Seems like everyone is realising how corrupt the Fed is! This is a good thing!

However Naomi Klein is still an economic illiterate cheeky

She is sincere on civil liberties and on the war: http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/2010/04/16/podcast-show-27/

And even has good things to say about the Tea Party people: http://www.truthout.org/naomi-wolf-tea-parties-help-fight-fascism58127

In the war between power and freedom she is definetely on the right side of the barricades.

She is not against the Fed.

She is against the Fed according to the socialist conspirators and some misguided libertarians, who rant about the Fed being private and how the people's government is hijacked to it.  She'll get rid of those "money masters" who control it, put up a people's Fed, and live happily ever after.

Dude, that's Naomi Wolf - two different people.

Naomi Klein is a hardcore socialist/fascist and economic ignoramus.

Naomi Wolf is cool, Klein not so much.

But you know how it is, your brain doesn't actually read all the letters, as soon as it thinks it got all the info it needs it moves on.

Hasn't Naomi Wolf become more of a libertarian lately?  I know she used to be a Democrat but she, like the other really principled people out there have remained critical of the current administration and they've transformed more towards being libertarians.  Just an observation.

Lew Rockwell basically taught Naomi WOLF libertarianism here: http://www.lewrockwell.com/lewrockwell-show/2008/10/31/58-americas-slow-motion-fascist-coup/

She spoke at a Ron Paul rally one time as an interested participant.

She's cool.

When I was first beginning my path to libertarian thinking, I bought Klein's Disaster Capitalism and Paul's The Revolution at the same time. I read the first few chapters of Klein's book, but it was dry and boring (unlike how her books are presented in bookstores) so I turned to Paul's book. No looking back after that.
