Obama s sinister crackdown on the press

CounterPunch
by David Lindorff

08/20/13

We have entered a very dark period in terms of freedom of the press, not to mention the basic freedom of travel, association and privacy, when people like Miranda are detained in this manner. No one has suggested that Miranda, Poitras or Greenwald has broken any law. They are doing what good journalists in a free society are supposed to do. But the US security state, which has its tentacles now spread through most of the world, with client state secret services, such as the police in Britain, doing its bidding...

How Billionaire 'Philanthropy' Is Fueling Inequality and Helping to Destroy the Country

Joanne Barkan, Dissent: Philanthropy is the exercise of wealth-derived power in the public sphere with minimal democratic controls and civic obligations. Without countervailing forces, wealth in capitalist societies already translates into political power; big philanthropy reinforces this tendency.

The 'Bankization' of America

The share of our national income which goes to corporate profit is the highest it s been since they started tracking it in 1929, while the share going to people, as salary and wages, is the lowest. And the percentage of that corporate profit which goes to Wall Street is also the highest on record.

40% Of Americans Now Make Less Than 1968 Minimum Wage

The minimum wage would be $16.50 an hour, $33,000 a year, if it had kept up with the growth of productivity since 1968. To put the effect of this a different way, 40% of Americans now make less than the 1968 minimum wage, had the minimum wage kept pace with productivity gains.

How Much Data The NSA Really Gets

By Jeff Jarvis

Are Shoplifting and Parking Violations Less 'Minuscule' Than NSA Privacy Violations?

The danger of America s 'proxy war'

Cato Institute
by Erica D. Borghard

Waging war by proxy, whereby states provide nonstate groups with arms and other resources in exchange for fighting on the former s behalf, is an attractive policy option for states when they are hesitant to use force directly. In this case, the Obama administration s decision to arm the Syrian rebels is taking place in a broader context of American retrenchment and public wariness about extensive foreign interventions.
