CALIFORNIA: Let's Make California the First State to Label GMOs!

Dear Agnes,

In 2012, California's Prop 37 sparked a groundswell of GMO labeling bills
in states across the nation. Last year, Connecticut and Maine passed GMO
labeling laws, but those laws won't go into effect until other states pass
similar legislation. Let's make California the first state to pass a GMO
labeling bill with no strings attached!

Please contact your state legislators today and ask them to support SB
1381 to label genetically engineered foods in California. [
http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50865/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=13537
]

Last week, SB 1381 to label genetically engineered foods in California,
was passed out of the state Senate Health Committee. The bill now goes
back to the Rules Committee and then on to the Senate Judicial and
Agriculture Committees, before going to the Senate floor for a vote.

SB 1381 is a simpler, clearer version of Prop 37. Polls, both before and
after the 2012 election, showed that 67 percent of Californians support a
state GMO labeling law. SB 1381 is our chance to finally achieve what the
people of California want: GMO labels on their food. We deserve the right
to know if our food has been genetically engineered, just as citizens do
in the 64 countries across the globe that have mandatory GMO labeling
rules.

This is going to be a huge fight. Lobbyists from the Grocery
Manufacturer's Association are out in full force, spreading their
misinformation at the state Legislature in Sacramento. But we can win if
we act together. It's urgent that we pass SB 1381 in this 2014 session!

Please contact your lawmakers today and together, we can knock this bill
out of the park, and make California the first state to enact a GMO
labeling law with no strings attached! [
http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50865/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=13537
]

Want to do more?
You can give a shout out to Senators Evans, Wolk, Beall, Monning and
Delsalnier on Facebook and Twitter for their yes votes on SB 1381 in the
Senate Health Committee.

And you can call Senators Hernandez (916-651-4024) and Anderson
(916-651-4036) and tell them you are not happy that they voted no on SB
1381. Senator Hernandez's district voted 62 percent for Prop 37 in 2012.
And as Chair and Vice-Chair, Senators Hernandez and Anderson represent ALL
of California on the Health Committee.

Last, you can call Senator DeLeon (916-651-4022) who wasn't present for
the Health Committee vote and ask him to co-author SB 1381 and vote yes
when it comes to the Senate floor.

      DFA Member --

   TERRIBLE news: The U.S. Supreme Court just made it easier than ever for
   super-rich corporate donors to buy elections.

   This morning, in a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court eliminated the
   aggregate donation limit to political campaigns, allowing each wealthy
   individual to dump as much as $3.5 million DIRECTLY into political
   campaigns and committees every single election cycle.

   Once again, the voices of average working Americans are at risk of being
   drowned out of the political discussion by a new flood of special     
interest cash. We've seen the damage Citizens United did to our
political process.
   We can't sit back passively as the Supreme Court ushers in a new era of
   corporate control over our democracy. It's time to take action -- which
 is why we're joining with Public Citizen and others to hit the streets
TODAY
   in protest of this horrible decision.

   [1]Don't wait -- make sure your voice is heard! Find a protest near you
   tonight and take a stand against the McCutcheon ruling and corporate money
   in politics RIGHT NOW.

   Corporate activists like the Koch Brothers have proven they aren't going
   to go away quietly. They're hoping to overwhelm the progressive movement
   by sheer force of purchasing power. They think that if they buy enough
   ads, enough elected officials and enough judicial decisions that we will
   eventually get tired, give up and let them cement their control over our
   democracy.

   That's why it is so incredibly important that we take a HUGE collective
   stand today. We need to show the Koch Brothers, the media, and our elected
   officials that our votes are NOT for sale. That we will NOT just stand by
   while the Supreme Court sells off our democratic institutions to the
   highest bidders. That we will continue to demand meaningful election
   reform, and we won't take no for an answer.

   [2]Join the thousands of activists standing up for our democracy in this
   crucial moment -- click here to find a local protest and speak out TODAY.

   Thank you for taking immediate action,

   - Eden

   Eden James, Political Director
   Democracy for America

   [3]P.S. Today's Supreme Court decision demonstrates just how crucial it is
   for Democrats to hold the Senate come November. Can you chip in to help
   DFA elect progressive Senators who will take on Citizens United and
   McCutcheon head on?

How Do You Choose To Occupy This World?
by Ni?nn Emerson Chase



I have read numerous well-written, thoughtful, educational, and inspiring articles about the Occupy movement in this country by Occupiers and those who identify with the 99% movement. Some of these people are well-known and highly respected academics and award-winning writers, and many are highly knowledgeable and intelligent young people who do not want the future that the corporate-controlled rulers of this world have laid out for them. I have also read quite a few diatribes against the Occupy movement, accusing it of being nothing but an unorganized group of washed-out hippies, the homeless, and rebellious young people who don?t even know what they want. And I have met several people who still don?t know much at all about the Occupy movement (and could care less), because they are so wrapped up in just getting by in their own struggles to have a life. What I do know is the Occupy movement is a fast-moving ?happening,? in spite of the attempts to diminish its importance by the corporate-controlled mainstream media and the corporately-directed political strategists who use the police to do their dirty work.

I live in a state that has been nationally ranked as one of the top five states who have the most number of poor people living in them (per capita). I live in a county that is counted as one of the three poorest counties in the state. So, when I come across the more financially privileged and politically conservative people in my neck of the woods (actually desert) who deride me and my associates for counting ourselves as part of the 99%, I scratch my head in puzzlement and frustration at what I consider ignorance and an unwillingness to really look at all of the facts and truth of the state of our nation and world, and here in Arizona, the state of our fellow Arizonians?many who happen to be red (Native American) and brown (Hispanic) and suspect of being ?illegal? and ?alien.?

I grew up on Native American reservations in a very ?middle? middle-class family who, more than fifty years ago, recycled everything we could, conserved in our energy and water usage, and spent money carefully and conservatively. We lived a life of considerate compassion and respect for all human beings and had a scientific and spiritual appreciation for the web of life on our planet. (My father was a soil conservationist, a spiritual man, and loved the natural world.) We did not buy new cars and kept the used ones for at least 10 years, even up to 20 years, because my father maintained them so carefully. Like my parents before me, I still purchase most of my clothing, furniture, and other household items in thrift stores and resale shops. I, as well as most of my family, friends, and close associates, have never come near being one of those crazed shopping-spree enthusiasts who trample people to get into a store to buy the latest item that is faddish on the much-promoted ?black Friday? shopping day after Thanksgiving. So, according to the constant jangle from most economists, I guess we are not doing our part in helping the economy recover.

