    <body><![CDATA[I'm sure this was a very informative, but it was also extremely dry.  Even though I haven't read something this boring, since my Palestinian  Hamas textbook in my senior polsci research class, I was going to prove I could finish it.  I didn't finish it since I have a newborn, and Kim wanted to pick it up. I didn't start reading it until it had been in my house for about a month.  I read 3/4 of it in about a week before I ran out of time.  It seemed to contradict the documentary, <em>The Money Masters</em> on some points. I wonder which one has more facts straight, or if they are both sort of right in their interpretations.  Maybe they weren't in contraction on some points, I just was reading the book wrong, or maybe its been too long since I watched the movie. If I was going to suggest one, I would suggest the documentary, <em> The Money Masters</em> it was better at adding drama.  The Fed is a scary organization so I would think it would be easy to add drama to written piece as well.  Maybe I'm sounding stupid and naive by writing all this, but the book was one of the driest text books I have ever read. Although it was informative.]]></body>
