Booklobbyist Tom Brown is going toe-to-toe with JP Morgan, who lobbied John Cornyn with $61,847. Tom sent Web of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System and How We Can Break Free by Ellen Hodgson Brown to Cornyn. You can view Tom’s comments on Booklobby.

Tom takes a strong stance, calling the current bailout a “pre-meditated hijacking of the public trust.” According to Tom, all is not lost if the bailout bill passes the House–as of this writing, the Senate has already approved a version.

We can start by defeating this bill. If necessary (and Ellen gives plenty of rationale why we might), we can consider Article 31 of the Federal Reserve Act: The right to amend, alter, or repeal this Act is hereby expressly reserved.
