		<description><![CDATA[The diamond-crusted rich on both sides of the Atlantic have determined that workers and the vulnerable will pay the consequences of the bankster-caused recession. And they’re exploiting the financial crisis to strip workers of collective bargaining rights, preventing them from ever regaining what they’ve lost.

What they should fear is the greed-driven multi-national corporation that behaves exactly like HAL, the reasonable-sounding computer willing to kill rather than forfeit its objective.]]></description>
