I do plan to diary on it at Economic Populist, where I spend most of my time on this side of the Atlantic.

I guarantee you that posting this on Kos would get me banned.

They don't get it.  They never will, until it happens.  And the biggest problem is that they all think that the current system is sustainable.  Ecologically and socially.

Uh... why?

Daily Kos is not a republican web page is it?

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

reread my earlier post.  I'm suggesting that it would be better for the right to rule than for real solutions to be pushed straight out of the political system because the Left won with policies that will do no good.  And will deny the opportunity for the call for real state intervention to come from a party of the Left inside the system.

In short I'm suggesting that in the long term it may be  more preferable that McCain win than that Obama and his followers get their victory.  That is what would get me banned from Daily Kos.

Because  Kos is political site, not a policy site.

I had no idea that dailykos is such a homogeneous group that nobody "gets it" over there.

Other than that ... beware of the people who save capitalism for itself.
