Joe Bageant has cancer

Joe Bageant’s website advises he has a massive internal tumour.

I have followed Joe’s writings and my view he is one of the USA’s more gifted and lucid commentators, often working Peak Oil into his unique exposition of the “American Hologram”.

He has a lot of heart and a unique and charming American voice which, as an Australian, I relish as I look for ways to appreciate your beautiful country.

I would hate Joe to think that the world at large is indifferent to his current challenges and his plight. The story of his illness is receiving no coverage that I can see.

There are many here on this forum who will appreciate the chance to express their best wishes and their accolades here or elsewhere. Now is the time.