I was blessed to grow up without a television and have continued to resist being brain-stained and tantalized into personally identifying with corporate brand names, labels, and logos that are crammed down our throats through invasive, mass advertising that comes at us from all directions through multiple-media formats. Even while we are pumping gasoline at a gas station we are subjected to inane chatter trying to sell us something from a small video box sitting on top of the damn gasoline pump! It seems that most of us have to tramp back into a designated wilderness area to get away from corporate occupation of our lives.

Many of my childhood friends didn?t even have running water or electricity in their one- or two-room homes that housed large families, let alone other commodities that most of us in this country today take for granted. In that setting, I guess my family and I were the 1%, but unlike the nation?s 1% referred to in the Occupy Wall Street and 99% movements, my family and I were not taking anything away from our neighbors and friends or living beyond our means at the expense of the majority of our fellow planetary citizens and neighbors. We were where we were to share our knowledge and lives with our friends and neighbors who lived below the poverty level of the times, in order to assist them to become part of the middle class?in their housing, healthcare, education, economics, and lifestyles.

Unfortunately, more than fifty years later, not much has really changed for Native Americans when it comes to quality and dignity of life. Though some have more money and material things, the quality of their education and healthcare has not improved much, and neither has the quality of their psychospiritual well-being. But neither has the quality of most American?s psychospiritual well-being improved in the last fifty years, regardless of race or economic status. And why is that? Because of the increasing acceptance of toxic materialism as a way of life?a materialism that values money and power over human beings and our life-giving natural world. Unfortunately, now, the gains in education and healthcare that Americans had acquired in the last fifty years are also being taken away.

As those of us involved in the Occupy movement realize, we live in a world that is ruled by corporations who control political policies, practices, and laws and in an economic system that is dependent upon all of us?who are poor or of the presently-dwindling middle-class or even of the more economically privileged group?to spend as much money as we can, living way beyond our financial means, which is one of the factors that has contributed to the plummet into this terrible economic recession.

All of us Americans have been occupied by the corporate rhetoric that brain-stains us to buy, buy, buy?whether we need it or not, and without consideration of the cost to other human beings, other cultures, and the natural world that sustains all of our lives. We are intoxicated by the constant barrage of propaganda that comes at us through corporate-controlled media to grab a bigger piece of the pie, use our talents and knowledge for getting more money, prestige, and power. We are constantly being coerced to be selfish, fearful, grasping citizens in order to serve the current economy and the less-than-one percent that is the machine running the materialistic world. We are considered failures and become social outcasts of the mainstream if we choose another value-system, one that rejects getting more than we need and questions those who continue to feed the machine that is methodically destroying our beautiful natural world, our diverse cultures, decent values, ethical practices, and the well-being of us humans.

I live in a spiritually-based EcoVillage with about one hundred others who have occupied part of the borderlands in Southern Arizona. We have chosen a simpler life that challenges anything and anyone that damages the human soul and psyche, diminishes the higher ideals of a truly sustainable culture and society, and destroys the delicate yet sustaining web of life that makes up the natural world. We have chosen to occupy this planet in a manner that celebrates life, living daily in a manner that constantly strives for a more compassionate, scientific, and spiritualized perspective and lifestyle. We are religionists, environmentalists, educators, organic gardeners and farmers, artists, musicians, writers, parents, healthcare providers, and so on. And we piss comfortable people off, because we have occupied their comfort zones of complacency and greedy grabbing.

We are part of the Occupy movement in our daily thinking, doing, and being. We join hundreds of thousands of others in this country and millions across the planet who demand a more sustainable and decent life for all human beings and for all of life. Our EcoVillage and organic gardens, farm, and ranch are a functioning sustainable model that serves as a prototype and proof that a few good people working in harmony together and for the common good of all can make a real difference in changing the tides of greed, in any pocket of the world. We, like all Occupiers, do this through our talking, our writings, our public events, our educating, our music, our art, and, most importantly, through our own personal changes in consciousness and lifestyle.

Regardless of nationality, political creed, racial identity, economical status, religious (or otherwise) affiliation, or ideology, all of us Occupiers across the planet need to continue holding the dream of a much better life for all, and, even more importantly, to actually stand up for and actualize that dream daily in our own personal lives and the lives of our neighbors, as part of a huge planetary movement, a Spiritualution that is unfolding every day.

Agnes,

*The Supreme Court just ruled on a case we've been calling Citizens United
2: McCutcheon vs. FEC.*

And they ruled to decimate the overall limits that the uber-rich can spend
on our elections.

*ENOUGH: Time to meet in the streets. Find out where you - and friends and
family - can protest the outrageous, anti-democratic ruling the Supreme
Court just issued. [
http://action.citizen.org/p/salsa/event/common/public/search.sjs?distributed_event_KEY=706
]*

Today's ruling permits a handful of the very wealthiest Americans to
corrupt our democracy through massive campaign contributions.

*Take to the streets and demand that Congress and state legislators begin
to remedy this latest injustice to our democracy. [
http://action.citizen.org/p/salsa/event/common/public/search.sjs?distributed_event_KEY=706
]*

Together, we will turn a dark day for our nation into a day where
thousands of people took to the streets demanding change.

Thank you for all you do to make this movement real.

Sincerely,

John Sellers, The Other 98%

First Citizens United. Now this.


Petition language to Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia, John Roberts,
Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Anthony Kennedy:
"The McCutcheon decision is yet another blow to our democratic process.
The corrosive and corrupting influence of campaign cash on our democracy
is obvious. Overturning Citizens United is the first step towards real
reform. Until then, here???s a robe for you to wear complete with
corporate logos so you can at least be forthright about whose side
you???re really on."

Dear FREDDIE,

Corporate "Justice" Antonin Scalia
<http://act.credoaction.com/go/3918?t=2&akid=10334.6602212.PTL_uQ>

You and I might think we deserve a country where our elected officials
aren???t bought and paid for. But apparently Antonin Scalia and four other
Supreme Court justices disagree.

Today, the United States Supreme Court dealt yet another staggering blow
to our democracy by giving the green light for the wealthiest Americans to
pour vast sums of money into electing their hand-picked candidates.

The is another step down the terrible path the Supreme Court set us on
with its Citizens United decision.

We think if the Supreme Court is going to consistently side with
corporations and the wealthy at the expense of our democracy, they might
as well give up their pretense to impartiality. So we???re going to send
robes with the logos of the big corporations to the ???justices??? who
voted for Citizens United and this new terrible decision.

In the Citizens United decision, the Supreme Court turned on the spigot to
unlimited sums of corporate cash to flood our electoral system.

Since then, CREDO has fought on all fronts to overturn Citizens United and
end corporate personhood, with over 500,000 CREDO members signing
petitions and making calls. And CREDO has donated over $1 million to other
allied groups who are working to expose the negative impacts of Citizens
United and working to overturn it.

