Foreclosures are everywhere, unemployment is skyrocketing

The Secret of Oz

Video By Bill Still

Foreclosures are everywhere, unemployment is skyrocketing - and this is only the beginning. America's economy is on a long, slippery slope from here on. The bubble ride of debt has come to an end.

Stop the police state, repeal the PATRIOT Act

The year 2011 brings in a host of opportunities and challenges to America. Will we accelerate toward economic insolvency by continuing the policies that have created this crisis, or will a new Congress elected on the energy of the Tea Party movement find the courage to change course? With the new Republican majority in the House I will have the opportunity as a subcommittee chairman to take a careful look at our domestic monetary policy...

Bradley Manning: 'One soldier who really did ?defend our freedom'

C4SS Center for a Stateless Society
by Kevin Carson

12/30/10

When I hear someone say that soldiers 'defend our freedom,' my immediate response is to gag. I think the last time American soldiers actually fought for the freedom of Americans was probably the Revolutionary War ? or maybe the War of 1812, if you want to be generous. Every war since then has been for nothing but to uphold a system of power, and to make the rich folks even richer. But I can think of one exception. If there?s a soldier anywhere in the world who?s fought and suffered for my freedom, it?s Pfc. Bradley Manning...

Responding to the Conservative Propaganda Machine

Joe Brewer, Truthout: "So now you've seen the power of conservative propaganda for setting America's agenda. During the November 2010 elections, we saw the annihilation of progressive ideas by the most sophisticated, deeply funded and precisely orchestrated public relations system ever concocted. And they are preparing to take things up a notch now that they've won. The gears are well-greased and the engine is humming. Prospects are slim for President Obama and the remaining progressives in Congress. If we don't act now, 2012 will mark the end of the progressive rise to power in American politics."

WikiLeaks, Ideological Legitimacy and the Crisis of Empire

Francis Shor, Truthout: "Given the battered economic and military standing of the United States over the past several years, the hysterical reaction of the American political class over the recent release of State Department cables by WikiLeaks is not surprising.... The abuses heaped on Julian Assange and the threats against him, especially, but not exclusively, from politicians in the United States, reflects this hollowing out of democracy and a fear of the new virtual world of free speech."

US at War Since 1950

A New Year's Meditation

Michael True, Truthout: "At the beginning of the new year, consequences of 'life at war' stare us in the face: the victimization of military and civilian populations and a huge national debt, including an annual military budget that is larger than all military budgets in the world combined and includes $5 billion that remains unaccounted for in Iraq, as well as aid to Pakistan that has wound up in the hands of the Taliban.... Any responsible citizen acknowledges this painful history in the hope of redirecting US foreign policy in the future. The purpose of reclaiming it is not to open old wounds, but to encourage legislative and direct action committed to peacemaking. It is a call to critique the policies and competence of the Pentagon, the CIA, and the national security apparatus responsible for these disasters."

Is the bond crisis inevitable?

Human Events
by Patrick J. Buchanan

With Christmas shoppers out in force and the stock market surging to a two-year high, talk is spreading that the long-awaited recovery is at hand. Perhaps. But gleaning the news from Europe and Asia as U.S. cities, states and the federal government sink into debt, it is difficult to believe a worldwide financial crisis that hammers governments, banks and bondholders alike can be long averted...

The Year of the Big Lie: Six Outrageous Falsehoods That Took Flight in 2010

Adele M. Stan, AlterNet: "In a political year dominated by tales of polarization, a flurry of themes emerged as I contemplated the year just past - the year of the Tea Party, the year that psycho became the new normal (Glenn Beck), the year in which info leaks rocked the world (WikiLeaks), the year that saw accomplishments defying conventional wisdom (Obama). But at the root of all of these themes lies the Lie; all other themes speak to either its advancement or in its defiance."

Honor the WikiLeakers

Alexander Cockburn, Truthout: "When it comes to journalistic achievements in 2010, the elephant in the room is WikiLeaks. I've seen many put-downs of the materials as containing 'no smoking guns', or as being essentially trivial communications to the State Department from U.S. diplomats and kindred government agents around the world. Now, it's true that the cables were legally available to well over 1.5 million Americans, who had adequate security clearance. But trivial? Don't believe it. The cables show the daily business of a mighty empire acting in manners diametrically opposite to public pretensions. The cables form one of the most extraordinary lessons in the cold realities of international diplomacy ever made public. Normally, scholars have to wait for 10, 20, even 50 years to gain access to such papers."

Bushwacking Obama: Conservatives Seek to Trap President on Social Security

Robert Borosage, The Campaign for America's Future: "Beware of conservatives bearing gifts. Today in the Washington Post, former Bush policy advisor, Michael Gerson echoes a growing chorus of conservative pundits offering up "Social Security reform" as 'the answer to Obama's problems.' The advice is illogical on its face, pernicious in its consequence, and poisoned from its source. Gerson argues that Obama faces a major strategic decision in his coming State of the Union address, which must take the 'first cut at the reelection message he carries to reelection or defeat.'"

Almost everything is a crime in America now

Doesn't it seem like almost everything is becoming a crime in America now? Americans are being arrested and charged with crimes for doing things like leaving dog poop on the ground, opening up Christmas presents early, not recycling properly, farting in class and having brown lawns. But is it healthy for our society for the police to be involved in such silly things? Every single day the United States inches closer to becoming a totalitarian society...

