    There comes a time when you must put things in writing before they are forgotten and lost forever. That even applies today in spite of the highly advanced society we live in. In this rural community on the river banks of the Rio Grande in the early 1900s when illiteracy predominated, the history and identity of its residents were preserved by story-telling. These "cuentos" often left much to the imagination but still were very entertaining, vivid and memorable (not to be confused with tall-tales).One of the very first stories that I remember hearing was that of a bigger-than-life character who happened to be my grandfather, Don Juan. We were all fascinated by how this man was able to win the admiration and respect of his neighbours at least enough to have stories told about him. Although they were all survivors, they were also all interdependent, and looked for an orientation that could make them believe in themselves.In spite of the many and varied challenges they confronted, many like Don Juan provided a perspective of right and wrong, of commitment to family, of surviving untold suffering, but also of purpose to continue. This story provides a sampling of how this rural community in "El Capote" ranch sought its own destiny from the bare essentials that the river lands could provide. Don Juan may not have been a legend, but he was a pilar of strength, faith and loyalty to a way of life many had no choice but to embrace.

    Throughout our history Americans have embraced the myth that our national debt is immoral and destructive.This deeply rooted belief goes back to our Founding Fathers: Jefferson excoriated debt as "the greatest of dangers to be feared." Andrew Jackson demonized debt as "a national curse." Current political leaders continue to endorse this negative view of our national debt. Obama said that incurring debt was "irresponsible" and "unpatriotic." John McCain condemned it as "generational theft." In this book, the prize-winning economics professor Arthur Benavie, demonstrates in clear and non-technical language that belief in this myth has repeatedly blocked our federal government from creating jobs and investing in our children's future.Benavie describes the many occasions, including from the administrations of FDR to Obama, where our leaders were faced with severe political retribution at the mere suggestion that their policies would increase the national debt.Belief in this myth presents a continuing danger to the wellbeing of our children and grandchildren. Benavie examines several ways to disempower it.

    "Women like myself!" I saluted to a rousing reception."We are here!" the women chorused. I stood in the middle of the women. They gathered around me on all sides at the square entrance of Eke-oha market."Women like myself!!""We are here!!""Women like myself!!!""We are here!!!" They responded a third time."Today, the wind has blown, and we can now see the behind of the fowl. We now know that these white rulers do not like us, and our men do not like us too.""Who bears nine months of labor pains?""We do, we do.""Who bears all the labor of housework and raising the children?""We do, we do.""Who tends the men and nourishes all their desires?""We do, we do.""Women like myself!""We are here!""We shall not be counted. We will not pay tax. We will not pay tax because we bear the children and we bear the fire of kitchen coals on our palms.""It is the truth, it is the truth.""Where the rat eats is where it falls. The men must tell us why the hen must always be spread-eagled for the randy cockerel.""Today, we will burn down the courthouse, and we will have their red caps."The women needed no more prodding. My last statement had aroused their anger.
