Mike Ludwig, Truthout: The poll was conducted before an onslaught of ads funded by Big Ag players like Monsanto, but it remains to be seen whether that campaign can put a significant dent in the 2-to-1 margin by which poll respondents supported Proposition 37.

Thanks to Citizens United, Multinational Mega Lobbyist Firm Salivates Over $4 Billion in Campaign Cash

Lee Fang, AlterNet: ''For the WPP Group, which owns firms involved in the influence game from top to bottom, the more corporate money in elections the better. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, along with its state affiliates like the Michigan and California Chamber of Commerce, will probably spend tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars lobbying and running ads this year. We now have parties embracing SuperPACs and begging wealthy donors to cash. Obama s campaign has pledged to raise $1 billion.''

Citizens United: A Tsunami of Secret Corporate Cash Is Drowning Our Democracy

Isaiah J. Poole, Campaign for America's Future: ''Today is the two-year anniversary of the infamous Citizens United ruling by the Supreme Court that allowed corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money on political campaigns. Since then, our democracy has been drowning in a tsunami of corporate special interest money. Our government is under the thumb of the Koch brothers and other corporate moguls instead of the hands of the people. And citizens are uniting in their disgust.''

Mandate Transparency on the Anniversary

Lisa Gilbert, Huffington Post: ''Mandating transparency is well within the SECs' authority, and there is no time like the 2 year anniversary of this game changing decision to set the wheels in motion. The SEC should shine a light on corporate spending in politics and enable the public and shareholders to hold CEOs' accountable when they spend in politics. Otherwise, I fear the recap I will be giving of this election at next years' anniversary.''

The Nitty-Gritty on the Amendment Movement to Defeat Citizens United

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: ''Hundreds of protests across the country over the past weekend marked the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Courts' controversial ruling on Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission... which unleashed unlimited independent campaign spending and gave rise to the now-infamous super PACs.... A recent poll shows that 62 percent of voters oppose the Citizens United decision ... More than half of those polled said they would support a constitutional amendment to reverse the ruling.''

Fighting Back Against Corporate Personhood

Bill Moyers, Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc.: ''Citizens United is but the latest battle in the class war waged for thirty years from the top down by the corporate and political right. Corporations were endowed with the rights of 'personhood' but exempted from the responsibilities of citizenship. Thats' the doctrine picked up and dusted off by the John Roberts Court in its ruling on Citizens United.''

Corporations Are Not People

Thom Hartmann, Truthout: ''Most Americans don t realize that the idea that 'corporations are people' and 'money is speech' are concepts that were never, ever considered or promoted or even passed by any legislature in the history of America. Jeff Clements, a former assistant attorney general for Massachusetts, has written a brilliant and very accessible guide to the 2010 US Supreme Court Citizens United decision, how it came about and what can be done about it.''

Timothy Williams, The New York Times News Service: ''The suicide rate among the nation s active-duty military personnel has spiked this year, eclipsing the number of troops dying in battle and on pace to set a record annual high since the start of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan more than a decade ago, the Pentagon said Friday. Suicides have increased even as the United States military has withdrawn from Iraq and stepped up efforts to provide mental health, drug and alcohol, and financial counseling services.''

Afghanistan Soldiers Step Up Killings of Allied Occupation Forces

American and other coalition forces here are being killed in increasing numbers by the very Afghan soldiers they fight alongside and train, in attacks motivated by deep-seated animosity between the supposedly allied forces, according to American and Afghan officers and a classified coalition report.

http://bit.ly/zlVocM



Coalition limits details on troops killed by Afghans

Military commanders in Afghanistan have stopped making public the number of allied troops killed by Afghan soldiers and police, a measure of the trustworthiness of a force that is to take over security from U.S.-led forces.

US forces kill 3 Afghan civilians

The victims, among them a teacher, died in the Achin district of the province, located some 120 kilometers (74 miles) east of the country s capital Kabul, on Friday morning when American forces launched a raid in the area.

http://www.presstv.ir/detail/222067.html



Cost of supplying Afghan War increases 600% since Pakistan closed border

Using a Northern route to supply the Afghan War costs the United States $104 million dollars a month, an increase of $87 million from the $17 million it cost Washington when supplies were mainly sent through Pakistani territory, the AP report said.

In the wake of the killing of four of its soldiers and the wounding of a dozen more by an Afghan soldier being trained, France has suspended all military operations in Afghanistan and is considering withdrawing its troops. Germany and Italy have already declared that they will be out by the end of the year. As we have seen before, the US and Britain will be left holding the bag for what has been a disastrous attempt at nation building...