In today???s case, McCutcheon vs. FEC, the Supreme Court decided that the
wealthiest Americans could give the maximum donation to as many federal
candidates, political committees and parties as they wanted. The
wealthiest donors tend to support candidates who will promote the
pro-corporate agenda that made them wealthy in the first place. And if we
don???t turn back from this path soon, the U.S. will become a plutocracy
governed by the corporations, for the corporations.

The Citizens United decision is premised in part by a supposed lack of
evidence that campaign contributions can influence a legislator???s
behavior outside of a direct quid pro quo transaction. Just this spring,
CREDO participated in the release of a a randomized, scientific study run
by political scientists at Yale and UC Berkeley that empirically shows for
the first time what???s always been obvious -- that legislators give
preferential treatment to donors.1

The majority on the current Supreme Court look at corporations and see a
people entitled to First Amendment rights. They won???t even acknowledge
the appearance of corruption, let alone the presence of corruption, when
our election system is awash in campaign cash doled out by a small handful
of incredibly wealthy donors and corporations.

We know whose side Antonin Scalia and the Citizens United majority of the
court are on. So we???re sending them a new set of robes.

*** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ***

"All About Money", with host, John Sakowicz, returns to KZYX on Friday,
April 4, at 9 a.m., Pacific Time, with a special edition show with the
Public Banking Institute's new executive director, Gwendolyn Hallsmith. She
will discuss Vermont's initiative to make a public banking a reality in
Vermont.

Senate Bill 204 would grant the Vermont Economic Development Authority
(VEDA)  a banking license and would further direct 10 percent of the
Treasurer's bank deposits to VEDA for investment in Vermont.

We hope to be also joined by Vermont State Senator Anthony Pollina who
introduced S. 204.


BACKGROUND

Earlier this month, AP reported in "Over a Dozen Towns Support Public Bank
Idea" that "The majority of communities asked to support the creation of a
public bank in Vermont have approved the measure at town meetings.

"Supporters argue that instead of keeping its money in large global banking
institutions, the state could save money, create jobs and eventually
generate revenue by creating a state bank.

"The proposal would turn the Vermont Economic Development Authority, a
nonprofit agency that makes loans, into a bank. A bill pending in the
Legislature would put 10 percent of the state's funds into it."

John Nichols in *The Nation* reports in "Vermont Votes for Public
Banking<http://www.thenation.com/blog/178759/vermont-votes-public-banking>"
that "the votes were overwhelming. Vermont is not the only state where
public banking proposals are in play. But the town meeting endorsements are
likely to provide a boost for a legislative proposal to provide the VEDA
with the powers of a bank."

Robb Mandelbaum, in the *New York
Times*<http://boss.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/03/13/what-north-dakotas-public-bank-does-for-small-businesses/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0>
writes
that "public banking advocates point most hopefully to efforts in Vermont"
to emulate the model of the Bank of North Dakota, which "funnel[s] deposits
from state agencies back into the state's economy through a variety of loan
and other development programs."

GWENDOLYN HALLSMITH

Co-founder of Vermonters for a New Economy <http://vtneweconomy.org/>, and
the new executive director of the Public Banking
Institute<http://publicbankinginstitute.org/>,
Hallsmith said today: "It is clear that the bank lobby has a lot more
traction in the State House than the cities, towns, and the citizens. It
has been our contention that the state-chartered banks stand to gain by the
legislation, and that their interests and the interests of the large
out-of-state banks diverge on this issue."

According to Vermonters for a New Economy, the bill is encountering fierce
opposition, not from ordinary Vermonters, but mostly from lobbyists for big
private banks. The group says that when Senate Finance Committee hearings
began on March 18, the Finance Committee only invited representatives of
big
banks<http://us5.campaign-archive2.com/?u=3ac43b75213f93987ef72b91e&id=c0c4950917&e=41a83dcec7>
to
testify concerning the proposal. This led a local paper, the *Barre
Montpelier Times Argus
<http://www.timesargus.com/article/20140319/NEWS03/703199931>*, to call the
bill "politically unpopular" even though a large majority of towns
supported it in the town meeting campaign.

A study <http://vtneweconomy.org/node/62> by Vermonters for a New Economy,
the Gund Institute at the University of Vermont, and the Political and
Economic Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts states that
a public bank would create "over 2,500 jobs" and add hundreds of millions
in additional gross state product in the state.

According to the Public Banking Institute, public banks are
countercyclical, meaning they are "capable of reducing the negative impact
of recessions, because they can make money available for local governments
and businesses precisely when private banks decrease lending."

ANTHONY POLLINA.

State Senator in Vermont, Pollina introduced S. 204, the bill that would
grant the Vermont Economic Development Authority a banking license and
direct 10 percent of the Treasurer's bank deposits to VEDA for investment
in Vermont.

Is Charles Koch Un-American? Let Thomas Jefferson Decide
Posted: 04/04/2014 8:45 am EDT Updated: 04/04/2014 8:59 am EDTPrint Article

In a surprisingly self-pitying Wall Street Journal editorial, billionaire Charles Koch has put forward the proposition that the nation's "collectivists" have unfairly characterized him as "un-American."

What Koch calls "character assassination," however, others would describe as a simple recounting of the facts. Koch and his brother David are known for injecting massive amounts of their (partially inherited) wealth into the political process, academia, and propaganda in order to promote their right-wing (and self-serving) point of view.

But now that he's brought it up: Is Charles Koch really un-American?

I'm not comfortable answering that question myself. It promises to judge the person, rather than the deeds, and is all too reminiscent of the infamous House Un-American Activities Committee. (It's worth noting that, for a guy who resents being labeled, Koch is certainly quick to label his enemies "collectivists" -- a term which is strikingly reminiscent of McCarthyism.)

So let's turn the question over to an unimpeachable authority: Thomas Jefferson. He seems like an arbitrator all parties can agree upon. Koch even cites Jefferson in his own defense.  Unfortunately, all that citation accomplishes is to make it painfully clear that Koch is no Jefferson scholar.

Koch cites the following line: "The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground." This out-of-context quote leaves the impression that Jefferson considered the growth of government antithetical to individual liberty. Not so. It comes from a letter Jefferson wrote to Edward Carrington on May 27, 1788. Jefferson wasn't saying that the government takes your liberty, but that liberty is lost when citizens become passive in the face of infringements on their rights.

The NSA, not the IRS, is the appropriate contemporary target for that line.

Jefferson was very clear in the Carrington letter about which type of "government" he found objectionable: hereditary rulership. In his day hereditary rulers governed through monarchy. Today's unelected rulers, hereditary and otherwise, use their wealth to manipulate, corrupt, and control the political process.

Charles Koch may not understand Thomas Jefferson, but Thomas Jefferson would have understood Charles Koch very well. It was Jefferson, after all, who said the following:

"I hope that we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country."

