Hi Doug

I'd like a copy of the article by Panitch and Gindin.

Thought your book was great, got anything else in the pipeline. On word 97 thanks. Down here in NZ we continue to set new records in balance of payments deficits and low, low productivity, yet they tell us we've never had it better.We are that failed labratory so I guess we've served some purpose. Even main stream economists are coming out almost daily - oh brave hearts - with further dismal news.

Cheers

John