1?-Job als Erlebnisurlaub

''Die Arbeitsgelegenheiten nach der Mehraufwandsvariante, allgemein als 1?-Jobs bekannt, stehen seit Jahren in der wissenschaftlichen Kritik, werden regelmäßig in Praxisüberprüfungen verrissen und sind bei vielen unmittelbar Betroffenen verhasst. Das darf als allgemein bekannt vorausgesetzt werden. Bestenfalls ermöglicht der 1?-Job einen kleinen aber deutlich unterbezahlten Hinzuverdienst, denn das Arbeitslosengeld II schützt nicht gegen Armut und hat einen sowohl ausgrenzenden als auch demütigenden Grundcharakter. Die Phalanx der Billigjob-Befürworter bröckelt, weil alle schönredenden Begründungen einer seriösen Überprüfung nicht standhalten können. Nun hat ein Maßnahmeträger im hohen Norden ein neues Argument entdeckt. 1-?-Jobs haben demnach einen allen Beteiligten bislang unentdeckt gebliebenen hohen Stellenwert hinsichtlich der Lebensqualität. Der Vertreter eines Beschäftigungsträgers wird mit folgender Aussage zitiert: ''Was für uns der Urlaub ist, das ist für diese Menschen die Abwechslung."Der 1-?-Jobs als sechsmonatiges Urlaubserlebnis, - Erlebnisgenuss, ein Platz an der Sonne für einen erlauchten Kreis von Langzeitarbeitslosen? 1-?-Jobber werden zur Arbeit verdonnert und dafür auch noch verhöhnt. Wird sich das Jobcenter dankbar erweisen?''

Opponents note that the White House has never hesitated to use any new authority, no matter how outrageous, and that the trend of law enforcement and security agencies is to expand on powers granted, not to rein them in or limit them...

For-Profit Kaplan University Pays Executives a Quarter Billion Dollars, Courtesy of Students and Taxpayers

Danny Weil, Truthout: ''For-profit colleges have been paying lavish and grotesquely huge compensation to executives, both former and current, using money from student loans and government grants for decades. For-profit college executive compensation is currently under scrutiny by Congress because nearly all revenues that constitute the exorbitant and scurrilous executive pay packages come from federal grants, such as Pell Grants and loans, and such as Stafford Loans under the Title IV program.''

Zu den Unterzeichnern des Aufrufs gehören vor allem Gruppen aus der Friedens- und Antikriegsbewegung, zahlreiche Initiativen aus der sozialen und ökologischen Bewegung, antirassistische und Dritte Welt- Gruppen, sowie antikapitalistische Organisationen und Parteien. Unsere zentralen Forderungen sind: Die NATO-Besatzung und der blutige Kriege in Afghanistan muss beendet werden. Wir fordern den sofortigen Abzug der Bundeswehr und aller Interventions-Truppen. Wir wenden uns gegen die Umrüstung der Bundeswehr zu einer schlagkräftigen, weltweit einsetzbaren Interventionsarmee, die mit Landesverteidigung nicht das Geringste zu tun hat. Diese Bundeswehr gehört abgeschafft! Und wir fordern ein Verbot aller Rüstungs- und Kriegswaffenexporte und zwar ohne wenn und aber...'' 1.

Das diesjährige ''Klassentreffen westlicher Sicherheitspolitiker''[1] stand stark im Zeichen einer bereits im Vorfeld von Konferenzleiter Wolfgang Ischinger angestoßenen Debatte um die Forderung nach einer deutschen Führungsrolle in der Europäischen Union. Aber auch die drohenden Kriege gegen den Iran und Syrien sowie das Verhältnis zwischen der NATO und Russland, insbesondere in der Frage der geplanten Raketenabwehr, spielten eine wichtige Rolle?''

Die Ordinate wird auch in Sachen Krieg und Frieden stets nach rechts verschoben, auch mithilfe von Friedensnobelpreisträgerinnen

''Damit keine Missverständnisse entstehen vorweg das Bekenntnis: Dass die Friedensnobelpreisträgerin Tawakkul Karman aus dem Jemen die Menschenrechtsverletzungen und die Toten in Syrien beklagt, ist verständlich und richtig. Dass sie dies auf der Sicherheitskonferenz in München tut, ist unverständlich. Denn damit verbessert sie das Image eines
(regelmäßigen) Treffens von Leuten, die mehrheitlich die militärische Aktion und auch den Krieg als Fortsetzung der Politik und als Mittel zur Durchsetzung wirtschaftlicher Interessen betrachten. Mehr Sensibilität dürfte man erwarten, zumal die Lage in Syrien und im Nahen Osten insgesamt komplizierter ist, als es der in München dominierende Westen glauben macht?''

