Some People In Wisconsin Get It

Kudos to this man (Will Williams) for telling the fascists in Wisconsin State Legislature how it really is regarding so called 'Right To Work' laws.
They can't handle the truth!

Big Money Doesn't Necessarily Mean Victory In Political Elections

Here's a quick fact ... $$$  Money doesn't necessarily win elections ... just ask incumbent Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel, who must now face a runoff election against fellow Democratic candidate Jesus 'Chuy' Garcia in April.
WOW!!!

AMERICA HELD HOSTAGE - Part V

Gotta love the hypocrisy of the corporate controlled media in this country.

Cancer On America

Shame On America

It seems these times we are living in here in the United States of America are some of the most INOPPORTUNE times since the Gilded Age of the 19th century when the "mega rich" and robber barons ruled the land.
America, for some bizarre reason, has chosen to go back down that path in recent years (35 to 40 years now it seems) as the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
Unions (of which I am a member of in the private sector) have been vilified by the power brokers who pull the strings on our nation's political leaders as well as by the corporate controlled media.
There was a time in this country when the Republican party (yes the Republican party) actually backed unions, but that was long ago in the 1950's when Dwight D. Eisenhower was the President of the United States. With this new greedy brand of republican, the party has gone extreme right and is bought and owned by the Koch brothers and others of their ilk and mind set.
Get rid of the Middle Class is their ultimate goal.
It seems these people are hell bent on returning our once great country back to the Gilded Age of the 19th century. Maybe I'm over reacting, but I do not think so. Even television commercials appear to echo this sentiment as there are now ads popping up showing an 1880's type setting with people dressed in garb from that era.
Strange but true.
Advertising is subliminal as we all know. Influence the younger generation and condition them to accept "the new normal," meaning low or stagnated wages and the fact that political leaders are now mini dictators of sort (in their own minds) rather than trusted public servants.
The only way for this to change is for people to get active and stay that way. Contact politicians directly and do not let up on them. Let them know you are aware they are under corporate influence and bought and paid for by "big money" from the special interests and political pacts that seek to endear the corporations and screw the regular people.
Add to all this the insane decision by the John Roberts led United States Supreme Court decision of 2010 that corporations are people and money is considered to be a form of "free speech" and the perfect storm has been created.
It was called "Citizens United" when rendered by the SCOTUS, but it should actually be called CORPORATIONS UNITED because that is who benefits from it. Corporations get the benefits of this decision, not the people of the United States.
Now comes word as well that President Barack Obama is a staunch backer of the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) which would further enhance corporate influence and give the moguls even MORE POWER over political leaders and the citizens of the United States as it would over rule any of our nations laws regarding regulations and possibly even wages earned by we the people right here in America.
In short, it is NAFTA ON STEROIDS!
Sickening is what that is. The people of this country have been beat down and practically forced to accept this crap over the last 30 to 40 years and most of it started with "Reaganomics" back in the early to middle 1980's when the late Ronald Reagan was president.
Slow but sure, it has gained momentum and former president Bill Clinton didn't help things for the average person in this country when he signed NAFTA, which was rammed through the republican led U.S. Congress in the 1990's.
Even worse, the media in our country sucks nowadays due to the corporate influence looming large over it as thanks to another signing of legislation by Bill Clinton in 1996, which had it's roots in 1987 when Reagan declared the Fairness Doctrine null and void. As a direct result of this, the FOX broadcast network was launched and roughly eight years later, Rupert Murdoch launched FOX "News" and we all know what has transpired with the fourth estate since that time.
Lies!
The American people are also to blame in all of this as so many people, young and old alike, have become complacent and allowed themselves to be manipulated by these forces.
True, many people today have to work two or more jobs just to make ends meet and therefore do not have time to be engaged in political decisions that influence their lives. But, one can do some research and not just be spoon fed information by the media or power moguls and believe such as gospel when it comes to politics.
Think for yourself for crying out loud and do not let the extremists tell you how things should be.
"The Way Things Ought To Be" is the name of a book published in the early 1990's by none other than Rush Limbaugh, the extreme right wing blow hard who has influenced so many other radio broadcasters following in his foot steps.
Shame on America!
Shame for what has happened to this once great country of ours. Shame on the political leaders for not having the fortitude to tell the big money interests to go jam it where the sun don't shine when it comes to buying their influence.
Shame on the news media in the United States for being compliant in the whole process and then just doing what their corporate bosses tell them to do, which is misinforming the American people.
Shame on the American people as well for not paying attention and thinking "Oh well, that's just the way things are these days."
Do something about it ... get informed and stay informed. Get involved and stay involved. Go out and VOTE not just in presidential elections, but in ALL ELECTIONS. They have impact on your life whether you realize it or not.
It's time to take America back from these greedy bastards and their ill intentions for the United States all for the benefit of their own bank accounts.
Corporate greed is killing this country slow but sure and that has been escalated in recent times and continues to be ratcheted up right now and will be in the future as well unless people take action and demand a different course.
If actions are not taken, expect more of the same, only worse as the screws are tightened.
It's up to you the American people to make it happen.

COMMON SENSE LOGIC

                                                          


                                             VACCINATE YOUR CHILDREN!!!

                                                          It's not that complicated people.

AMERICA HELD HOSTAGE - Part IV

Yeah the Republican led U.S. Congress is at it again, looking to deny millions of hard working Americans health care and the benefits they EARN while working all their lives.
They are once again threatening to repeal and replace the health care plan known as Obamacare as well as looking to rape, rob and pillage the Social Security fund so that it can be given to the criminal element known as Wall Street.

                DO NOT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THESE EFFORTS!

Patriots Survive To Win Super Bowl Title

The New England Patriots got a gift from one of the worst play calls ever in the history of the Super Bowl as they held on for a hard fought 28-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl 49 on Sunday in Arizona.
The Seattle Seahawks had the ball at the Pats' one-yard line with second and goal and rather than give it to Marshawn Lynch, their star running back who had 102 yards rushing and one touchdown in the game, they had quarterback Russell Wilson throw a pass that was intercepted by Malcolm Butler at the goal line to seal the win with just 20 seconds remaining.
Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady (pictured left) had four touchdown passes (with two interceptions) and 328 yards and hit wide receiver Julian Edelman for the game winning three-yard TD pass with just over two minutes left in regulation.
The Seahawks squandered a ten-point lead in the fourth quarter as the Pats scored two times in the final quarter to earn their fourth Super Bowl title since the 2001 season.
The Patriots earned the win with the fourth quarter heroics by Brady and company, but this game will forever be questioned as to why the Seahawks would throw from the one-yard line with Lynch in the backfield?
But it's all over for the 2014 NFL season and the New England Patriots are the Super Bowl Champions.
