This article in such a direct, understated style lays it all out just what's the reality of America's shanghaied financial existence
David Patterson
Founding Member (since November 2006)It's important to be operational at both poles of the communication cycle we all have with Institutional media. We can't just be sponges and simply absorb and then as a stimulus response automaton, oblige the propaganda with the requested behavior. No, we must read and contemplate and decide if what were are reading is truth, useful, helpful and good, or if it is simply self serving manipulative language that benefits a special interest promulgator. A certain objectivity is a matter of personal responsibility, survival and most important, needed for personal integrity. So here I will read first, think and feel, and then react and respond. In the end this site is too top heavy handed to ever fullfill its mission statement. It's regretable that this little edit will be my last activity at Newstrust.
The Corpocracy works hard to maintain control of the duopoly political party system thus always being in a position to present the ostensible choices of candidates at election time, then turns around after literally stealing Americans wealth through useless endless wars, A Federal ... More »
This is just an obvious and rather natural extension of the Government’s over all “License To kill”. It starts with the death penalty, abortion, denying terrorists any right to defend themselves legally and now this. As with most things, Americans only have ... More »
Lack of financing seems to be a common theme through these reports of no construction work. Easy to blame the banks, but that probably doesn’t tell the whole story of how developers were allowed to over build. All these union workers idled makes you wonder about all those all of ... More »
Life is still about people, after all it’s people that are texting their friends or reviewing stories at a web site on the Internet. And while the Internet has certainly allowed me to interact with people I otherwise never would have met, I still find people to be rather the ... More »
This article ostensibly has facts and the strange Government statistics which seem to interpret the facts with a huge dose of cognitive dissonance.
A jobless recovery has an Orwellian flavor, no? Actually it’s pure truth, it means that the rich and their bankers recover ... More »
Dancing numbers.
Why not close Gitmo? Because somebody doesn’t want their budget cut, a certain corporation runs Gitmo for the Government. Why not have civilian trials for these terrorists? because all the lies might unravel about the so called War On terror.
You just get the feeling that an invisible hand is just laughing while typical Republicans blame Democrats and vice versa articles like this continue to misinform and misdirect the American people. Some day culture, will penetrate into the forces that continue to marginalize and ... More »
The people need help with Health Care, at least some do, but, the distrust and dislike of the for profit Insurance Industry is the populist impetus behind this movement. Political opportunism by the Republicans? Absolutely, but like reviewer Dwight said, how could the Democrats have ... More »
This wouldn’t be the first change of venue for a criminal trial. The problem seems to be that too many officials are running from this. How long can we simply bury these people and what if any truth there is to know about 911 they could possibly reveal?
As far as it goes and reports a story, I can only assume it's just fine. The story is important, the truth is well, rather nebulous as in, who knows?
Justice delayed is justice denied. We can dress this up any way we want as a Nation, we can hide behind Political parties, expenses, blow back fears, but the bottom line is, we have charged these people with a crime, it’s time to bring it all out in the open. It’s not ... More »
There’s a certain aloofness about Barack Obama. Yes, he worked hard for his own campaign, he actually toured the world while running for President. But now that he’s elected he seems to find political business a little repulsive somehow. I think in the end, he just gets a ... More »
None of this will ever insure that Americans will ever get a decent choice or be able to intelligently choose between options at the polls. Actually the “problem” is that both parties are corporately owned and the usual choice at the polls will be corporate candidate A v ... More »
The comments by Boston Globe readers give the insight into American reaction to this tired same ol. Not that what the people think ever really matters. The NWO and our foreign policy just march on to their own logic
This article assumes the American people have no real reason to be upset with the Government. The people are portrayed as just a bunch of spoiled cry babies, irresponsible and ungrateful for the wonderful things the rich and the corporations have allowed us to still have. This article ... More »
The gear shifting by Democrats underscored how the health care effort had been derailed by the Republican victory in the Massachusetts special election for the Senate last week, which effectively denied Democrats the 60th vote they need to overcome a Republican filibuster in the ... More »
Matching Federal Funds for employee retirement funds? Besides being yet another direct handout to banks and Wall street, doesn’t this sound a lot like privatized Social Security? All we need is the mandate. Obama likes to wait till the last minute to discuss mandates, remember ... More »
The guys entitled to his Opinion and as a published far and wide writer, gives it right here. So, what's my opinion, do I think we should keep Bernanke on because replacing him might make things worse? Well, I think Bernake's loyalties lie else where than just the simple American public. But then that's why a complete open, fully public audit of the Fed will never be done, because the people that own it(The FED) and the nations they are loyal to would get at least a shrug out of us simple Americans, perhaps even a raised eyebrow, ala Commamder Spock
This story has no real context. It doesn't show how this fits in with the changes promised with the Obama presidency. The story fails to point out how agencies that actually work for the positive good of Americans seem to be bearing the brunt of the cuts. While the pigs feeding at the trough seem to be guaranteed continued un limited access to Federal reserve funny money and deficit shenanigans
Oh like there is some doubt about a conspiracy of Media & political elites. I just never really knew simply what a jack ass Carl Rove was until I saw this. YOUR Government at work!
The real victums are the energy consuming public at large. These charades have no end in sight. BP oil and Iranian Oil interests both mutually benefit. Along with all other Oil interests in the New World OILder.
Fluff piece with a loaded poll as the annointing of the next President gets underway in earnest. Bush & Clinton are the tag team in the Whitehouse like Dems and Repubs are in Congress. Regiem change is impossible.
Inane comment string by USA Today Readers add as much to the Evolution debate as this new study and this article about it.
Maybe it's something about the income redistribution in genuine socialism that spurs the economy. More people having enough money to participate in the economy in a meaningful way.
This man was trying to illustrate that it is government that holds the children hostage by their corruption. It seems that more and more parts of the world are having the same problems with sharing the wealth.
This report is just an announcement. I would have liked to have liked to hear more about court's reasoning.
The Priviledge of Public service. In the elitistcentric cycle we're in the Emphasis seems to be more on the "priviledge" rather than the service. Even less the public. In good OpEd writing the standard is the righteous indignation. Is it justified? Is the writing persuasive? In this example my answer is yes to both.
Insurance industry again puts out of reach a service for regular working Americans. The Katrina story is too much about the Insurance Industry.
This is what's wrong with the whole Gitmo thing. There's just no credibility to any of the results or findings. But I suppose this is what it takes to prop up the preposterous war on terror.
Would like to hear more from Mr Bland about if these aren't myths created by native people finding the fossils. Then what would explain the similarities? I just like this stuff so I naturally think this is an interesting article.
Fascinating Article about how the "civilized" world fights over exclusive rights to either control or exploit new earth becoming accessible due to climate change.
The only thing right in this article is that Americans are tired of this expensive failure. Except the Corporations making this money. 4 years in and just now the "military" figures out the militias are a problem. It's sad if anyone really believes this.





Geithner Says U.S. Will ‘Never’ Lose Aaa Debt Rating
With infinite capacity to monetize debt and a compliant congress always ready to raise the debt ceiling, of course there’s no doubt the USA will never lose it’s AAA rating. This is the very thing the tea baggers were ... More »
