Bruce Springsteen, the Rising
Can't see nothin' but the crash;;
Can't see nothin' but war and riots;
I make my way through insanity;
I can't see nothing but more leveraged buyouts;;
Losing Bear Stearns to the Cayman Isles;;
Rupert Murdoch’s dirty deal, how late the collapse has gone;;
On my back's a trillion of debt;
On my shoulder more bailouts going on;
Come on up for the collapse;;
Com on up, to reorganize;;
Come on up for the rebirth;;
Build infrastructure like the FDR line;;
The puny bridge deal of Oberstar;
Won’t go to far when it all needs rebuilding;;
Bridges crashing into the rivers;;
Thirty years of collapse of our nation drowning;;
Come on up for the rebirth;;
Act of Homeowner and banker protection;;
Come on up for the renaissance;;
Come on up bankruptcy reorganization;;
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li
Mukasey’s waterboard’s behind me
Tortured eyes crying and burnin' bright
Victims of tyranny and torture;;
Will they soon be coming to knowledge and light;
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li
Crimes of the British Empire;;
Back to Venice and the bridge of sighs;
Liberate us from our oppression;
New alliance of America and Russia too;
May I feel the new deal constructed;
Hu Jintao of China is a friend of mine;
A dream of life comes to me
Like a Spaceship flying at on the end of the line
Reorganize the broke system ( a dream of life)
Broke system of the British tradition (a dream of life)
American system of protection ( a dream of life)
Freedom from want, freedom from fear ( a dream of life)
Sky of reconstruction ( a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my thoughts tonight;
Russia, America, China, India (a dream of life)
Alliance of fullness, Alliance of life ( a dream of life)
Come on up for the shake-up;
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the Shakeup;
Come on up for the shakeup tonight;
Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

In discussions with a Chinese scholar working at a U.S. think-tank, Executive Intelligence Review, brought up the observation that the latest Communist Party Congress had indicated something of a Rooseveltian thrust. The political report of Hu Jintao, the real basis of the congress discussion, was focused less on simply talking about maintaining high rates of growth and more on the need of improving the standards of living of the population. For instance, emphasizing the need for medical insurance, public education for the broad masses in the countryside, affordable housing, a social safety net, and dealing with the very real environmental problems that the hothouse development had brought with it..
"People have started to call it Hu's 'New Deal'" in China.
The Party is talking about the three mountains that have to be overcome," he said. "These mountains are education, housing, and medical insurance."
This contrast to the impotence of a good guy James Oberstar (D- Minn) who only pushes for a $2 billion bridge and infrastructure reconstruction act. He admits at the same time that the NEEDS are on the order of $200 Billion of reconstruction projects.
