Thinking about Revolution

By John Spritzler and Dave Stratman

John Adams wrote in 1815 that the American Revolution was not the revolutionary war. The war was only 'an effect and consequence of the Revolution in the minds of the people, from 1760-1775.' This is the Revolution that we are here attempting to achieve.

Onward to Wall Street

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: 'In case you haven't heard, there is an ongoing protest taking place on Wall Street. There is no shame in being ignorant of the event; the 'mainstream' news media has gone out of its way to ignore what is happening down there, Yahoo s email service was recently busted for blocking messages having to do with the protest, and Twitter - that bastion of protest messaging for the people who organized the Arab Spring movements - has reportedly been quashing Wall Street protest-oriented tweets out of hand. If a tree falls in the forest and the 'mainstream' news doesn t report it, did it happen? Of course it did. Ask the tree.'

Arun Gupta, Truthout: 'At some point, the number of people occupying Wall Street - whether that s five thousand, ten thousand or fifty thousand - will force the powers that be to offer concessions. No one can say how many people it will take or even how things will change exactly, but there is a real potential for bypassing a corrupt political process and to begin realizing a society based on human needs, not hedge fund profits. After all, who would have imagined a year ago that Tunisians and Egyptians would oust their dictators?

The One Answer: Tax the Rich

Robert Parry, Consortium News: 'It is curious that the American Right, which waxes nostalgic for the happier days of the 1950s when the United States was supposedly more moral and more united, ignores one of the central reasons behind that middle-class era: very high taxes on the rich. Granted, some on the Right may love the Fifties because it was a time of racial segregation and second-class status for women. But what arguably made the era work was the fact that the U.S. tax structure 'disincentivized' greed by ensuring that excess wealth was mostly recycled back into the Treasury for use building the nation and supporting research and development.'

Politics as rich man s sport

C4SS Center for a Stateless Society
by David D'Amato

09/25/11

Presumably, that is, judging from the terms of the debate, we re all supposed to implicitly recognize that politicians are corrupt to the bone, susceptible to purchase and sale like the judges and politicians Don Corleone carried in his pocket. Nevertheless, despite both this acknowledged fact and all of the eager cries for reform, for preventing corporate greed from shaping public policy, no one ever questions the hallowed assumption that we need people in positions of power and influence at all...

Is the United States a police state?

EconLog
by David Henderson

09/27/11

A police state, as I understand it, is not necessarily the same thing as a totalitarian state. A totalitarian state is necessarily a police state, but not vice versa. I think of a police state as one in which the government can find a charge to put you in prison even though you did nothing wrong...

Failure in Libya

09/28/11

'Faster than you can say 'I told you so,' we ll have boots on the ground. No other course is possible, given what is unfolding in Libya at the moment. The country has no real government - a condition the Powers That Be cannot allow any longer than a few weeks. It could be that the National Transitional Council (NTC) will proclaim itself the 'official' government, having already achieved this recognition from the NATO powers and the UN. Yet the reality on the ground is and will continue to be quite different...

Unequal Wealth

Thom Hartmann, Berrett-Koehler Publishers: 'In the absence of the controls recommended by the Founders and early state regulation, corporations have continued to grow in size and power without limit. But they haven t done it just by creating new wealth in the economy. Much of it, instead, has been accomplished by increasingly consolidating existing wealth, moving it out of the hands of the middle class and into the hands of the top few percent of Americans economically. Of course, some new wealth has been generated, but nowhere near enough to explain the observable facts.'

The Corporate Takeover of the 2012 Presidential Election

Jim Hightower, Other Words: 'The unregulated energy hucksters behind the infamous Enron scandals of a decade ago created an array of dummy financial funds to evade public scrutiny and perpetrate fraud. To disguise the scams, they dubbed these phony funds names like Chewco and JEDI. While Enron s house of cards did of course collapse, 'Enron accounting' lives on in corporate America today.'

Who Will Eclipse America?

Simon Johnson, Project Syndicate: 'According to Voltaire, the Roman Empire fell 'because all things fall.' It is hard to argue with this as a general statement about decline: nothing lasts forever. But it is also not very useful. In thinking, for example, about American predominance in the world today, it would be nice to know when it will decline, and whether the United States can do anything to postpone the inevitable.'

Confidence Men: Wall Street, Washington and the Education of a President

Ron Suskind, HarperCollins: 'Disputes among his top advisers have become so acute, so fierce, that the president has had to step in and mediate many of them himself. He s not getting what he needs to manage this daunting job, and some advisers have become convinced that his lack of experience, especially managerial experience, may be his undoing; that, at a time of peril, the president may simply not be up to the demands of this moment. But his gratitude for those who have ushered him to power, and have walked with him through battle, gets in the way of tough love....'

Wall Street Donated $41 Million to Supercommittee Members

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: 'Wall Street has given $41 million in campaign contributions to the members of the Congressional 'supercommittee' charged with finding $1.5 trillion worth of deficit reduction measures, according to a report released today by two watchdog groups. The finance, insurance and real estate sector spent $3.7 billion on lobbying and campaign contributions from 1999 to 2008, according to the report, and the 12 members of the bipartisan Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction have all reaped the benefits. 'Wall Street bought the deregulation that led to our economic collapse and the American public has paid the price,' said Nick Nyhart, president and CEO of Public Campaign, the group that co-authored the report.'

Why Don t the Deficit Hawks Want to Tax Wall Street?

