KINDLE: A Fantasy – On the Seventh Day – How a Burning Babe and Lynn Rothschild Saved Democracy in America

0Shares

#1 in Civics @ Amazon Kindle

All of the preconditions for revolution exist in the USA today, from a concentration of wealth combined with 23% unemployment to a government that has lost all legitimacy in the eyes of the people because of the blatant manner in which a two-party tyranny has sold out to 40-odd billionaires. Chris Hedges (Empire of Illusion) and Matt Taibbi (Griftopia) nailed it. All we are missing is a precipitant (such as a soccer mom torching herself on Capitol Hill) and a couple of billionaires that “get” the insanity of a 100% corrupt government making their wealth very vulnerable to pitchforks on the mansions and angry veterans putting 50 caliber bullets into their Lear Jets as they land or take off. This white paper offers a seven day plan for restoring American democracy while treating the elite to the most graceful Truth & Reconciliation process they might have prayed for. 7 Pages, 99 Cents.

KINDLE: Sanders for President as an Independent? The Game Plan

Democracy, Politics

0Shares

The integrity of the American electoral process matters more than any single candidate. Now that the Democratic National Committee has made it clear it is merely an extension of the Hillary Clinton campaign, the time has come for all citizens to see the value of demanding an Electoral Reform Act of 2016 such that both an Independent candidate for president — with a coalition cabinet and a balanced budget announced in advance — and a sufficiency of Members promising not to caucus with either wing of the two-party tyranny — are possible. The primary purpose of this book is not to promote a specific candidate, but rather the possibility of a Second American Revolution, a non-violent revolution that restores the power of the public over a government grown too big, too corrupt, too evil, for words. Open Power is possible now, in 2016. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and Angus King are among the Senators who have the power to sponsor the Electoral Reform Act of 2016. The questions this book puts before the public is these: if not Bernie, who? If not now, when? Seven Pages, 99 cents.

The whistleblower who exposed U.S.’s flawed security clearance system finally gets his reward

By Christian Davenport, The Washington Post, 18 December 2015

“I hate that we dump,” one of them confided. “What do you mean?” Blake Percival asked. The answer — that the company was cutting corners performing the federal background checks used in granting security clearances — put him on a collision course with his superiors and eventually turned him into one of the government’s most significant whistleblowers in years.

Tom Atlee: How Tunisia Imagined Its Future

Design, Politics

0Shares

What's this message is about: Within a month of toppling its dictator, Tunisia’s 2011 Arab Spring revolution was bogged down with a struggling transition government and a countrywide general strike. An ad agency that identified with the revolution (and needed the country to get back to work in order to sell its clients’ products!) decided to get all of Tunisia vividly imagining a better future. They convinced six brands and five major Tunisian media to spend one day together carrying nothing but stories as if it were three years later and Tunisia had become a prosperous, modern, democratic country. By the evening of that day people all over the country were imagining and debating the destiny of Tunisia on Twitter, on a special website, and in streets, homes, and media across the land. Suddenly returning to work became a revolutionary act. This post explores the implications of that remarkable event for the rest of us, and for democracy itself.

Imagine a country imagining its future together. It did!

Transgenderism/Transageism: New Pedo Frontier?

According to reporter Wayne Madsen, transgenderism will be used as pretext by which to legally expand pederasty. This article link he shared on his web site is about a 50+ man who abandoned his wife and seven children to live his “true life” as a six year old girl. As they say, you cannot make this stuff up, but this man's story (or former man, at least in gender identity) has been taken seriously enough for it to be featured in a full-length documentary film put out by a transgender group.

Kazakhstan: A poorly thought-out surveillance technique or an experiment for the West?

The Government of the Kazakhstan plans to implement a new internet control policy for the whole population starting from 1st January 2016. The announcement was published by Kazakhtelecom JSC, the largest telecommunications company in the country, on Monday 30th November 2016; and stated the government would oblige the population to install a “national security certificate” on every internet-capable device in the country, including desktops and mobile devices; leaving Kazakhtelecom (the ISP) able to carry out ‘man-in-the middle (MitM) attacks; all the other operators would be obliged by law to do the same, meaning that all HTTPS connections in Kazakhstan will be inspected.