While Jefferson rejected the aristocracy of money, the Koch brothers have taken the lead in organizing it. As a leaked confidential document revealed, they have aggressively courted other billionaires in order to create an organized network of right-wing political funders.

Now that's collectivism.

The Koch Collective has flooded the political system with cash at all levels. The Kochs themselves haveinvested hundreds of millions of dollars into extremist "think tanks" like the Ayn Rand Institute. Jefferson would have been repelled by Rand's vision of self-serving ?bermenschen and her contempt for charitable activities.

Wrote Jefferson:  "To ourselves, in strict language, we can owe no duties, obligation requiring also two parties. Self-love, therefore, is no part of morality. Indeed, it is exactly its counterpart." (Emphasis ours)

Jefferson was no friend of the business class to which Charles Koch belongs. "Merchants have no country," said Jefferson. "The mere spot they stand on does not constitute so strong an attachment as that from which they draw their gains."  Why, it's almost as if he had predicted the Koch brothers' environmental record.

(Koch attempts to defend his companies' environmental record, just as he attempts to deny "rigging the system." Unfortunately, too much of it is publicly known. Here's the dirt on their environmental record. Then there's the Seattle Times ("Koch Industries has pattern of violating ethics, environmental laws") and Bloomberg News ("Koch Brothers Flout Law Getting Richer With Secret Iran Sales").

Koch has created the modestly-named Charles Koch Institute, whose website says it is dedicated to "educating professionals about economic freedom and how it increases well-being ..." Jefferson would not have been charmed by this vision of "economic freedom." He was greatly disturbed by wealth inequality and was anything but an unwavering proponent of "property rights," another phrase that appears on the Koch Institute website.

Jefferson said this in a letter to James Madison in 1785:  "I am conscious that an equal division of property is impracticable. But the consequences of this enormous inequality producing so much misery to the bulk of mankind, legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property..." (Emphasis ours)

Charles Koch is worth an estimated $40.7 billion, a fortune which might've attracted Jefferson's "subdividing" eye.

What would Thomas Jefferson think about Charles Koch's hostility toward government and its perceived "intrusion" into the lives of the wealthy? Jefferson recognized that the unfettered greed or recklessness of a few needed to be restrained. "In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man," wrote Jefferson, "but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution."

The Koch Machine rails against taxes, but Jefferson was a strong supporter of progressive taxation as an instrument for reducing inequality. He wrote in the same letter to Madison that "(one) means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they rise."

Jefferson was also open to tariffs. He said this about federal taxes on the consumption of foreign goods:

"These contributions enable us to support the current expenses of the Government ... the revenue thereby liberated (ed. note: interesting word choice, "liberated") may ... be applied, in time of peace, to rivers, canals, roads, arts, manufactures, education, and other great objects within each State ..."

Today that would be called "stimulus spending."

Jefferson "collectivism" even let him to say (in the same letter to Madison) that "Whenever there is in any country, uncultivated lands and unemployed poor, it is clear that the laws of property have been so far extended as to violate natural right."

"The earth," wrote Jefferson, "is given as a common stock for man to labour and live on."

Collectivist? The guy sounds like a hippie.

Of course, it's easy to become simplistic about adapting 18th-century words to 21st-century realities. There's an entire subset of libertarian culture devoted to doing exactly that.  To truly understand the values of the Founders, we must review their fundamental and unchanging principles. As principal author of the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson wrote that "governments (derive) their just powers from the consent of the governed." He surely did not envision the kind of government Chief Justice John Roberts described in yesterday's McCutcheon ruling.

That grotesque decision is the product of decades of Koch-like infiltration of the legal, academic, journalistic, and political professions. It is this triumph of money over democracy, rather than any individual, which we must resist.

Jefferson had a solution for oligarchical rule, and he stated it plainly in the Declaration of Independence:  "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

Fortunately, we don't need to overthrow our government. We need to get money out of politics and end the corrupting influence of the Koch brothers and their ilk once and for all. The guiding principle has already been stated for us, in a document which begins like this:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal ..."

Present: Linda, Karel, Agnes, Ann, Daniel, Richard, Irene, Mark, Sheila, Jessie
 
1)  Charter County News- There was a presentation at the Grange which was well received.  Keith and Agnes did a powerpoint and answered questions.  The questions that stood out - "How will the Bank be Capitalized?"  Can we use the County "Rainy Day Fund?" There is a PBI website that answers most issues.  There will not be another meeting until after the June election.  Robin Sunbeam is running for office of Assesor/Clerk/Recorder to replace Susan Ranochek.  We need to fix wording by November.  Jessie and Agnes are looking at the 2 versions of the Carter and comparing them to get it right.
 
2)  Robin Sunbeam has an organizing meeting 3/20 and needs $$ for filing fees.  Agnes is helping.  Jed Davis spoke on TV about his fight against foreclosure.  On Friday 3.21 there will be a League of Woman Voters meet & greet with elected officials in Caspar.  It is to schmooze and support, not for formal endorsements.  We should not campaign as an Occupy group.  A committee of 4 formed to organize for election actions.
 
3)  Fracking - Keystone protest big event on Sun 4/27.  We will make signs for our Friday protests.
 
4) Navy Testing meeting at 4:30 at the Library.  We need a group with a plan to oppose testing.  ACTIONS to take - put on LISTSERV and ask Ed Oberweiser and Richard to put up on web.  Deadline for comments on Navy website was extended to April 15, 2014.
 
5) Community Rights - Water ordinance is being formulated.  Willits CELDF Representative came there.  It will be finalized by 3/30, after which we have 2 months to get 5000 Signatures.
 
6) MCTV is being harassed by lawyer Ruprecht as the Footlighters have not paid him all he wanted, and MCTV gave all they could.  The MCTV Board cannot dissolve formally until the settlement is accepted, and then they can go through the legal process to dissolve, after which the City and County can pick a new public access provider.  Earl Oliver, who used to work at MCTV is designated to handle the educational focus.  Elizabeth Swenson has been harassed and has come up with many pages of documentation showing just how much she spent on every facet of the operation.  The City did not keep up any paperwork and is very fuzzy on the business end of the operation.  We need to send in our Grand Jury investigation forms and ask questions about how the whole issue was handled.
 
7)  99% Rise- Richard wants us to focus more on the 99% movement instead of the Occupy movement, which has gotten bad press and publicity about negative protests, riots, arrests, etc.  That turns off a lot of people who would otherwise support our stand for justice.  We want to be inclusive.  Should we change our logo?  Sheila says "Don't let misinformation rule the movement.  We are the 99%.
 
8) Street protest - in newspaper it says we are there from 3-5, but it really is 4-5.  May 31 is a bon voyage for the bank, so we can move over to Chase.  We will make signs to Chase Chase away. We also want to come down on Wells Fargo  as there is news about their wicked predatory foreclosure practices, and a manual they distributed telling how to illegally block people from keeping their homes.  The big 3 worst banks are BOA, Chase and Wells Fargo.
 