Who are the victims of civil liberties assaults and endless war?

Salon
by Glenn Greenwald

01/16/12

The fundamental interconnectedness between war and civil liberties abuses on the one hand, and the targeting of minorities as part of those policies on the other, is, of course, nothing new. It was most eloquently emphasized in the largely forgotten, deliberately whitewashed 1967 speech about the Vietnam War by Martin Luther King, Jr. (who himself was targeted for years with abusive domestic surveillance by the FBI s J. Edgar Hoover)...

America Wakes Up to the Reality: Inequality Matters

Bill Moyers and Michael Winship: ''So, no, Mitt Romney, when we say that Americans are waking up to the reality that inequality matters, we are not guilty of 'envy' or 'class warfare' ...

One Million Petition for the Recall of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

Mary Bottari, PRWatch: ''The petition drive to recall and remove Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker has surpassed all expectations, collecting over one million signatures in just 60 days. Petitioners were only required to collect 540,000 by law. They far exceeded this number, making a successful legal challenge of the recall highly unlikely. This is the largest recall in U.S. history.''

Bundesrepublik braucht Kehrtwende in der Verteilungspolitik

18. Januar 2012

Der Vorsitzende der LINKEN, Klaus Ernst, bezeichnet den heute vorgelegten Jahreswirtschaftsbericht als ''Dokument wirtschaftspolitischen Versagens''. Deutschland sei auf die durch die Wirtschaftskrise bevorstehenden Turbulenzen nicht ausreichend vorbereitet. Ernst fordert eine Stärkung der Binnenkonjunktur durch eine Politik für höhere Löhne und Sozialleistungen sowie die schnelle Realisierung eines Konjunkturpakets gegen die Krisenfolgen. Er erklärt:

Der Jahreswirtschaftsbericht ist ein Dokument wirtschaftspolitischen Versagens. Europa steht am Rand einer gewaltigen Krise. Die Prognose der Bundesregierung spiegelt die Folgen einer falschen Politik wieder. Das Jahr 2012 bringt keine verteilungspolitische Wende. Die Masseneinkommen steigen nur minimal stärker als die Preise. Vom Export kommen keine Wachstumsimpulse, weil Merkel und Rösler bei den europäischen Nachbarn gigantische Kürzungsorgien durchgesetzt haben. Die Investitionen brechen ein, weil es für die Banken attraktiver ist, an unregulierten Finanzmärkten zu spekulieren, als den Unternehmen Geld zu leihen. Die Binnennachfrage kann diese Einbrüche nicht auffangen, weil die Zuwächse bei den Löhnen nur minimal sind. Deutschland ist kein Stabilitätsanker sondern ein Schiff ohne Kompass im Auge des Sturms. Schwarz-Gelb hat nichts getan, um das Land auf die kommenden Turbulenzen vorzubereiten. Wir brauchen eine Kehrtwende in der Verteilungspolitik. Dazu muss es in der Bundesrepublik 2012 vor allem eine Lohn- und Sozialoffensive geben. Steigende Löhne, steigende Renten, steigende Sozialleistungen, das kurbelt die Binnennachfrage an und zieht Europa aus der Krise. Dazu müssen die Lohnbremsen aus dem Arbeitsrecht raus, und die Kürzungsfaktoren müssen aus der Rentenformel gestrichen werden, damit die Rente wieder mit den Löhnen steigt. Alle Sozialleistungen müssen darauf überprüft werden, ob sie die wirklichen Bedarfe abbilden und mit der Inflation Schritt gehalten haben. Es gilt die Formel: Wer etwas für die Bürgerinnen und Bürger tut, tut etwas für Europa.

Jobwundergerede ist eine Lüge, Forderung nach#Lohnzurückhaltung eine Farce

Zur Lage auf dem deutschen Arbeitsmarkt im Monat Januar erklärt die Bundesgeschäftsführerin der LINKEN, Caren Lay:

