Republicans Have Done Real Damage to the Economy

Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future: This hostage-taking episode has done real, serious, lasting damage to the economy on top of the ongoing damage Republicans have been doing. Will the public still blame Democrats, or will they finally see what is going on here?

Jihadists flooding into northern Syria put Turkey on edge

The brutal, Al Qaeda-linked group rebels "invited" into Syria to help topple President Bashir Assad has virtually taken over northern Syria, raising fears that its brand of indiscriminate terror could spill into neighboring Turkey, where some 300 U.S. soldiers are based to protect Turkish airspace from Syrian missile attacks.

US has killed far more civilians with drones than it admits, says UN

A new report from a special U.N. investigator says drone strikes have killed far more civilians than U.S. officials have publicly acknowledged, at least 400 in Pakistan and as many as 58 in Yemen, and chides the U.S. for failing to aid the investigation by disclosing its own figures.

New UN report highlights how US drone policy violates international law

Antiwar.com
by Cathy Reisenwitz

10/21/13

The United Nations General Assembly just released the latest Report of the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions. The report is necessary, in part, because 'There is...a notable lack of consensus on how to apply the rules of international law that regulate the use of force to drones.' The report provides a framework to help states ensure their fatal drone strikes are conducted in line with existing international law. Evaluating US drone strike policy in light of these recommendations, it is clear that the United States is not currently in line with international law concerning targeted killings, first and foremost regarding transparency....

The cost of the financial crisis hits Americans harder than banks

If you are an American, it s a price that has resulted in a recession and recovery characterized by historically high poverty, with 42 million Americans on food stamps, and historically low rates of Americans working, with only 63% of the population gainfully employed.

The next food stamp crisis is about to hit

If youhave been following the food stamp debate in Washington, you know it s about whether to cut food stamp benefits for the disadvantaged by $4 billion a year (the House proposal) or only $400 million a year (the Senate plan).

Cutting food stamps: The ruthlessness of the American ruling class

Food assistance benefits for over 45 million Americans will be slashed starting this Friday, in the first-ever nationwide reduction in benefits under the US government s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), popularly known as food stamps.

http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2013/10/29/pers-o29.html



No Time to Wait on a Movement

This Friday, 48 million people-including more than 21 million children-will see their food stamp (SNAP) benefits reduced. Instead of receiving an average of a buck-fifty for a meal, individuals in need of food assistance will get about $1.40. For families of three, the cut means they will receive $29 less in food stamps every month.

Let the Dysfunctional Plantation-Based Red States Secede

The Daily Take, The Thom Hartmann Program: The activism we see from Tea Party radicals in Washington today is just a modern-day reboot of the same government obstructionist strategies that have been around since the early days of slavery.

The World According to the GOP

Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: There are a lot fewer economic arguments out there made in good faith than a naive observer might think, and that s precisely because powerful forces are doing their best to hoodwink said naive observers.

Republican War on Food Stamps: One Giant Lie

The Daily Take, The Thom Hartmann Program: Last month, Republicans in the House approved a bill that would cut a staggering $39 billion from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, otherwise known as food stamps, over the next decade. President Obama has said that he will veto that House bill should it reach his desk, but the damage is still going to be done.

Stop the Cruelest Cuts!

The Daily Take, The Thom Hartmann Program: We are the richest country on the planet, yet 50 million Americans need federal help just to eat. And tomorrow, millions of them could lose access to that vital lifeline. That's because the House is expected to vote on a plan that would slash $5 billion from the federal food stamps program.

The Banksters Are Now Setting Up the Crash of 2016

The Daily Take, The Thom Hartmann Program: In the past year and a half, banksters in Wall Street hedge funds, big banks and private equity firms have purchased hundreds of thousands of mostly-foreclosed houses across the country to bundle up rental payments and sell them to investors the same way they used to bundle mortgage payments.