New Year's Prediction II

Robert Reich, Robert Reich's Blog: "What will happen to the US economy in 2011? If you're referring to profits of big corporations and Wall Street, next year is likely to be a good one. But if you're referring to average American workers, far from good. The two American economies - the Big Money economy and the Average Working Family economy - will continue to diverge. Corporate profits will continue to rise, as will the stock market. But typical wages will go nowhere, joblessness will remain high, the ranks of the long-term unemployed will continue to rise, the housing recovery will remain stalled, and consumer confidence will sag."

We can understand how governments will do these things, even if that understanding is based on a very dark view of government, but we have to remember that financial institutions in this country basically have become yet another arm of the State.

One of the most common arguments against nullification has to do with anarchy and the rule of law. The horrified central planner exclaims, 'Nullification! We can't have that in a lawful society. That would lead to anarchy!' The nullifier then responds, 'No. You're confused. Anarchy is when the central government usurps a power not granted by the Constitution. Nullification is how we restore order' ...

US Government Can't Account For Billions Spent In Afghanistan

One large part of the problem is that the United States is not demanding accountability for outgoing funds from U.S. companies which have little incentive to fully disclose where the U.S. money is going.

Clinton Plays Russian Roulette With Justice

By Yvonne Ridley

Instead of sticking her nose in to other countries' judicial processes, perhaps the US Secretary of State would care to look into her own backyard and tell us why one of her soldiers was given a mere nine month sentence earlier this month after shooting unarmed civilians in Afghanistan?

WikiLeaks exposed US and Hillary?s hopelessness

Belfast Telegraph [Occupied Ireland]
by Robert Fisk

12/28/10

That Clinton should want her State Department slaves to play secret agents on the poor old UN shows what an utterly worthless institution the US State Department has become.They were supposed to spy on the encryption details of delegates, credit card transactions, even frequent flyer cards. But who would want to read the nonsense that the UN's overpaid staff write, or how much they spend on lunch?

Enemy Within The Gates

by Pastor Chuck Baldwin

The enemy has always done its best and most efficient work from within. At this point, I am reminded of what America's most celebrated jurist, Daniel Webster, once said, "There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter: from the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence. I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may........

Patriotism as political correctness

EconLog
by Bryan Caplan

12/29/10

Political correctness isn't just hypersensitivity; it's hypersensitivity designed to place a permanent stamp on impressionable young minds. From this perspective, political correctness isn't essentially leftist. Indeed, with the benefit of hindsight, leftist political correctness hasn't been all that effective. The full-blown triumph of political correctness, of hypersensitivity plus one-sided education, is patriotism...

Why criticizing American foreign policy is not anti-Americanism

Liberty For All
by Sean Gabb

12/29/10

Are the Americans greater today than before 1917 or 1898? In the military sense, they are so undoubtedly. But every step towards world domination has been at the expense of the qualities that underpin their general greatness. Their government has become more distant and opaque, more centralised and more open to capture by special interests. It has repeatedly violated the old Constitution. Liberties have been abridged on the grounds of dealing with emergencies, and then never restored. America has been at war almost throughout the whole of the past century -- at war with other countries, or at war with abstractions like 'drugs' or 'terrorism.' As everywhere else, war has been the health of the State and the sickness of the people. If the Americans today remain the freest people in the world, that is only because they started with so much more to lose...

Attack tyranny at its weakest link: enforcement

C4SS Center for a Stateless Society
by Kevin Carson

12/29/10

Liberal goo-goos and 'good citizens' of all stripes are fond of saying that 'We must continue to obey the law while we work to change it.' Every day I become more convinced that this approach gets things precisely backwards. Each day?s news demonstrates the futility of attempts at legislative reform, compared to direct action to make the laws unenforceable...

The unthinking right

LewRockwell.Com
by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

12/30/10

Let's talk about weird. What's weird is the world of National Review where it troubles no one to call for huge spending cuts and slashing government at the domestic level while defending the worst form of global imperialism abroad, complete with reflexive defenses of every violation of human rights and liberty. In what sense can these people claim to favor freedom?

Harmful US hypocrisy on freedoms abroad

Christian Science Monitor
by Sarah Trister

12/28/10

Times are tough for organizations around the world working on sensitive issues such as human rights, governance, religious freedom, and humanitarian aid. As individual human rights and political liberties have declined over the past few years, governments worldwide have also restricted the capabilities of independent nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), preventing them from operating freely, or at all...

Skipping down the road to serfdom

Strike The Root Strike the Root
by Duane Colyar

Put aside for just a moment the visions of goose-stepping soldiers and horrific crimes against humanity, for at its core fascism is a type of political economy which, as was the case in fascist Italy, does not have to feature a landscape dotted with crematoria. As with pure socialism, however, fascism must become more and more authoritarian with harsh penalties for those who don?t comply or who challenge the status quo, for an economy can be controlled only by controlling people...

The Downsize DC Agenda: Part 2 of our memo to our Congressional sponsors

Downsize DC Downsize DC
by Jim Babka

12/29/10

Ignorance of the law is no excuse for citizens. Neither should it be permitted to Congress. With great power comes great responsibility. Representatives have a fiduciary responsibility to read every word of every law that they seek to impose on the people they claim to serve. The obligations imposed on public servants must always be greater than those imposed on citizens...
