noor care? You guys have been convinced already, you have that kind of mindset.
Why do you think that the same anti-cap arguments that make sense to you don't click with other people?
People are predisposed to sets of beliefs, and you can't change them to see something they're blind to.
Sure, intimidation might work for a while, but in the long term, it's a bad strategy.

Doesn't seem like there would actually be enough depth to that argument to warrant a show refuting it.

Franc, do you have a show which discusses systems of financial credit? E.g. the notions of:

- monopolized credit system
- "financial independence"
- fractional reserve
- 401k plans

?

No, sorry. Our shows were made before I became a socialist.
