...profiteering by American-based distributors for OPEC. An end to the current crazy policy of high interest rates will put home costs back in touch with reality. Pruning subsidies to agribusiness will yield cheaper food. National health insurance coverage will calm fevered medical costs. Above all, we need to outgrow our dependence on foreign oil. Shifting money from the war budget to mass transit and energy efficiency programs will at once create more jobs and lower costs. We ought to be able to attack inflation without inviting depression.
