Performances

Some of music's brightest stars, including Bob Mould and Elvis Costello, offer up their latest for NEWSWEEK's cameras.

    ..................................More regulation of the Economic Community by the Government who represent the People, this is what is needed. We just can not let these Big Corporations and Wealthy Individuals do what ever they want without being watched and controlled when they are ripping us off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    why would anyone invest when the government is seeking new powers to steal companies that are in trouble? With the threat of nationalization and shielding weak companies how can one feel comfortable investing. It's all a sea of looters and moochers.

    You are an idiot. In case you did not realize, GWB is now out of office and BHO is in. His policies thus fas have been panned by Wall Street and, increasingly, the American people.
