Hello Folks, Welcome to my profile page. I will be away for a few weeks in July and not around much on the weekends. Since I rarely post on Saturdays or Sundays, I am sure it is not a big deal. I am thrilled that more of you have been checking out the posts on the Gay and Lesbian forum. Although I submit many gay and lesbian themed stories, they are not my only interest. Look around most of the forums and you will find a story or two of mine. Enjoy the summer, log off from time to time, and until you come back, happy reading. David

Jesse Helms: American Garbage

Politics – What does it say about modern American politics that a proponent of racism and repression at home, and defender of fascist and military dictatorship abroad, should play such a major role? Like scum on a stagnant pond, the rottenest elements in American society rose to the top of the political system during the last quarter of the twentieth century.

Inflation Nation: Money as Debt

Money – One wonders how individuals, banks, governments, and other entities can all be in debt at the same time, owing astronomical amounts of money. This question is answered when we consider that banks don't lend actual money; they create it from debt, and since debt is potentially unlimited, so is the supply of money.
