All sensible and moral people admit that the current policies are a disaster, and that we cannot continue along the current path. But almost no one has any idea of the solution, of a rigorous program to solve the problem at its root. In this anguishing situation, a growing international movement has fortunately emerged in favor of the adoption in all countries of the GlassSteagall law, which President Franklin D. Roosevelt established in the United States in 1933, and which imposes an absolute separation between commercial banking, which issues productive loans, and investment banking, which speculates with private and public funds alike. Initiated by American economist and statesman Lyndon LaRouche, the international calls for Glass-Steagall have spread from the United States, to Russia, to the United Kingdom, to the majority of countries of continental Europe, and to numerous nations in the developing sector... |

- Asteroid Apophis Update:
No Impact; a Call for Action
The 'pinging' of Apophis by NASA's Goldstone antenna is helping to provide a more accurate understanding of its orbit, which will be essential for any future efforts to knock an asteroid off a course of Earth-impact.
