In addition to international pressure, the U.S. Army has another big hurdle to overcome on the way to a possible attack against the forces of Bashar al Assad in Syria: it is the lack of resources that overwhelms the Pentagon.

A Freedom Budget for All Americans: Recapturing the Promise of the Civil Rights Movement in the Struggle for Economic Justice Today

A Freedom Budget for All Americans: Recapturing the Promise of the Civil Rights Movement in the Struggle for Economic Justice Today



While the Civil Rights Movement is remembered for efforts to end #segregation and secure the rights of African Americans, the larger economic vision that animated much of the movement is often overlooked today. That vision sought economic #justice for every person in the United States, regardless of race. It favored production for social use instead of profit; social ownership; and democratic control over major economic decisions. The document that best captured this vision was "The Freedom Budget for All Americans: Budgeting Our Resources, 1966-1975, To Achieve Freedom from Want" published by the A. Philip Randolph Institute. Now, two of today’s leading socialist thinkers return to the Freedom Budget and its program for economic justice. Paul Le Blanc and Michael D. Yates explain the origins of the Freedom #Budget, how it sought to achieve “freedom from want” for all people, and how it might be re-imagined for our current moment. Combining historical perspective with clear-sighted economic proposals, the authors make a concrete case for reviving the spirit of the Civil Rights Movement and building the society of economic security and democratic control envisioned by the movement’s leaders—a struggle that continues to this day. The book conjoins meticulous research with a sensitive analysis to deliver a superb political narrative graphically recreating a significant slice of lost history.

SPAIN -- ILLEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT -- ▶ La PAH presenta: de la burbuja a la Obra Social - YouTube

▶ La PAH presenta: de la burbuja a la Obra Social - YouTube


"L 'association against evictions PAH arises from the need to combat anti-social working of financial institutions in the building sector. The aim is to reach more families, evicted, they have nowhere to live, given that the authorities are not able to respond to this unfortunate situation of emergency housing. Spain is among the countries with the most empty houses in Europe and, at the same time, the country with more foreclosures and more families who can not exercise their right to housing decent. PAH in four years denounced this injustice. The video explains how the circumstances have led to launch welfare projects, through a campaign of civil disobedience and the recovery of abandoned property held by banks for the families homeless. government PP has bailed out the banks with billions of Euros of public without any social consideration and passed a law that benefits the banks and destroys people's lives. European Court of Justice ruled that Spanish law on evictions is illegal. Madrid will have to change legislation on mortgages to secure more rights for citizens and curb the excessive power of the banks in getting evictions of citizens who are no longer able to pay the installment. Anti-Eviction Campaign has raised a million and a half signatures, after a dramatic series of suicides of people at imminent risk of eviction. The ruling of the European Court criticizes the Spanish law authorizing the eviction in the event that a citizen who has signed a mortgage, no longer able to pay. "

Fukushima, Climate change, Near-Term Extinction: Resignation vs. Surrender

Fukushima, Climate change, Near-Term Extinction: Resignation vs. Surrender


Why would I not want to ingest a large dosage of ‘Fuckidall’ or go eat 700 pounds of chocolate? Go to the gym today? Are you freakin’ kidding me?

A recent Guardian headline reads “Fukushima Warning: Danger Level At Nuclear Plant Jumps To ‘Serious’,” and the Wall St. Journal states unequivocally that ‘TEPCO (Tokyo Electric Power Company) Has Lost Control.’ Just a few days ago I posted on my site Guy McPherson’s latest piece “19 Ways Climate Change Is Feeding On Itself,” and Washington’s Blog screams, “West Coast Of North America To Be Hit Hard By Fukushima Radiation,” complete with a detailed map of the ocean current called the North Pacific Gyre which is bringing Japanese radiation to the West Coast of North America.

As I’ve mentioned in earlier posts, I occasionally hear people saying things like, “Well, we’re not going to be here after 2030 by which time near-term extinction is ‘guaranteed’ so what I eat or drink or smoke or do or don’t do doesn’t matter.”

That’s called resignation or giving up, and from my perspective, indulging in it, even if I feel compelled to do so, is a cowardly, delusional kind of devil’s bargain that essentially affirms that I have no purpose here except breathing air and ingesting food and water. Resignatio in Latin connotes submission, acquiescence, and compliance. Is this not the same as surrender? Actually, it’s not.

Hopefully, everyone reading these words, like me, is not willing to go gently, quietly, or complacently into the abyss that our species has created. If we do—if at this unprecedented time in the history of our planet we resign ourselves to defining our existence only in terms of the physical plane, as if we have absolutely no connection with anything eternal or constant, then we are inexorably as foolish as the purveyors of industrial civilization who are engaged in rendering this planet uninhabitable.

The courage to surrender

Surrender is fundamentally different from resignation because unlike the latter, it is not a passive act. Surrender is always a choice, and in our “dead man walking” status on planet Earth, we may be able to change nothing in the external milieu, but we have agency in how we meet our fate. Certainly we have the option and the right to muddle our way into oblivion like comatose inebriates, and countless millions will choose and are choosing that path.

Mentally, I keep returning to Nazi death camp survivors and the unspoken, seemingly feckless choices they made on a daily basis that allowed them to prevail. Perhaps a drawing made in the mud or jokes they furtively told to one another or a decision that every day they would find meaning somewhere, somehow in the hellish drudgery and brutality of their lives.

