Hmm, ok. So is this a possibility? It seems like a strange and improbable idea. Could this actually work? What about all the varying inflation, recessions, and so on.
Not to take up for that whacko, but he has a point about capitalism and the damage we have caused worldwide with this crisis.

Ahmadinejad does have intelligent views on some issues, but has completely idiotic views on others.

Such as? His quasi-intelligent views are motivated and influenced by his wacky views.

His views on American foreign policy aren't overly extreme in my opinion. I didn't see much but when he spoke at that university two years ago (big news event), I didn't find a problem with much what was said. It is just the US news only focused on his completely idiotic viewpoints. The questions following his speech, what got printed and shown on TV, at that university had nothing to do with the actual speech, just the common gay and Israel questions that will boost ratings.