9)  Phil Ting is mentioned in a letter Agnes wants all of us to send to Chesbro and Noreen Evans about requiring a letter of authenticity for banks to sign assuring that the documentation for loans are not frauds.  This is a requirement that Robin sunbeam will meet, as Susan Ranochek does not keep fraudulent documents out of Mendocino County and it is costing us money and foreclosures.
 
10)  We have $887.89 in the treasury.  We will need some money for mailings, etc.  We want to make some Public Bank cards that explain the banking system and  how having a Public Bank will benefit our County. 
 
11)  Kay Rudin came in late and gave a report back about the Bradley Manning trial, and her role as a Court Sketch artist.  She has a lot of drawings, and this was kept suppressed but was the trial of the century - and a huge issue of whistleblowing, justice, and the agony of endless War.  Right now Kay is facing a large delinquent tax bill and needs to sell some drawings or other items to save her land from a tax lien.  The land is paid for, but the County will foreclose unless she pays thousands in past penalties.  We will look into a Senior Tax relief help.

Thom's blog
Shouldn't GM Get the Death Penalty for 57 Cent Premeditated Murder?

 
Executives at General Motors have answered the age-old question of how much is a life worth. A life is worth 57 cents. Earlier this week, newly installed General Motors CEO Mary Barra was on Capitol Hill, testifying before Congress about GM's recall of nearly 2.6 million vehicles because of a faulty ignition switch, a problem that has caused the deaths of at least 13 people. But more importantly, Barra was answering questions about why GM knew about the ignition switch problem a full decade ago, but chose not to make fixes that would have saved American lives.
 
At a news conference after her testimony before a House subcommittee, Barra told reporters that, "I think we in the past had more of a cost culture." In other words, GM cared more about profit margins than peoples' lives. And at least with the ignition switch debacle, that appears to be the case.
 
When General Motors first learned about the ignition switch problem, executives and engineers got together to discuss how the company would respond. According to GM, company engineers got together in 2005, and proposed solutions to the ignition switch problem, which included installing a small new piece of metal called a "switch indent plunger".
 
But, statements in 2005 GM internal documents show that the company's executives decided not to fix the ignition switch problem because that small new piece of metal was too expensive and an unacceptable cost. So, how much did the ignition switch piece that GM executives chose not to fix cost? 57 cents.

Elizabeth Swenson has been harassed and has come up with many pages of documentation showing just how much she spent on every facet of the operation.  The City did not keep up any paperwork and is very fuzzy on the business end of the operation.  We need to send in our Grand Jury investigation forms and ask questions about how the whole issue was handled.

>7)  99% Rise- Richard wants us to focus more on the 99% movement instead of the Occupy movement, which has gotten bad press and publicity about negative protests, riots, arrests, etc.  That turns off a lot of people who would otherwise support our stand for justice.  We want to be inclusive.  Should we change our logo?  Sheila says "Don't let misinformation rule the movement.  We are the 99%.
> 
>8) Street protest - in newspaper it says we are there from 3-5, but it really is 4-5.  May 31 is a bon voyage for the bank, so we can move over to Chase.  We will make signs to Chase Chase away. We also want to come down on Wells Fargo  as there is news about their wicked predatory foreclosure practices, and a manual they distributed telling how to illegally block people from keeping their homes.  The big 3 worst banks are BOA, Chase and Wells Fargo.
> 
>9)  Phil Ting is mentioned in a letter Agnes wants all of us to send to Chesbro and Noreen Evans about requiring a letter of authenticity for banks to sign assuring that the documentation for loans are not frauds.  This is a requirement that Robin sunbeam will meet, as Susan Ranochek does not keep fraudulent documents out of Mendocino County and it is costing us money and foreclosures.
> 
>10)  We have $887.89 in the treasury.  We will need some money for mailings, etc.  We want to make some Public Bank cards that explain the banking system and  how having a Public Bank will benefit our County. 
> 
>11)  Kay Rudin came in late and gave a report back about the Bradley Manning trial, and her role as a Court Sketch artist.  She has a lot of drawings, and this was kept suppressed but was the trial of the century - and a huge issue of whistleblowing, justice, and the agony of endless War.  Right now Kay is facing a large delinquent tax bill and needs to sell some drawings or other items to save her land from a tax lien.  The land is paid for, but the County will foreclose unless she pays thousands in past penalties.  We will look into a Senior Tax relief help.

** FILE ** Bishop Wilton Gregory is shown in his Belleville, Ill., office on Nov. 8, 2004. Gregory, who was president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops for three years during the height of the clergy molestation crisis, has been appointed by Pope John Paul II to serve as Archbishop of Atlanta, the archdiocese announced Thursday, Dec. 9, 2004. Gregory, 57, who had been serving as bishop in Belleville, Ill., will become Atlanta?s sixth archbishop. He succeeds Archbishop John F. Donoghue, who is resigning.

ATLANTA (AP) ? The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Atlanta apologized Monday for building a $2.2 million mansion for himself, a decision criticized by local Catholics who cited the example of austerity set by the new pope.
Archbishop Wilton Gregory recently moved into a nearly 6,400-square-foot residence. Its construction was made possible by a large donation from the estate of Joseph Mitchell, nephew of Margaret Mitchell, author of ?Gone With The Wind,? a Civil War epic that made his family wealthy. When Mitchell died in 2011, he left an estate worth more than $15 million to the archdiocese on the condition it be used for ?general religious and charitable purposes.?
Gregory said that he has received criticism over the spending in letters, emails and telephone messages.
?I am disappointed that, while my advisors (sic) and I were able to justify this project fiscally, logistically and practically, I personally failed to project the cost in terms of my own integrity and pastoral credibility with the people of God of north and central Georgia,? Gregory said in a column posted on the website of the archdiocesan newspaper, The Georgia Bulletin.
?I failed to consider the impact on the families throughout the Archdiocese who, though struggling to pay their mortgages, utilities, tuition and other bills, faithfully respond year after year to my pleas to assist with funding our ministries and services,? he added.
The Catholic leader said he will discuss the situation with several diocesan councils, including a special meeting of its finance council. If church representatives want the bishop to sell the home, Gregory said he will do so and move elsewhere.
The purchase of the sprawling home was part of a real estate deal made possible by money from Joseph Mitchell?s estate.
In his will, Mitchell requested that primary consideration be given to the Cathedral of Christ The King, where he worshipped. The cathedral received $7.5 million for its capital fund and spent roughly $1.9 million to buy the archbishop?s old home, according to tax records. Cathedral officials are planning to spend an additional $292,000 to expand Gregory?s old home so its priests can live there, freeing up space on the cathedral?s cramped campus.
After selling his home, Gregory needed a new residence.
The archbishop said that he made a mistake while designing a home with large meeting spaces and rooms for receptions and gatherings.
?What we didn?t stop to consider, and that oversight rests with me and me alone, was that the world and the Church have changed,? Gregory said.
He demolished the one-story home on Mitchell?s property, which was donated to the church, and replaced it with a Tudor-style mansion. In January, a group of local Catholics met with the archbishop and asked that he sell the large home and return to his old residence. They cited the example of Pope Francis, who turned down living quarters in a Vatican palace and drives a simple car.
?The example of the Holy Father, and the way people of every sector of our society have responded to his message of gentle joy and compassion without pretense, has set the bar for every Catholic and even for many who don?t share our communion,? Gregory said.

