CORPORATIONS ARE NOT PEOPLE! If they don’t breathe, they’re not people.

We’ve got to pass some rules and get these wiley entities under control. If we don’t do something who will? One step at a time …

WE NEED TO PASS LEGISLATION TO GET CORPORATE MONEY OUT OF POLITICS

http://www.change.org

We deserve a country where our elected officials are not bought and paid for by Big Business. But this month’s Supreme Court decision in the case Citizens United vs. FEC overturned over a century of precedent and opened the floodgates for unlimited amounts of corporate money to flow into our political system. Shockingly, the court’s decision may even allow foreign corporations and large multinationals to manipulate our elections. If we do nothing, this ruling has the potential to undermine the very foundation of our democracy. —from http://www.change.org

The 2nd Revolution is at hand

Here’s a video I just came across. There’s a lot in this that seems right. We HAVE BEEN SLEEPING. We can wake up NOW.

Hey who would sign a bill they don’t read? COME ON! What kind of jokers are these people?

WHO do they think they’re kidding? Here’s a few of the things it would be good to get behind:
—Remove all privileges for Congress and Senate. In other words all laws apply equally to them as they do to us.
—Repeal right to vote for their own raises
—Balance the budget
—Congress does not pay into social security, they should.
—Limit to 2 terms
—They should get their own 401k instead of warranting full salaries for the rest of their lives after serving only one year.
—Make them pay their own insurance premiums
—Whoever didn’t read the biggest spending bill should be put out of office.
—Abolish the Electoral college and put the elections back in the hands of the people. Eliminate the middle-men.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_College_%28United_States%29

Just a few places to start. Let’s do it.

Peabody Coal Mining Permit Revoked!

This is great news and the beginning of a new day for all the people that live on the Hopi and Dineh lands in Northeastern Arizona.

To read the Intercontinental Cry article go here: http://intercontinentalcry.org/black-mesa-wins-peabodys-coal-mining-permit-revoked/

Peabody Energy/Peabody Coal has polluted these native lands for over 40 years. Taking advantage of leinient environmental laws that exist for Reservations. I am glad to see this sign that the tide has finally turned.

There is much pollution, toxic waste, toxic bi-products that have been left on the lands and post health risks to the that live there. There is arsenic and other pollutants in their once pristine water that cause the children to have bad teeth and are basically poisoning these people. This is a horrible situation that needs to be corrected. Our country has ignored and brushed under the carpet what happened here to the indigenous people.  This is wrong. People in other countries know more about what happened here than is in the general knowledge of people in the U.S. Peabody Coal is responsible, the EPA is responsible.  They need to provide funds to get this cleaned up in a way that is in harmony with the Hopi and the Navajo.

—From The Sierra Clubs December Press Release
“For three-and-a-half decades, Peabody’s coal mining operations on Black Mesa have been dependent on the sole source of drinking water for Navajo and Hopi communities. Between 1969 and 2005, Peabody pumped an average of 4,600 acre-feet of water annually from the Navajo Aquifer, causing significant damage to Navajo and Hopi community water supplies. ”

THE STORY OF CAP AND TRADE

by Annie Leonard

NOT FOR PROFIT Healthcare

Taking care of PEOPLE should not be for profit.

Congressman Dennis Kucinich is one of 39 democrats that didn’t vote for the Health Care Bill.  He didn’t vote for it because it means over 70 billion to insurance companies. It’s the wrong business model. Health Care needs to be seen as a service, not for profit.

Check out the Video from November 8, 2009
http://dandelionsalad.wordpress.com/2009/11/09/dennis-kucinich-insurance-companies-are-the-problem/

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pv65jlmvI04&feature=player_embedded

Having insurance does not mean Care — Insurance COMPANIES make money NOT providing care. They are for PROFIT.
With the Health Care bill on the table, everyone would be forced to buy from a for PROFIT COMPANY = more money for the Big Companies that don’t care about people. It’s a bonanza for wall street once again. It’s smelling really FISHY over there in Washington.

During negotiations on the bill, Kucinch said that , “The public option shrank from 129 million to 40 million to about 6 million.”
State protection against insurance companies was also taken out of the bill.”

There’s only one way we are going to be able to rescue the people from this horrible system. It’s to establish a not-for-profit health care system. The insurance companies are just in there to make money. They are not in there to help people. Companies by there very nature only value profit. The are singularly directed at all costs.

There may be some good companies out there, but the healthcare industry (that’s what it is) is full of greed and lack of compassion. We are smart enough to come up with something different. —from Dennis Kucinich video (see above) with my comments.

Contact your Senators, contact your independent newspapers. Our country has been taken over scoundrels a long time ago. This is just the phase we are in now. It is up to each of us to Stand Up.

Iran’s Election Results Questioned

Could it be the same thing that happened here in the U.S. is happening in other countries? Who are these people that think they can steal elections? We must each stand up and speak for what we believe is true. The truth will be revealed. Both sides should want the clarity for the benefit of the people, not a few individuals. If there is a side that does not want clarity for REAL then those persons are not in their positions with the proper intention — that of taking care of the people. We aren’t  6th graders anymore.

Music

Bill Purdy
soul, piano, blues, with latin heat.

…his name sounds like he should be running a Chevrolet dealership in Hogeye, Arkansas, but Bill Purdy is actually a damn fine singer/songwriter…The EP offers a seamless blend of soulful ballads and breezy up-tempo numbers, all of them anchored by Purdy’s keys – he plays piano, Wurlitzer, and B-3 here – and sandpaper-coated-in-honey vocals. The songs are catchy, a little bit funky, and as warm as a Memphis night in July. – Jeff Giles, July 2008, Eat Sleep Drink Music (ESDmusic.com)

___________________________________________

I wonder if both sides, Palestenian and Israeli could start chanting PEACE what would happen?

If both sides could start doing this and direct it toward the governing body that is malfunctioning, as it were — (to say the least). This may do something. This is what we all want.

We need to drive attention to the horrible human rights violations that are happening and call for a cease fire. We also need to embrace and support the bridges that are being built between these communities of people who live so close together yet cannot find a way to get along (more on that later). Perhaps we can delve deeper into our evolving spiritual essence and stop the senseless deaths of children, family members and friends.

We can do better.

**Thanks for all you do.
What everyone does everyday to promote peace and a sense of well-being in the world does make a difference.

Ethics and Integrity Are Overcoming Power

It’s about time.

The cloudy half truths used to manipulate the public no longer work. The “watchers” that keep the good and honest “heart” people from speaking their minds are not officially TURNED OFF AND REMOVED FROM THIS REALM. SEE YA!

Here’s some more information about Ethics and Integrity Overcoming Power
• Ian Lungold’s videos on Youtube. There are several series up there. This one in particular speaks about the cycle we are in and coming to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Stb0U0xTqQ&feature=related

Get out of your mind and into your intuition. Let’s roll —-
We are now in the 5th day according to the Mayan Calendar. This started November 23-24, 2008. Things are getting better. Those that have mis-used power can do nothing about it. It’s over. This is a part of the natural evolution of consciousness.
