Great website for news on militarization within our schools: dignityinschools.org

Republican zero-tolerance philosophy got this idiocy started. The usual result for a wrong solution which has the advantage of appealing to simple minds with power.

Thom, you quoted I believe "Healthfacts. org" saying that two eggs are as bad for your heart as smoking. I was surprised you would do that. This is sensationalism based on an ASSOCIATION, which is not cause and effect. Far from it. You should look at a clinical study (clinical is the gold standard) that shows little relation to dietary cholesterol from eggs and serum cholesterol.
I am seriously disappointed. This is not something I expect from you; an educated and informed individual.

From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
