Visionaries,
   I was surprised to see the works of Ezra Pound
quoted approvingly here on V2020 by Ms. Huskey
   
   Usually the work of openly racist, facist
anti-semites is viewed as somewhat discredited. Pound
was undeniably an "interesting" fellow and was even
born in Idaho, but his treasonous speeches in favor of
Mussolini and Hitler, his habitual anti-Jewish rants,
and his apparent insanity don't lend much credence to
his social commentary. 
   
  For an interesting review of one of the better books
on Pound, see:
