"Avid Reader" in The Bahamas writes about the need for "Enlightened leadership"

by Rick Lowe

On Wednesday, June 3, 2009, a letter to the Editor was published by The Tribune over the name someone calling themselves "Avid Reader".

He or she said:

In response to numerous letters and articles by Rick Lowe and The Nassau Institute I have felt compelled to write this letter.

Over and again Mr. Lowe praises the supposed benefits of unfettered capitalism and seems to echo the neocon position which, distilled to its essence, favours the wealthy and generally scorns the less fortunate members of society. Download Avid Reader's letter (PDF) here...

I'm working on my reply...