Learning from the history of Civil disobedience Committee of 100 (United Kingdom) The Committee of 100 was a British anti-war group. It was set up in 1960 with a hundred public signatories by Bertrand Russell, Ralph Schoenman[1] and Reverend Michael Scott and others. Its supporters used mass nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience to achieve their aims. Before the Committee of 100 came on the scene, civil disobedience on this scale was virtually unknown in Britain, although the researches of its advocates uncovered it as a strand of protest throughout the centuries.[25] The Committee of 100, and parallel movements outside the UK (not least the US Black Civil Rights movement), made it a common method of social action, now familiar in the environmental and animal rights movements as well as in the contemporary peace movement. However, the Committee's strict insistence on nonviolence is rare. The Committee also popularized a new method of organization derived from anarchism and unfamiliar to those in traditional political parties, based on decentralization, autonomous "working groups" rather than executive committees, and without formal membership (Picture is of a Suffragette getting arrested whilst advocating for voting rights for women. This was fully acheived by 1928 for women 18 and over.)

Occupy,
As you know We have worked hard to stop fraudulent foreclosures.
We collected 500 signatures asking the supervisors to Fund an Audit of
foreclosure documents. We have been stone walled for two years. We finally
realized the only way to stop foreclosure fraud was for one of us to run
for office.  Robin , of occupy Ukiah, stepped up to the plate. Now she
needs our support. Please make a donation to Robin Sunbeam for
Assessor-Clerk-Recorder at P.O. Box 1133, Ukiah, CA 95482. Any amount will
be most appreciated.
Sincerely,
Agnes

PRESS RELEASE:
Robin Sunbeam will be challenging long-time incumbent, Susan Ranochak, for
the office of Assessor/ County Clerk/Recorder.  This is Robin?s first
foray into electoral politics.

For the last ten years, Ms. Sunbeam has worked as the School Nurse for
River Oak Charter School, as well as in the Windsor Unified School
District and Santa Rosa City Schools.  She is a CA Registered Nurse with a
CA School Nurse Credential.  In 1993, Robin earned a MSN from UC San
Francisco in Community Health Nursing, with a minor in administration.
Her Master?s Thesis was a business plan for a rural, nurse-run clinic,
which was put on display in the UCSF library.

Robin served as Treasurer for both River Oak Charter School Education
Foundation and the Move to Amend Coalition of Mendocino County (MTACMC).
She was on the team of the MTACMC that brought us Measure F in November
2012, which garnered nearly 75% of the popular vote.  And you may also
have seen her many letters to the editor in our local newspapers.

When asked why she is running for Assessor/County Clerk/Recorder, Ms.
Sunbeam replied, ?When I see injustice, I feel like I must set things
straight. As the recent historic bank settlements have demonstrated, the
big banks have robbed us all!  And there is something we can do on the
county level to protect the public from predatory banksters.  As Recorder,
I will conduct a foreclosure audit to see the true extent of the fraud
problem to date in Mendocino County.  I will carefully scrutinize all new
foreclosure documents for evidence of fraud and demand a clear chain of
title before recording them.  The bank foreclosure-fraud debacle has left
countless destroyed homeowners in its wake, and there are still many more
Mendocino County homeowners, your friends and mine, struggling to save
their homes.

?Considering the enormity of the injustice and the avenue to ameliorate it
through the Recorder?s Office, I was invited to run and decided to take
the responsibility to step up and serve.?  Robin will also advocate for
easier access to polling places, and timely property tax assessments.

She added, ?I?m not waiting for ?them? to come and fix things.  I'm going
to do it!  In a Democracy, we should all be saying, ?I'm going to do it.?
If not us, then who?  And if not now, when??

I wish everyone from our groups would send an email to this person at
Butler and Hosch who owns Cal Western.

I just want you and everyone to know just how awful Wells Fargo and Cal
Western are.

They wont even talk to me about my status so I expect to see a minimum bid
Monday.

Loosing my paid in full home of 26 years will be FATAL to me and my 6
animals.  &#58383;&#58383;&#58383;&#58383;&#58383;

Cynthia.

   Apologies for the delay. GONN uses livestream.com as well, so they will
pick up the stream once it goes live.

If you are tweeting from an account, we can do the same, plus the hashtag
you want to use.

Yours Respectfully.

Kudos to  Mark for his email to Cynthia whose paid for house may be sold
unless we raise a ruckus.  You could send the same message to Cal Western
and Wells Fargo.

Dear Occupiers,

Does anyone have clarity as to which of these unacceptable alternatives is least dire, & should be favored when commenting to www.NWTTEIS.com? Deadlineto submit comments is Tuesday 4/15. I am composing my own screed & would welcome any suggestions re jargon, etc.


Thanks,

Liz









No Action Alternative
 
Under the No Action Alternative, the Navy would continue current 
training and testing activities as defined by existing environmental 
planning documents, including the Northwest Training Range Complex 
EIS/OEIS and the Naval Sea Systems Command Naval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport Range Complex Extension EIS/OEIS. The baseline testing 
activities also include other testing events that historically occur in 
the NWTT Study Area (see Figure 1) and have been subject to previous 
analysis pursuant to NEPA and Executive Order 12114. Analysis of the No 
Action Alternative provides a baseline, enabling decision makers to 
compare the magnitude of the environmental effects of no action (current activities) to the effects of the action alternatives. Baseline 
activities do not include training with sonar in Puget Sound.

Alternative 1
Alternative 1 includes adjustments to types and levels from baseline 
activities conducted in the NWTT Study Area to support current and 
planned Navy at-sea training and testing requirements. Under Alternative 1, sink exercises would be eliminated.
Alternative 1 includes:
	* Testing activities at Navy pierside locations in Puget Sound, 
the Carr Inlet Operations Area and the Southeast Alaska Acoustic 
Measurement Facility 
	* Mission requirements associated with force structure changes, 
including those resulting from the development, testing and introduction of new vessels, aircraft and weapons systems into the fleet 

Alternative 1 includes some activities that were not analyzed in previous documents. New activities being considered include:
	* Use of new and existing unmanned vehicles and their acoustic 
sensors, in support of homeland security and anti-terrorism/force 
protection. This type of training is critical in protecting the nation?s military and civilian harbors, ports and shipping lanes. 
	* Use of 0.50-caliber blanks in Puget Sound in support of force 
protection training of the Navy?s Maritime Expeditionary Security Force. 
	* Addition of a biennial maritime homeland defense mine 
countermeasure training exercise in Puget Sound and analyzing the amount of time acoustic sensors are used during that event.

