The rich man... is always sold to the institution which makes him rich.

Do we call this the land of the free? What is it to be free from King George and continue the slaves of King Prejudice? What is it to be born free and not to live free? What is the value of any political freedom, but as a means to moral freedom? Is it a freedom to be slaves, or a freedom to be free, of which we boast? We are a nation of politicians, concerned about the outmost defences only of freedom. It is our children's children who may perchance be really free.


The soldier is applauded who refuses to serve in an unjust war by those who do not refuse to sustain the unjust government which makes the war; is applauded by those whose own act and authority he disregards and sets at naught; as if the state were penitent to that degree that it hired one to scourge it while it sinned, but not to that degree that it left off sinning for a moment.
Henry David Thoreau

happyru]egularpeople - I met a man today.

Ever so briefly. He was tired.

His work boots grounded his humble, yet impressive frame.

As he gathered his rudimentary supplies from the small shopping basket
He placed them on the checkout counter. Slowly. Deliberately.

I dropped the tug of any angst to get home soon. A world was unfolding before me.

His life is hard, but no complaints. No groans. Just resignation on his weary part.

He clearly had a family to feed. Ever so meekly he appears to perform his life functions.

My heart began to bleed in pain and anger as I observed the programmed crap being piled into his plastic bags.






Congressional Cartel: List of Senators Who Betrayed Constituents in Favor of Biotech Dollars

Daisy Luther
 Once upon a time, a system was designed in which “the people” elected delegates to go to Washington DC. These members of Congress had the specific duty of representing the wishes of their constituencies when laws were being voted upon.

The success of last weekend’s March Against Monsanto should have made it very clear that a great many people wish to see, at the very least, labels on toxic GMO foods. The fact that this success was covered up by the media does NOT mean that the members of Congress were unaware of it – just the opposite. Our success was frightening, and that is why it was covered up.

Despite that, the day before the event, an amendment to the farm bill that would have allowed the individual states to pass laws protecting consumers from unlabeled GMOs was quietly shot down in the Senate with a vote of 71-27 against this right. The timing of this betrayal, right before a long weekend, goes along with the general modus operandi of sliding through things that will meet with objections from the public when they are otherwise distracted.

The failure to pass this amendment was due in part to Monsanto mouthpiece Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), the chair of the Agriculture Committee. Stabenow, incidentally, received over three quarters of a million dollars from agribusiness interests ($739,926 to be exact) in agribusiness donations. Stabenow utilized the propaganda that is being dispersed by the likes of Monsanto and the Gates Foundation to argue her point:
Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), the chair of the Agriculture Committee, spoke on behalf of the biotech giant seizing the opportunity to focus primarily on the myth that genetically modified ingredients feed the hungry people of the world, ignoring the fact that 64 countries now require GMO labeling. 
“This particular amendment would interfere with the FDA’s science-based process to determine what food labeling is necessary for consumers,” Stabenow said.  More here 

These congressional folk cannot get re-elected/auctioned/bought/ or, how bout, won by majority of popular opine, if you guys knew how badly us commons are being stabbed in the back by the vary same we sent to put an end to this SHIT....do you know your enemy?  you should

Despite the vast campaign donations the politicians receive from special interest groups, the recent grassroots movements like Occupy Monsanto and March Against Monsanto have proven that activism works without the huge budget. Even though Monsanto has a kennel full of obedient pet congress members, we can defeat the biotech enemy by spreading information. Teaching the public about the dangers of consuming GMOs, the environmental and health tolls of Monsanto’s farming methods, and the unscrupulous business practices that are designed to put small farmers around the globe out of business, is our most powerful weapon.

This is a call to action. Use the list above to make it clear that we will not stand idly by while our elected representatives betray us for the benefit of Monsanto.

  • Find the email addresses and phone numbers of your Senator HERE. Write them a polite letter or make a polite phone call. Firmly and courteously demand answers.
  • Use public forums provided to you on your local level to share information about the selling out of our health by these elected officials. Write letters to the editor, post on social media, and hand out fliers, being sure to follow local ordinances. Always be courteous to encourage dialogue.
  • Find your senator’s page on Facebook. Actively post in the comments sections and post on their timelines about your displeasure regarding their betrayals.
  • Use the power of social media to spread the word that these senators are the friends of Monsanto, and thus the enemies of food freedom and GMO labeling.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A judge has ruled that opponents of the Keystone XL pipeline in Nebraska can proceed with their legal challenge to a state law that paved the way for a new project route.
Lancaster County District Court Judge Stephanie Stacy on Tuesday rejected a motion by Nebraska state officials to dismiss the lawsuit.
The lawsuit filed by three Nebraska landowners asserts that Gov. Dave Heineman's decision to approve a new pipeline route was rooted in an unconstitutional state law. The law was passed during a special legislative session in 2011 as a way to reroute the pipeline away from Nebraska's environmentally sensitive Sandhills.
Stacy did not rule on the merits of the case, but said opponents should be allowed to present their




USAction Member -- We have reached a dangerous new milestone on the global warming front. Concentrations of carbon, the primary global warming pollutant, have reached levels we haven't seen since the dinosaurs. If we don't take immediate action soon, temperatures and sea levels will rise -- potentially displacing millions of people and wreaking havoc on life as we know it.
But thankfully, there's still time to act. Please join our friends at the League of Conservation Voters and tell Obama to take action to curb global warming pollution from power plants. Click here to take action or read more below.
Sincerely,

Dangerous New Milestone Reached
Dear USAction Member,

Tell President Obama: Climate change won't wait and neither can we!


Power Plant
Send a message to President Obama demanding climate action here.
add your voice

We have reached a disturbing milestone -- concentrations of carbon dioxide, the primary global warming pollutant, have hit 400 parts per million in our planet's atmosphere.
The last time there was this much carbon dioxide in our atmosphere was millions of years ago -- and it had a catastrophic impact. Average temperatures rose by as much as 18 degrees Fahrenheit and sea levels ranged between 16 to 131 feet higher than current levels.
But as daunting as this sounds, we don’t have to accept dirtier air and an increasingly warming planet as inevitable.
President Obama has the authority and the responsibility to enact the first-ever clean air safeguards that would cut carbon pollution from power plants.
But unfortunately, the Obama administration just missed the deadline for finalizing these critical standards for new power plants, and has yet to propose similar standards for existing power plants. So we need your help to make sure President Obama takes action as soon as possible.
President Obama has spoken eloquently about our obligation to future generations to address climate change. In this year’s State of the Union he said, “We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations.”
But it’s been four months since that inspiring promise, and we haven’t seen action.
Power plants are the nation’s single largest source of climate change-inducing carbon pollution.
Unless we dramatically slash the pollution they spew out, we’ll only see climate change get worse -- with more threats to our health and livelihood from extreme weather, smog, and more.
President Obama can use his executive authority to hold polluters accountable and cut this pollution. And he can also fight climate change by rejecting the dangerous Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, which would carry the most carbon-intensive oil on earth.
But we need your help to send a powerful reminder to the President today.
In his first four years in office, President Obama made big progress in addressing climate change by doubling U.S. use of wind and solar energy and creating new fuel efficiency standards that will cut the amount of global warming pollution from our tailpipes in half.
But we have to remind him that we will only be able to protect our planet with sustained action to combat climate change. With your help, we can send him that message and work together for a cleaner, greener future.

Thanks for speaking up,
Vanessa Kritzer
Online Campaigns Manager, League of Conservation Voters
