They Will Steal It!

Thom Hartmann, Berrett-Koehler Publishers: "Here's the irony: We came to believe in the concepts of freedom, egalitarianism, justice, tolerance, and democracy without being forced to do so, and yet we repeatedly try to force that on others. Our military budget today is larger than that of every other country in the world - combined. Since World War II, we've been stuck in a rut that two of our presidents - Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy - explicitly warned us about, of relying on our military to help make the world safe for its democracies. The saner and smarter alternative, the higher road we need to be taking, is best demonstrated by the work of a man named Greg Mortenson."

If a just society is defined by the relationship between the well off and the very poor, we have big trouble.

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.

"The United States wants to believe in an economic upturn." Exactly, they "want to believe" it, and not only people in the United States. But is it so?

Unless we abolish this vile agency, the TSA will carry its war on Americans from airports, bus stations, and political events to highways, shopping malls, even sidewalks.

The US Empire still retains major clients and nearly a thousand military bases around the world. As client and puppet regimes decline, Washington increases the role and scope of extra-territorial death squad operations from 50 to 80 countries.

Feminist Human Rights vs. the Conning of Patriotism

By Kathleen Barry

The military, treat anyone who is not their military buddy in a combat zone as an enemy whose life has no value, who the soldiers are trained to think of as not even having a life.

"Greatest Nation" Rhetoric Roars Back

By Robert Jensen

The United States has brought prosperity to the world, protecting all that is decent against evil. Yes, we've had to muscle others out of the way on occasion, but that was necessary to bring order and liberty.

Choosing Suppression Over Justice

By Robert Grenier

The US has historically supported suppressive secular regimes in the Middle East, a policy with obvious shortcomings.

US Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) Daily Libertarian
by US Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX)

01/02/11

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...

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...