Alternative 2
Alternative 2 includes all activities in Alternative 1 plus 
adjustments to the type and level of training and testing activities. 
Under Alternative 2, sink exercises would be eliminated.

While going through all the deductions I could claim, I was forced to leave blank all the slots available for purchasing a second home, buying a boat, drilling for oil, selling stocks, borrowing money to buy stocks, inheriting wealth, or having money in foreign bank accounts. People scraping by to make a living don?t have the money to purchase a second home or buy a few thousand shares of stock, and pay about a third of their income in taxes.

URGENT ASSISTANCE - FROM USA

IMMEDIATE ATTENTION NEEDED : HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

FROM: GEORGE WALKER BUSH
202.456.1414 / 202.456.1111
FAX: 202.456.2461

DEAR SIR / MADAM,

I AM GEORGE WALKER BUSH, SON OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA GEORGE HERBERT WALKER BUSH, AND CURRENTLY SERVING AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THIS LETTER MIGHT SURPRISE YOU BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT MET NEITHER IN PERSON NOR BY CORRESPONDENCE. I CAME TO KNOW OF YOU IN MY SEARCH FOR A RELIABLE AND REPUTABLE PERSON TO HANDLE A VERY CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION, WHICH INVOLVES THE TRANSFER OF A HUGE SUM OF MONEY TO AN ACCOUNT REQUIRING MAXIMUM CONFIDENCE.


I AM WRITING YOU IN ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE PRIMARILY TO SEEK YOUR ASSISTANCE IN ACQUIRING OIL FUNDS THAT ARE PRESENTLY TRAPPED IN THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ. MY PARTNERS AND I SOLICIT YOUR ASSISTANCE IN COMPLETING A TRANSACTION BEGUN BY MY FATHER, WHO HAS LONG BEEN ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN THE EXTRACTION OF PETROLEUM IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND BRAVELY SERVED HIS COUNTRY AS DIRECTOR OF THE UNITED STATES CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY.

IN THE DECADE OF THE NINETEEN-EIGHTIES, MY FATHER, THEN VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, SOUGHT TO WORK WITH THE GOOD OFFICES OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ TO REGAIN LOST OIL REVENUE SOURCES IN THE NEIGHBORING ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN. THIS UNSUCCESSFUL VENTURE WAS SOON FOLLOWED BY A FALLING-OUT WITH HIS IRAQI PARTNER, WHO SOUGHT TO ACQUIRE ADDITIONAL OIL REVENUE SOURCES IN THE NEIGHBORING EMIRATE OF KUWAIT, A WHOLLY-OWNED U.S.-BRITISH SUBSIDIARY.

MY FATHER RE-SECURED THE PETROLEUM ASSETS OF KUWAIT IN 1991 AT A COST OF SIXTY-ONE BILLION U.S. DOLLARS ($61,000,000,000). OUT OF THAT COST, THIRTY-SIX BILLION DOLLARS ($36,000,000,000) WERE SUPPLIED BY HIS PARTNERS IN THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA AND OTHER PERSIAN GULF MONARCHIES, AND SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS ($16,000,000,000) BY GERMAN AND JAPANESE PARTNERS. BUT MY FATHER'S FORMER IRAQI BUSINESS PARTNER REMAINED IN CONTROL OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ AND ITS PETROLEUM RESERVES.

MY FAMILY IS CALLING FOR YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE IN FUNDING THE REMOVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF IRAQ AND ACQUIRING THE PETROLEUM ASSETS OF HIS COUNTRY, AS COMPENSATION FOR THE COSTS OF REMOVING HIM FROM POWER. UNFORTUNATELY, OUR PARTNERS FROM 1991 ARE NOT WILLING TO SHOULDER THE BURDEN OF THIS NEW VENTURE, WHICH IN ITS UPCOMING PHASE MAY COST THE SUM OF 100 BILLION TO 200 BILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000,000 - $200,000,000,000), BOTH IN THE INITIAL ACQUISITION AND IN LONG-TERM MANAGEMENT.

WITHOUT THE FUNDS FROM OUR 1991 PARTNERS, WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE THE OIL REVENUE TRAPPED WITHIN IRAQ. THAT IS WHY MY FAMILY AND OUR COLLEAGUES ARE URGENTLY SEEKING YOUR GRACIOUS ASSISTANCE. OUR DISTINGUISHED COLLEAGUES IN THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION INCLUDE THE SITTING VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, RICHARD CHENEY, WHO IS AN ORIGINAL PARTNER IN THE IRAQ VENTURE AND FORMER HEAD OF THE HALLIBURTON OIL COMPANY, AND CONDOLEEZA RICE, WHOSE PROFESSIONAL DEDICATION TO THE VENTURE WAS DEMONSTRATED IN THE NAMING OF A CHEVRON OIL TANKER AFTER HER.

I WOULD BESEECH YOU TO TRANSFER A SUM EQUALING TEN TO TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT (10-25 %) OF YOUR YEARLY INCOME TO OUR ACCOUNT TO AID IN THIS IMPORTANT VENTURE. THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL FUNCTION AS OUR TRUSTED INTERMEDIARY. I PROPOSE THAT YOU MAKE THIS TRANSFER BEFORE THE FIFTEENTH (15TH) OF THE MONTH OF APRIL.

I KNOW THAT A TRANSACTION OF THIS MAGNITUDE WOULD MAKE ANYONE APPREHENSIVE AND WORRIED. BUT I AM ASSURING YOU THAT ALL WILL BE WELL AT THE END OF THE DAY. A BOLD STEP TAKEN SHALL NOT BE REGRETTED, I ASSURE YOU. PLEASE DO BE INFORMED THAT THIS BUSINESS TRANSACTION IS 100% LEGAL. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO CO-OPERATE IN THIS TRANSACTION, PLEASE CONTACT OUR INTERMEDIARY REPRESENTATIVES TO FURTHER DISCUSS THE MATTER.

I PRAY THAT YOU UNDERSTAND OUR PLIGHT. MY FAMILY AND OUR COLLEAGUES WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL. PLEASE REPLY IN STRICT CONFIDENCE TO THE CONTACT NUMBERS BELOW.