Dean Baker, Truthout: 'The intensity with which the country s leading deficit hawks continue to ignore financial speculation taxes (FST) is getting ever more entertaining. While deficit hawks like Wall Street investment banker Peter Peterson, Morgan Stanley Director Erskine Bowles and The Washington Post never tire of preaching the virtues of shared sacrifice, somehow sacrifice for Wall Street never features as a part of this story. The refusal of this group to consider FST is becoming more striking because most of the world appears to be moving in this direction.'

Beyond Troy Davis: How Race Colors Death Row 'Justice'

Jamilah King and Hatty Lee, Colorlines.com: 'The state of Georgia ignored a mountain of evidence and killed Troy Davis on Wednesday night. But the movement that grew out of the effort to save his life has cast irreparable doubt on the country s death penalty system. That a man whose innocence seemed so clear to many - or, at the very least, worth of a second look - can be so hastily killed casts doubt over nearly every stage of his prosecution. And that fact has become a rallying cry for people around the world.'

Are we at war with Pakistan?

Antiwar.com
by Justin Raimondo

09/26/11

In the days before the Empire, generals - particularly Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs - kept their mouths shut. The Founders' justified fears of military intrusion into the political realm were still present in the American consciousness, and the idea that an American general might try to influence policy directly, by making public statements on controversial political topics, was considered outside the norm. Today, however, no one is shocked by Admiral Mullen s testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee that we are, for all intents and purposes, already at war with Pakistan...

Fading Faith, Rising Fury: The Fallout from the Debt Ceiling Debacle

Bo Cutter, New Deal 2.0: 'The American people are completely right in their accelerating level of horror at how our political system is functioning and how our leaders are behaving.

Media stories of a gravely ill 95-year-old grandmother forced to remove her adult diaper before being allowed on a plane and viral videos showing terrified children being intimately touched by TSA agents are more than depressing. They are a chilling commentary on the police state increasingly accepted by the American public in the name of security.'

Tennessee Joins TSA In Creating Random Check Points

by Pastor Chuck Baldwin

As I have noted in this column before, the one thing that the bogus 'war on terror' and 'war on drugs' does is it justifies and ratchets up the emerging surveillance state in America. In this regard, virtually every constitutional and historical protection of our God-given and civil rights are being systematically and thoroughly expunged--in the name of 'national security.' The State of Tennessee should be ashamed of itself--and the people of Tennessee should be outraged! The problem is, this kind of unlawful activity has been taking place for years.........

Plädoyer für die Qualitäten der stillen Menschen

Energieverantwortung den Regionen selbst übertragen

Was muss passieren, um nachhaltiges Denken, Leben und Handeln tatsächlich zu realisieren? Man muss uns selbst die Aufgabe und die Verantwortung übertragen. Wir müssen für unser Tun mit unserem Lebensumfeld 'grade stehen'. Erst dann liegt uns das positive Ende am Herzen ... Gastkommentar von Manfred Faustmann.

Plädoyer für die Qualitäten der stillen Menschen

Unsere Gesellschaft besteht zu einer Hälfte aus stillen und zur anderen aus lauten Menschen. 'Wir brauchen die Nachdenklichen mehr denn je', so meint die US-Amerikanerin Susan Cain und erläutert in ihrem Buch 'Still', warum das so ist.

Will Perry Halting Debate Lead to a Faltering Campaign?

Steven Thomma, McClatchy Newspapers: 'Is Rick Perry about to lose his momentum toward the Republican presidential nomination? The Texas governor turned in a weak performance in a debate Thursday, raising questions about how ready he is for the rigors of a tough campaign and how much Republicans really know about the man.'

Höhere Richtwerte bei Hartz-IV-Beziehern und Sozialrentnern notwendig

Die Linke Fraktion im Regionalverband Saarbrücken hat sich klar und deutlich gegen jegliche Versuche gewandt, die Wohnkosten von Sozialleistungsbeziehern pauschalieren zu wollen. Solche Pauschalen, so die Mitglieder des Sozialausschusses, Manfred Klasen und Mike Botzet, richteten sich im Ergebnis immer gegen die Betroffenen. Pauschalierungen im Wohnkostenbereich hätten das Ziel, Kosten zu Lasten von Hartz-IV-Beziehern und Sozialrentnern zu sparen.

Local Resistance to Corporate Personhood Wages Crucial, if Symbolic, Battle

Britney Schultz, Truthout: 'On the one-year anniversary of the landmark decision, a survey conducted by Hart Research found that only 22 percent of American voters were even familiar with the Citizens United case.... Accordingly, numerous groups have pushed for action in response to the case - and some have met with recent success, particularly at the local level.'

Judicial system too imperfect for death penalty

Freedom Politics
by Thomas J. Lucente Jr.

09/25/11

The McCleskey case is famous because it spawned a 1987 Supreme Court case, McCleskey v. Kemp. In that case, evidence was proffered showing the death penalty in Georgia had a disparate impact on blacks because Georgia courts condemned blacks who killed whites four times as often as when the victim was black...

Occupy Wall Street Protest Enters Second Week; 80 Arrested at Peaceful March

Video

Amy Goodman, Democracy NOW!: 'It is day 10 of the 'Occupy Wall Street' campaign. On Saturday, more than 80 protesters were arrested as hundreds took part in yet another march to Wall Street. Many of them were committing civil disobedience by walking in the street, but some say they were on the sidewalk when officers with the New York City Police Department used nets and physical force to break up the crowd. Videos uploaded to YouTube show officers pepper-spraying protesters in the face from close range, punching demonstrators and dragging people through the street.'