Wirtschaftsminister Rösler meinte gestern, er müsse zu Lohnzurückhaltung und Mäßigung bei bevorstehenden Tarifverhandlungen aufrufen, nur so ließe sich das ''Jobwunder'' weiterführen. Ich halte diese Position für unerträglich. Offiziell waren im Januar 3,082 Millionen Menschen ohne Arbeit, über
300.000 mehr als im Vormonat. Und dennoch spricht die Arbeitsagentur von einer fortgesetzt ''guten Entwicklung''. DIE LINKE hat auch diesmal nachgerechnet: Ganz ohne Tricks und Mauschelei liegt die Arbeitslosigkeit bei über 4 Millionen. Und von denen die Arbeit haben, arbeitet ein Großteil im Niedriglohnbereich oder der Leiharbeitsbranche. Das vermeintliche Jobwunder lebt von Hungerlöhnen, Existenzangst und prekärer Beschäftigung. Angesichts dieser Zustände Maßhalten bei der Lohnentwicklung einzufordern, muss für die Betroffenen wie Hohn klingen. Der umgekehrte Weg ist der richtige! Wir brauchen sozialversicherungspflichtige, existenzsichernde Arbeit zu guten Löhnen. Das beste Mittel für sichere und mehr Arbeitsplätze sind Löhne, die Deutschland nicht zur Billiglohn-Konkurrenz seiner Nachbarn machen. DIE LINKE fordert einen flächendeckenden gesetzlichen Mindestlohn von zehn Euro, diese Löhne wären armutsfest, würden die Binnenkonjunktur ankurbeln und neue, gute, Arbeit schaffen.

With his signature, for the first time since the Internal Security Act of 1950 and the dark days of the McCarthy era that followed, our government has codified the power of indefinite detention into law...

The entire hedge-fund industry is designed to hedge bets so big investors can make money whether the price of assets they bet on rises or falls. And if the worst happens, the biggest bankers and investors now know they ll be bailed out by taxpayers because they are too big to fail.''

Revealed: The FBI Secretive Practice of ''Blackballing'' Files

Jason Leopold, Truthout: ''Have you ever filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the FBI and received a written response from the agency stating that it could not locate records responsive to your request? If so, there s a chance the FBI may have found some documents, but for unknown reasons, the agency s FOIA analysts determined it was not responsive and 'blackballed' the file, crucial information the agency withholds from a requester when it issues a 'no records' response.''

Wir haben es satt! Krachschlagen statt Kohldampf schieben!

''Wir haben es satt!''

Während der letzten ''Internationalen Grünen Woche'' im Januar 2011 waren bereits mehr als 22.000 Menschen auf der Straße um gemeinsam gegen Dioxinskandale, Gentechnik im Essen und Tierleid in Megaställen zu protestieren. Auch dieses Jahr: Demo am 21. Januar 2012 in Berlin. Start: 11:30 Uhr, Berlin Hbf. Siehe die Aktionsseite http://www.wir-haben-es-satt.de/

Siehe dazu:

Aufruf an Gruppen, Arbeitskreise, Netzwerke von Erwerbslosen und Geringverdienenden

Wir haben es satt! Demo am 21. Januar in Berlin. Wir demonstrieren mit , weil es einfach richtig ist! Kommt zur Wir haben es satt!-Demo! ... Macht mit beim Krach-Schlagen-Block von Erwerbslosengruppen. Erwerbslosengruppen wollen mit Töpfen, Topfdeckeln und Kanistern auf der Demo am 21.01. in Berlin Krach schlagen dafür, dass sich alle Menschen fair produzierte Lebensmittel leisten können. Sie treffen sich dazu ziemlich in der Mitte des Demozuges, hinter den TeilnehmerInnen der Gruppen von SLOW FOOD und direkt vor dem Block von GREENPEACE (diese kommen wohl mit ihren Maisstengelpuppen). Erkennbar ist unser Block an der Gelben Fahne mit dem Krach-Schlagen-Logo und dem ebenfalls gelben Front-Transparent von der Demo am 10.10.2010 (mindestens 80 Euro mehr für Lebensmittel). Siehe den Aufruf der Arbeitslosenselbsthilfe Oldenburg (ALSO) bei BAG PLESA http://www.bag-plesa.de/rundbrief/2012/rundbrief-extra-2012-52.html#m1


Bürger, Bauern, Kaufleute: Wir müssen reden! Ehrlich gesagt: Wir haben nicht satt!

''Wie auch: 4,28 Euro sind für einen Erwachsenen für Essen und Trinken für einen ganzen Tag im Hartz IV-Regelsatz vorgesehen, für ein 14-jähriges Kind sind es 3,22 Euro. Davon wird niemand satt. An gesunde oder gar Bio-Lebensmittel ist da gar nicht zu denken. Was bleibt, ist der Weg zum Discounter. Und da suchen wir nicht nach Hinweisen auf Gentechnik oder faire Produktion, sondern nach den günstigsten Preisen. Weil sonst am Ende des Geldes zu viel Monat übrig bleibt. (..) Zu wenig Hartz IV ist schlecht für alle! (..) Mehr Hartz IV, damit wir es auch satt haben können!..''

