I am asking for a debate on this. These are the most fundamental issues. The tragedy is that Washington and the Vatican intervened in a most significant experiment in Nicaragua, where a Government which was partly composed of Roman Catholic priests - idealistic people from the liberation theology movement - was trying to meld together elements of capitalism with incentives and the social conscience of decent good people. That is the way we must go. Otherwise we are banjaxed.

I am glad I now have no money whatever left. I do not know where it will end up and I do not want to see it ending up in the hands of banks or irresponsible Governments. I ask for a strong, clear and radical debate on the whole question of the economy.
