THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

"Imperialism today is taking place in the context of...the 'universalization' of capitalism. It is not now primarily a matter of territorial conquest or direct military or colonial control. It is not now a matter of capitalist powers invading non-capitalist powers in order to bleed them dry directly and by brute force. Now it is more a matter of ensuring that the forces of the capitalist market prevail in every corner of the world (even if this means marginalizing and impoverishing parts of it), and of manipulating those market forces to the advantage of the most powerful capitalist economies and the United States in particular." ... "Military force is still central to the imperialist project, in some ways more than ever."-- Political scientist Ellen Meiksins-Wood, Z magazine Nov 1999, p26

 

HAPPY 'KICK OUT THE GOVERNMENT' DAY!!!

 

Southern California Shanty Town / Tent City

Webmaster's Commentary: 

I relinked this because I am watching the corporate mainstream media screaming and crying and wringing their hands about what a bad thing it is that the bailout has not passed and how SOMETHING must be done to force those mean ol' representatives to change their votes and take $700 billion (at a minimum) from YOU and give it to guys so rich they can;t remember how many homes they own.

But the tent cities springing up across America, residence of people who have lost their one and only home, scarcely got a notice in the American corporate media. Indeed the first story about the huge tent city in Ontario was reported by BBC!

So, it should be clear that ABCNNBBCBS serves the interests of the ultra-rich. Looking at their news broadcasts it almost seems like there is no other news than how important it is that we should all give what little money we have left to the Wall Street "wizards" so that they can have one more spin at the wheel.

Folks, this bailout is not over. Rest assured that the congressional leadership and rich donors are screaming at congress to get this thing rammed through. Never mind that it won't actually improve the economy and to hell with the "Will of the people." Congress will take money that we could use to start businesses and create jobs away from We The People and give it to the banks so that they can loan it to us at interest ... so we can start businesses and create jobs.

DO NOT RELAX! The crooks are waiting for you to relax and think that this is over. Call, FAX or visit your congressmen.

Here is the list of who voted for and against the bailout.

Thank and support the ones who voted NO, because Pelosi and her goons are trying to get them to change their votes.

Then get busy going after everyone who voted yes, and let them know in no uncertain terms that passage of the bailout means their removal from office the next time they are up for re-election, and that if it is not this November that the blogs have a very long memory and no forgiveness. Remind them that if the bailout passes, you will empty your bank account the very next day and urge all your friends to do the same.

The other side is motivated by greed. They actually believe God wants them to have all of the money, and you living in a tent (or a cardboard box) is a small price to pay for them to buy another mansion. The only thing that will stop them is you.

THIS IS NOT OVER YET! Like Dracula, the bailout will rise from the grave to drain the very blood from the people of the United States.

Martial Law in Congress

earlybird

I think that We The People made an impact on our so-called Representative congresscritters. However, if Congress is still under Martial Law, it would seem that all these efforts might be useless in the end. But no matter what happens, the economy will collapse in due course whether bailed out or not. What goes up MUST come down--it's the universal law of gravity.
