I agree.

You would like Carolyn Baker's site. Check out Reimagining Prosperity...

In Texas it takes 620 hours of training to become a peace office and given a gun, It takes1500 hours of training to become a hair dresser and given a blow dyer. This fact is really scary.

yes, and hundred's more. I've done research now for 5 months 10 to 12 hours a day. My favorite website geoengineeringwatch.org is the best I've seen. The fight for right now is to stop this for at least 5 years so that they can get accurate readings of global warming. I can't remember off the top of my head but there is a big summit meeting in Paris in July concerning global warming and there are geo engineering representives and scientists that are attending and speaking. What will happen who knows.

I have written Tom 3 different times on the subject of Geo Engineering, weather modicfication. They have been spraying our skies for over 40 years fighting the suppose "global warming". The aerosol spraying by military jets has esculated for the past 10 year because of modern technology and they spray 24/7 globally. This aerosol spraying creates artificial haze, cloudiness, clouds and complete overcast skies. I have sent Tom several photos of these aerosol spraying that look like a line of toothpaste that stretch across the sky for miles. Each one expands and spread like sheets of clouds and remain for several days and can travel up to 18,000 miles. I have hundreds and hundreds of photos and videos of these Jets aerosol spraying right over my house. There are millions of people here in America and from around the globe that post photos and videos of these jets spraying and the MESS they make in the sky. I have more days of my sun covered and no blue skies than the opposite. Nobody takes the time to "LOOK UP" at what is going on their sky. It is highly toxic and made with nano size particles of metals, to reflect the rays of the sun upward. YOUR breathing it 24 hours a day. They have the power to control weather and create it by using HARRP and CERN. This is why all the extreme weather, it's literally weather warfare going on right above your heads. And they are deliberately melting the Icebergs for oil. They can create drought, flooding, tonados, hail, snow where ever they want. PLEASE, PLEASE LOOK UP, WATCH YOUR SKIES EXPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE IN A HIGHLY POPULATED AREA BECAUSE YOU WILL SEE THEM. This is so horrific and such a crimal act!! GEO ENGINEERING. I'm no expert but I know what I see!!

Dr. Econ -- I thought Bill Gates made his money by hiring the best lawyers around. He then stole the ideas of start-up companies that had not become big enough. For those that were to0 big, he bought them. He then proceeded to commit perjury saying he could not separate his operating systems from the application software. Bill Clinton was going after Microsoft with anti-trust laws.

W came in and said, I love billionaires and dropped the pursuit of justice. Germany didn't and fined Microsoft for $600 million.

Dr Econ -- Using Wikipedia as reference is a good way for people not to believe anything you say. Wikipedia is the same place that had Paul Revere fighting for the British.

gumball -- Where did you get the 14 years from? If it was from the same group, that would be impressive.

The link you provide is very strange. It says it was edited in 2001, yet it talks about a heat wave in 2003.

Michael Mann, a frequent guest on this program and one of the world’s leading climate scientists, estimates that we only have until 2036 -- 21 years -- to prevent the Earth’s temperature from rising 2 degrees Celsius, the standard cutoff point for “acceptable” levels of warming.

At least we are making some progress, 14 years ago it was stated we only had untill 2011.

David32, you think these fines that amount to 1 day's profit are draconian? Ha!

You could just as easily say people don't pay taxes, corporations do, because higher personal taxes mean people need a higher gross pay, passing the cost onto their employers. It goes in a cycle, and you're ignoring half of it.

Any body will be much better for America than anyone from the Tealiban Bagger Terrorist Controlled Republicans that are wholly owned by big money, and it seems that lately they don't even try to hide they are only working for their big money owners and not We The People. Ronnie Raygun was the start of the Wholly Owned member of the Big Money Owners Club, big money bought him the governors job in Calif. and then the POTUS job, and the big money groups saw how easy it was to get total control of the GOP they have continued to buy politicians from cities administrators on up, but the American people are smart enough to not allow them to buy the POTUS, and maybe 2016 the American people will rise up and go vote in mass numbers and take many of the senators and house members out and into early retirement.

So lets make the little people pay even more by shifting taxes to corporate tax collectors. When are we going to get it through our thick skulls that corporations/businesses DON'T PAY TAXES, their customers do!!!! You want to make the tax system fair, tax the wealthy based on their net worth and scrap the capital gains tax. I'd suggest starting at 50% of net worth over 1 million.

Moreover stop these draconian fines for corporate malfeasance that the little people end up paying and start locking the leaders up. As a matter of fact instead on naming corporations name the human leaders in press announcements. Its time we know who the real culprits are.

Rather than fines on corporations, paid by the little people, fine the corporate leaders along with their jail time. How about making banks forgive all personal credit card debt, the little people would benefit the most and what a economic stimulus it would be.

Any chance of these ideas catching on, probably not.

2950-10k writes: "The rich do not create jobs. a fair and moral economy, one in which the vast majority has plenty of money to spend, does."

First, the first part of that is obviously false, because there are some rich people who sell to rich people. Thus, the statement 'Some rich people create jobs' is true, and the statement "The rich do not create jobs" is false.

Employers actually have people create jobs descriptions, review qualificiations, post the jobs on the internet, then interview and select candidates. Because some employers are rich, that statement is not only false, but absurd. The employer is the agent responsible for hiring and creating the job.

However, it is true that the employer cannot create the job unless there is demand for the products the job produces. So, you could say 'The rich and the poor create jobs', but you cannot say 'The rich do not create jobs'. The latter is a nonsensical statement.

What would you say if someone said 'Oxygen does not create water'? Most people would think is a pretty stupid thing to say.

Now, the second part "a fair and moral economy, one in which the vast majority has plenty of money to spend, does." is also false. Every economy from North Korea to China to the US has jobs. The most equal to the most unequal. In all these places, many rich people are selling things to many poor people. Unfortunately, that is the way economics works.
