French President Sarkozy says the days when "the all powerful market is always right are over". This footage part of a Real News Network video today that offers a less US-centric view of the alleged "bail out". Or, as economist and historian Dr. Michael Hudson tells the Real News crew, it's not a "bailout" but a "giveaway" and will create a new kleptocracy of billionaires.

Because of the box-office success of The Corporation Mark Achbar was given a performance envelope from Telefilm Canada which he has been using to support many social issue doc-makers. (I confess I am one of them, so my bias is showing.) While Mark was thrilled to get the money, he discovered there is a double standard when it comes to documentaries. (You can check out Mark's article in the latest POV.)

Hello Cool World's first guest blogger is back! The ranting & raving Mike Cowie (of mikesanddislikes.com) puts The Shock Doctrine firmly in the latter category. Enjoy!
Dedicated to music, film, sport, world travel, a far more just world, & Bob
Dylan (not necessarily in that order), Mike is presently
tangled up in the blues (& joys) of writing his first book, an account of his
(and wife Sonoko's) 3-year trip across Asia.
