Yeah, not merely politics stops at the water's edge, as we were reminded
ad nauseam during the media crank-up to the Gulf War, but evidently
consciousness itself.  From the 16-hour "days" in New England's mills
to the internal maquiladoras of one brutally squeezed immigrant wave
after another, from the super-exploited domestic colony of Appalachia
to the hellish reports now filtering in routinely from the Third World,
there is a problem perhaps closer to myopia or astigmatism than overly
protective analysis.  Maybe a good optometrist is all that's really
needed by the like of Isaac to cure this peculiar arbitrariness in the
perception of shorelines and boundaries.

For a good litmus test all around, how about soliciting a review from
Soros?  That might go a long way toward finally determining just what
weird breed of cat the Kurrency King has become in his gathering years.
