Maybe the Tea Baggers will figure this out.....some day....
Thank you KC Guest :)
TIME TO WAKE UP. THIS IS A MUST SEE. Everything that the Tea Party and the Libertarians know is a lie manufactured by these two men. WATCH THIS hard-hitting investigation of the 1% at its very worst. This full-length documentary film on Charles and David Koch—two of the world's richest and most powerful men—is the latest from acclaimed director Robert Greenwald. These billionaire brothers bankroll a vast network of organizations that work to undermine the interests of the 99% on issues ranging from Social Security to the environment to civil rights. This film uncovers the Kochs' corruption—and points the way to how Americans can reclaim their democracy.
Lady Liberals
This makes me smile! See - when we vote with our wallets, they perk up & listen! There's a website that tracks various company's "buzz" score - meaning how well the brand is perceived by the public.
* After Papa John's CEO said publicly he'd be cutting employee hours to under 30/wk to avoid having to cover their healthcare their Buzz score dropped from a healthy 32 to 4!
* CEO of one of the largest Applebee's made a similar statement and their Buzz score went from 35 to 5.
And the list goes on! However Wal*Mart hasn't gotten the message - they still plan on cutting employee hours to force them on to Medicaid instead of shouldering their corporate responsibility. Apparently Wal*Mart feels they are like a Wall Street bank - too big to fail. Who here still shops at Wal*Mart? Just curious. {ms}
Insider's view on Fracking. Interview with Former VP of Mobile Oil (turned fracktivist) who reveals the true dangers of Fracking- devastating uncontrollable methane release and failing wells. http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/17605-former-mobil-vp-warns-of-fracking-and-climate-change
''Basically what the industry is doing is unloading all the costs of what it's been doing onto the public. Just go out and build miles and miles of levees around New York City and build drainage systems and things like that... We'll go on producing natural gas and keep the cost low by having the taxpayers pick up the cost of dealing with the consequences of global warming. Obama proposed some very positive steps toward developing alternative energies but he is not addressing the impact that methane has on global warming.''
A win for Europe, US needs to follow suit! Monsanto withdraws bids to grow GMO crops in Europe.
How Do We Stop Monsanto? It’s as Easy as This…
It seems that nearly everyone needs a boogeyman, and for many, it is Monsanto. This weekend, around the world there were marches in protest of that company. If you’ve read my page
Whiskey and The Morning After Blog and my article titled “
The Monsanto Protection Act and Why You Were Duped,” you may believe that I dismiss this movement against Monsanto as delusional paranoia. Those who believe that couldn’t be further from the truth.
I don’t believe Monsanto is intentionally poisoning people, despite a lot of the conspiracy theories that claim otherwise. What I do believe is that they are using all means at their disposal to corner the market on food products and seed patents so that we have no other choice than to use their products, and on their terms. They have a concerning amount of lobbying power over our elected officials, as evidenced by the
recently defeated push to require labeling of foods with genetically modified ingredients (something that’s supported by a majority of Americans).
Like Wal-Mart or any other major corporation, Monsanto wants to be the only game in town, and they’ll do whatever they have to do in order to achieve that goal.