Bundesagentur für Arbeit ignoriert Sozialgerichtsurteile

17. Januar 2012

Job-Center vermitteln Beschäftigungsverhältnisse mit skandalösen Arbeitsverträge, die unterhalb der Entscheidung von Sozialgerichtsurteilen liegen, kritisiert Werner Schulten, Mitglied des Parteivorstandes der LINKEN und Sprecher der Bundesarbeitsgemeinschaft Hartz IV, die Praxis der Bundesagentur für Arbeit.

Am 19. November 2011 urteilte das Sozialgericht Berlin in einer unanfechtbaren Entscheidung u.a.: ''Für das Jahr 2011 ist für Berlin bei einer Vollzeitbeschäftigung eine monatliche Bruttovergütung von weniger als 1058 EUR (netto: 815 EUR) sittenwidrig.'' Eine Nachfrage beim Job-Center Berlin-Mitte ergab, dass nach wie vor Vermittlungen in AGHE-Maßnahmen vorgenommen, die bei einer 38,5-Stunden-Woche mit 900 Euro brutto vergütet werden. Die Arbeitsverträge werden vom JobCenter geprüft und für gut befunden. Bereits im September 2010 hatte das Sozialgericht Berlin entschieden, dass für Berlin eine Vergütung unter 1.035 Euro bei einer Vollzeitbeschäftigung für 2010 sittenwidrig sei. Ungeachtet dieser gesetzlichen Vorgaben wurden nach Auskunft des Job-Centers Berlin Mitte alleine dort 2.600 Personen in AGHE-Jobs vermittelt, ein großer Teil davon zu 900 Euro brutto. Es ist ein Skandal, wie die Bundesagentur mit rechtskräftigen Urteilen der Sozialgerichte umgeht. Aber noch skandalöser ist die Tatsache, dass sich eine Behörde der Bundesrepublik Deutschland sittenwidrig verhält, denn die Vermittlung in solche Arbeit unter Androhung von Sanktionen ist dies allemal. Schulten weiter: ''In welcher Demokratie leben wir eigentlich, wenn staatliche Institutionen auf Gerichtsurteile pfeifen und sich ungeniert über Jahre so verhalten können. Durch die Androhung von Sanktionen und Leistungskürzungen, also der Gefährdung ihrer Existenz, werden Menschen gezwungen, sittenwidrige Verträge zu unterschreiben. Die Unternehmen, die diese Angebote annehmen, profitieren und gehen keinerlei Risiko ein, denn die Arbeitsverträgen enden automatisch, wenn die Bezahlung durch die Arbeitsagentur ausläuft. Ehrliche Unternehmer geraten so unter massiven Druck, weil sie gegen diese Angebote mit rein von der Öffentlichkeit finanzierten Mitarbeitern natürlich nicht ankommen können. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Arbeitsförderungsmaßnahmen müssen diese Arbeitsverhältnisse weder zusätzlich noch im öffentlichen Interesse sein.''

People who make wars

Liberty For All
by Aldous Huxley

01/16/12

The people who make wars, the people who reduce their fellows to slavery, the people who kill and torture and tell lies in the name of their sacred causes, the really evil people in a word, these are never the publicans and the sinners. No, they are the virtuous, respectable men, who have the finest feelings, the best brains, the noblest ideals...

Defense policy out of the Stone Age

Orange County Register
by Gwynne Dyer

01/16/12

If you are not allowed to enslave people any more, or even loot their resources, then what is the point of being a traditional great power? The United States kept an army of over 100,000 soldiers in Iraq for eight years, at a cost that will probably end up around a trillion dollars. Yet it didn t enslave a single Iraqi (though it killed quite a lot), and throughout the occupation it paid full market price for Iraqi oil. So what American purpose did the entire enterprise serve? Oh, silly me. I forgot. It was about 'security.' And here it comes again, on an even bigger scale...

Occupy campaign finance reform

by Ayn R. Key
01/13/12

The way to eliminate the Super PACs and to reduce the influence of money in politics is to eliminate the cause. That means removing all the campaign finance laws that led up to the point where the only way outside of the tightly controlled system is by people pooling their money in PACs. People forget that a campaign donation is indeed a form of political speech, and it was political speech in particular that was supposed to be protected by the freedom of speech clause of the first amendment (the freedom of religion clause covered religious speech)...