SINCERELY WITH WARM REGARDS,

GEORGE WALKER BUSH

Hi OM Folks, Can we think of anyone who could document the Lynn and Joann travesty? rk
>> Hi Richard,
>> I've had a chance to think this over and talk w/Carmen.  Linn has a very compelling story and one I hope will be told in relation to their foreclosure and how it began a terrible chain of events.  Right now I really need to stay close to home, take care of the farm and animals and not commit to another film project.  Most folks don't realize how much work goes into even a short 20 min. film.  It's a big commitment.  Filmmakers used to be able to get grants for projects so that they could make their film and keep their life together too.   Those were the good old days.  I have to be careful and not over-extend myself because stress really affects my health and causes flair-ups of Crohn's disease which I've had for 45 years.
>> 
>> Anyhow, I just wanted you to know that I haven't called Linn.  If I think of someone else who might want to cover Linn's story I'll let you know.

Said she couldn't come back for a week. Lynn told them how Joanna has dementia and that she doesn't even know how to start the heater. The powers prevailed. Lynn gets a phone call several days later and is told that Joanne has been killed by a pickup out on Highway I.

All this while virtually NO bankers have been prosecuted and we know people have died...

Message-ID: <C8292495-9247-4B62-820E-3866F7CB8BBB@att.net>

Developments in the Detroit bankruptcy have exposed a double standard in federal bankruptcy law, an injustice in urgent need of congressional reform.

That is where the legal double standard comes in. In Detroit?s bust, even pensioners have to negotiate new terms; in the housing bust, big banks did not have to negotiate, leaving many homeowners in the dust.

Please call Senator Noreen Evans tell her vote NO on SB 1077.
Agnes

To all California Residents, please call Sacramento legislators and demand
to stop this bill SB 1077.
This is U.N. agenda 21.......



Thought you all might like to see this
This bulletin is about *SB 1077 Mileage Based Fee Pilot Program*. When I
first saw this bill, I said to myself it will never fly; WRONG. It is now
in the CA Senate Transportation Committee, has been amended and is coming
up for a vote on Tuesday, April 29. Below is the Legislative Council Digest
with the amended verbiage. Please read it carefully.
 *legislative counsel???s digest*
 SB 1077, as amended, DeSaulnier-D. Vehicles: vehicle-miles-traveled

Existing law establishes the Department of Motor Vehicles and provides for
its general powers and duties, including, among other things, the

Department of the California Highway Patrol, the California Transportation
Commission, the Department of Motor Vehicles, the Department of
Transportation, the High-Speed Rail Authority, and the Board of Pilot

This bill would require the Department of Motor Vehicles *agency *to

pilot program designed to assess specified issues related to implementing a
vehicle-miles-traveled *mileage-based *fee *(MBF) *in California *to

recommendations regarding public and private agency access to MBF data that
ensures privacy rights as protected by the California Constitution. *The

January
1, 2018.

There has been a lot rhetoric on this bill about high mileage cars,
improved mileage vehicles, hybrids, "alternative-fueled" vehicles and
electric's, *however* I see this as a means to increase tax revenues and
implement the ARB's "Sustained Communities". Please keep in mind this is
CA's
???part of ???
 "U.N. Agenda 21" and the State debt is now $419,465,023,500. Part of the
Agenda 21 thrust is to end urban sprawl, move people into high rise condo's
in the city and *use public transportation.*
 I urge all to send letters of opposition to the Senate Transportation
Committee before April 29. Simply say you oppose this bill because the
citizens of CA do not need more taxes, we are now taxed and fee'd too much
now. Clubs should use their letterheads and include the number of members.

Whenever I see: ?because the citizens of CA do not need more taxes, we are now taxed and fee?d too much now.? Or, something referring to a U.N. Agenda, I suspect a right wing scam. (Especially when it looks like ?Bryan Cooper? is running a pyramid buying club.) What?s wrong with milage based fees? You drive more, you pay more. It seems fairer than fees paid at the pump.

Get Rich, Live Longer: The Ultimate Consequence of Income 
Inequality


DEREK THOMPSONAPR 18 2014, 12:33 PM ETMorein


Reuters
Brookings economist Barry Bosworth crunches the data on income and lifespans for the Wall Street Journal, and the numbers tell three clear stories. 

1. Rich people live longer.

2. Richer people's lifespans are growing at a faster rate.

3. The problem is worse for women than for men.

First, let's look at the guys. A rich man (top decile) born in 1940 can expect to live 10 years longer after he turns 55 than a poor man (bottom decile). That longevity gap grew by four years in one generation.

Hey there,

NBA Owner Donald Sterling has said he doesn't want his girlfriend to  
bring Black people to Los Angeles Clippers games.

I just joined ColorOfChange to demand corporations drop sponsorships  
of the Clippers until Donald Sterling is no longer associated with  
team. Check out the petition here:

 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) may be on the verge of a huge
mistake that would hand over the internet to the 1%.

On May 15, the FCC will consider a rule that would create a new
"pay-to-play" fast lane which would allow big corporations to pay an extra
fee to get their content prioritized to users. Independent, grassroots
sites like Daily Kos would be left to suffer in an internet slow lane.

Please, sign the petition to save net neutrality by urging the FCC to
scrap their horrible "pay-to-play" proposal.

https://dailykos.com/campaigns/785

Let's be clear-this isn't about better service of streaming video or
faster broadband speeds. This is about broadband providers being able to
create another way to make additional profit from charging more for access
to the internet without any new investment to expand service or speed.

This would lead to more corporate sponsorship and control over the
internet, which would lead to grassroots, independent sites-like Daily
Kos-being relegated to the slow lane.

This goes against everything that is great about the internet. Please sign
the petition to save net neutrality by urging the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) to scrap this horrible proposal.

Keep fighting,
Rachel Colyer, Daily Kos

Subject: [Occupymendocino] Borowitz: MILLIONAIRES UNITE TO DEFEAT MINIMUM
	WAGE
Message-ID: <276F2478-4985-4141-971D-9ED73851ADFD@att.net>

WASHINGTON - A broad-based coalition of millionaires converged on Washington today to defeat a bill that would have increased the minimum wage for American workers to $10.10 an hour.

Leaving behind their mansions and yachts, the millionaires were motivated by what they saw as an existential threat to the country, Mitch McConnell, a spokesman for the millionaires, said.

?This was an extremely diverse coalition,? McConnell said, noting that everyone from the rich to the very rich to the super-rich united to vote down the bill.

McConnell hoped that today?s vote would burnish the millionaires? reputation as ?people who get things done.?

?Folks who have tried to pin a ?do nothing? label on us are dead wrong,? he said. ?When it comes to stopping workers from being paid more, we spring into action.?

Color me surprised.

A new report by a national regulator confirms that the country?s biggest banks committed widespread errors in dealing with homeowners who faced foreclosures during height of the mortgage crisis.