Giving up is easy. Surrender takes enormous courage and self-regard—an abiding conviction that one’s human dignity is worth it, even if one is bereft of family and friends.

Surrender acknowledges that in the last half of 2013, the human species is marching obliviously in its own funeral procession and that perhaps one can choose instead to march consciously, all the while asking questions that matter. Questions like: What is left for me to do here? How do I most wisely use the time I have left? What is my work in these remaining years? What gifts do I have that I must give? What brings meaning to the lives of people around me? What brings meaning to me?

In The War You Don't See, Pilger, himself a renowned correspondent, asks whether mainstream news has become an integral part of war-making.

Focusing on the current conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, Pilger reflects on the history of the relationship between the media and government in times of conflict stretching back to World War I and explores the impact on the information fed to the public of the modern day practice of public relations in the guise of 'embedding' journalists with the military.

On the 50th anniversary of King's "I have a dream" speech, while the US is poised to enter into yet another war, King offers this message to President Obama. Will he listen?

Noam Chomsky


Profit and democracy are so contrary that there is no scope for comment. The aim of democracy is to leave people free to decide how they live and to make any political choices concerning them. Making a profit is a disease in our society, based on specific organisations. A decent, ethical society would pay only marginal attention to profits. Take my university department [at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology]: a few scientists work very hard to earn lots of money, but they are considered a little odd and slightly deranged, almost pathological cases. Most of the academic community is more concerned about trying to break new ground, out of intellectual interest and for the general good.

50 Years Later - West Defiles Martin Luther King's Memory: http://bit.ly/1fk6kHl
 


Legendary equality, justice, and peace activist who championed character over the color of one's skin is compared with warmongering corporate servant Obama ... because of the color of his skin.

The differences between Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and current US President Barack Obama could not be greater. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that they are both black. Yet somehow, Western media outlets have managed to draw parallels between these diametrically opposed figures - presumably because they are indeed both black. AP recently published an article titled, "Obama Embodies King's Dream and His Struggle," stated:

"The scheduled appearance later Wednesday of Obama, the first African-American president, was certain to embody the fulfilled dreams of hundreds of thousands who rallied there in 1963..."
Why? Merely because President Obama is black? Or because President Obama embodies any of the ideals of justice, equality, and peace that Martin Luther King Jr. championed for during life, and ultimately died for?

There is no greater way to defile the memory of Martin Luther King Jr. than to compare him with US President Barack Obama - a servant of an engine for the greatest disparity, inequality, and injustice on Earth - driven by the very corporate-financier interests King stood up against, was opposed by throughout his entire life, and most likely was killed by. - http://bit.ly/1fk6kHl

Innocent people killed by members of the army. On the other hand, ironically the police motto is "All with one heart" What heart?

Naked Juice class action settlement announced: Here's how to claim $45 from PepsiCo even without proof of purchase


The PepsiCo / Naked Juice class action settlement has just been announced! Remember, PepsiCo bankrolled the campaign to defeat Prop 37 and prevent GMOs from being labeled. Now they are forced to hand out $9 million in settlement fees. Anyone who bought Naked Juice can claim up to $45 from PepsiCo even without proof of purchase! Here's how to file a claim: http://www.naturalnews.com/041817_Naked_Juice_class_action_settlement_claim_form.html
 

Friedman on racial discrimination « Understanding Society

Friedman on racial discrimination « Understanding Society


Milton Friedman argues that racial #discrimination in #employment is essentially impossible within a market #economy. In his "#Capitalism and Freedom" Friedman expresses skepticism about whether the concept of “discrimination” even makes sense within a market economy. So taking steps through legislation to reduce the harmful effects of racial discrimination in hiring (and presumably in #housing) is an illegitimate use of the force of government, according to Friedman. In fact, he compares efforts to do so to the Hitler Nuremberg laws (p. 111). Friedman's analysis of racial discrimination is a striking example of the ways in which adherence to a theory can blind a person to the patent social realities around him or her. And once we see the realities of how racial discrimination and coercion worked in America, it is incumbent upon us as a society to put aside our stylized theories and attack the problem. #Inequality #neoliberalism

The Ecology of a Police State

The Ecology of a Police State


A provocative premise, but the author has an excellent point. Read the article here: http://bit.ly/17i5Hxg
 


"Imagine being an environmental activist in a world where police can get away with killing young people for vandalizing a fast food joint; where a government’s local law enforcers are collaborating with giant energy corporations to stifle opposition; where a sheriff demands funding for a program urging neighbors to snitch on anyone who says they hate said government.

Sadly it doesn’t take much imagination, does it? In case you weren’t inspired to click the embedded links above, they reference recent stories of these things occurring in the US.

In light of this reality, it’s crystal clear that global ecology will never be stabilized as long as the police have anything to do with it.

That’s right. Stopping the tar sands’ atmospheric climate bomb, keeping GMOs out of our food, and defending wolves’ ability to restore biodiversity depends on getting rid of the fuzz. Perhaps this is the beginning of a new movement initiative that aims to reduce the CO2 parts per million (ppm) by simultaneously slashing the cpms (cops per million). Cops are not only the industrial empire’s first line of defense against, well, us. They are also massive usurpers of the public financial resources that might otherwise be put towards restoring the Earth." - http://bit.ly/17i5Hxg
