In recent weeks alone, consider the temporarily thwarted efforts to censor and control the Internet (SOPA in the House, and PIPA in the Senate) as well. Think about the President s undermining of National Security, the abrogation of the unalienable rights of Americans to freedom of speech, and his unconstitutional end-run around the Senate when he signed on to a global Internet treaty (colloquially known as ACTA). Meanwhile, both Congress and the President are guilty in the passage and signing of the NDAA (the President s signing statement is a sop to critics at best)...

Fifty-State, $25 Billion Mortgage Settlement: Relief for Struggling Homeowners or Bailout for Big Banks?

Video

Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez, Democracy Now!: ''The U.S. Justice Department has unveiled a record mortgage settlement with the nation's five largest banks to resolve claims over faulty foreclosures and mortgage practices that have indebted and displaced homeowners and sunk the nation's economy.... 'The settlement, on the surface, does look like it's helping homeowners,' [longtime financial analyst Yves] Smith says. 'But, in fact, the bigger part that most people don't recognize is the way it actually helps the banks with mortgages on their own books.''

Economists Identify the 100 Top Air Polluters and Highlight the Economics of Environmentalism

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: ''General Electric, Koch Industries, Bayer, Dow Chemical and ExxonMobil ... all rank in the top ten of the Toxic 100, a list of the top 100 corporations that produce the most toxic air pollution and put human health at risk. The list, recently released by economists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, tracks toxic chemicals emitted into the air by top polluters and ranks the companies based on the toxicity of the pollution and other factors, such as smokestack size, prevailing winds and the number of people exposed to the pollution.''

Drones over U.S. get OK by Congress

Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It s ... a drone, and it s watching you. That s what privacy advocates fear from a bill Congress passed this week to make it easier for the government to fly unmanned spy planes in U.S. airspace.
