I had a frightening thought today. It was that the Chinese are going to become wealthy from us all buying the products of their factories and then all the desperate-from-being-unemployed American workers would end up in labor camps making cheap products for the Chinese middle class.
Obama SHOULD campaign for a 90% tax rate on the wealthy (as in the good old days of that infamous Commie pinko Dwight Eisenhower). He won't do any such thing, of course.
Obama seems to be one of the biggest fools God ever created. He ignores or spits on his allies and bends over backwards for his enemies.
Sure! Cut the tax rate down to 25%, but at the same time, eliminate the loopholes that allow most corporations to pay less than 10% with the current tax laws.
Right-wingers like to site the tax cuts by Kennedy where he greatly reduced the tax rate on wealthy individuals. What they fail to mention is that Kennedy eliminated most of the loopholes used by the wealthy to avoid paying the high rates. So while Kennedy cut taxes, revenues were stable.
Of course, knowing Obama, he'll capitulate to the Republicans and cut the rate while adding more loopholes.
The four countries that did not sign the declaration (Australia, New Zealand, U.S. and Canada) did not sign it becaue they still pratice the Doctrine of Discovery. In fact, all four are passing legislation that essentially negates their signatures and they have already said nothing is binding. The only reason the U.S. finally signed is because it was mandated in the recommendations by the Universal Periodic Review document also recently issued by the U.S. This is the U.S. first time to be evaluated and they want to look good. If you want to read more about this, my blog at Truthout will soon be covering this topic in depth. Or read my University of Texas Publication textbook, Unlearning the Language of Conquest; Scholars Expose Anti-Indianism in America, and read Vine Deloria's chapter, "Conquest Masquerading as Law."
By the way, it was disappointing but predictable that Senator Bernie Sanders knew nothing about this. It just goes to show how really insigificant this vital matter is to all American politicians, including progressives.
I keep wondering about the end game of corporations running offshore everytime the country their exploiting begins to regulate. I mean eventually won't they run out of countrys they can run to, that slowly the global market is harmonizing, and even though the lowest common denominator is quite low, is it not realistic to believe that it will continually rise by default? I know it'll be generations before it happens, but is it not possible that the system will destroy itself? The only question is, will humankind survive the process?
OK Folks, this is it. There are 541 of us online. If each one of us donated $20 to Salem Children's Village that would be $10,820 -- and we would be over the top. Let's do it for Thom and Louise -- and for the kids... Happy New Year to All.... Please copy and paste the following message into an email and send it to your friends, coworkers, fellow transformers, and extended family. Thank you!

I am asking for your help to get the word out regarding a very important charity that Thom Hartmann founded. ‘Tis the Season for end of the year giving. I have little left over to share this year. I am deeply sorry about that -- there are so many worthy causes.... I want to tell you where my $20 is going (after a donation to progressive causes, of course!) in the hope that some fellow progressive out there might have the heart to make a larger tax deductible gift. Many of us know progressive leader, author and radio host Thom Hartmann well. Fewer know of his previous life as a rescuer of intensely traumatized children. In 1979 Thom and Louise Hartmann founded the New England Salem Children’s Village. Based on the work of the great humanitarian Gottfried Müller, Salem’s Children’s Village provided a family setting for the healing of children so abused and neglected that no other path out of their nightmares existed. Thom wrote about many of those experiences in his book "The Prophet's Way". That Village is still there, still saving lives and minds and spirits, still providing a door that is always open to the survivors of abuse that pass through those doors and out into the world; teaching love instead of hate, generously providing kindness instead of madness. I have been moved to simply reach out and ask: Please. Please. Fellow progressive fans of Thom Hartmann, support this work. Thom and Louise have done so much to expand the progressive movement and widen the circle of love, caring and concern. You and I are a part of that family circle -- and it is the New Year.... Please pass this on to your friends and associates. Thank you so much! And a very, very Happy and Progressive New Year... PLEASE POST AND SHARE!

"At this point, we will have only two choices: Raise taxes or cut spending. Given that the Obama administration is unprepared for this scenario, and has no sensible tax reform plans under way, this gives an opportunity to Republicans intent on big spending cuts. For anyone hoping to “starve the beast,” this will be a historic opportunity."
If you have written an article on our country becoming a Third World Republic and/or a banana republic, please let us know by printing the title on your Thom’s Blog. I would like to save it and have a copy printed out for family and friends. Thank you for any help!
Below are three articles that will open our eyes to the tyranny in our Third World country.
Bernie is so on top of it, not only does he agree with the caller that says we all need to get out to vote, he goes the step further and say everyone needs to educate themselves and get involved. How true, voting is almost pointless if you haven't a clue as to what (or who) you're voting for.
Got to love his political acumen too, he agreed with the caller and just added what was important, instead of countering it... I can see why Bernie has been so successful in politics.

He will give away the store as usual.
I agree with stopping tax breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas
Something should be done to eliminate the loopholes that allow companies to get away with paying no tax...that is immoral, unethical...almost criminal
is there any hope,though, that it could be changed? the "little people" don't seem to have too much say in matters...corporations do

PRAY: We honor all creation
Loving God,
we glorify your name;
we honor all creation
in whom you breathe your spirit.
As you touch Earth
and all who live upon her,
touch our hearts,
enrich our will,
expand our minds
to understand with compassion
and to act with justice
in all of our choices
affecting Earth
and every living thing.
Then can we
raise our voices higher
with your wisdom,
your compassion,
and incomparable joy
for all. Amen.
