With His Holiness The Dalai Lama, at His home in Dharamsala, India (Synthesis Dialogues - made into a movie narrated by Harrison Ford)
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
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."
Never shop there, ever.
I try NEVER to shop at Walmart. It's a rip off store to consumers and its workers.
I worked at Walmart for awile and saw benefits erode during my 5 years and they contine to slide downhill while corporate profits keep increasing. Unfortunately, no one in the stores near me will walk out because they all fear losing their jobs. I would shop elsewhere, but I'm out in the boonies and not much else around me. I do shope at othere store whenever possible.
I've been boycotting Walmart for some time, since I first heard of the strikes. I don't know if it's a national chain, but I now shop for groceries at least, at Winco which are employee owned stores in this area and I would encourage others to shop at these type of establishments and/or Union stores. We need a national boycott list ...any web nerds out there ....go for it! Also boycotting as many GMO food backers and foods as possible. There are lists around.
On a different note: Agenda 21 - lets call it what it is: the Chicken Little syndrome!
Lol, Target has better prices anyways
