Average Americans Getting Poorer Posted: 26 Jul 2014 06:26 PM PDT The Typical Household, Now Worth a Third Less - New York Times By Anna Bernasek | July 26, 2014 Economic inequality in the United States has been receiving a lot of attention. But it's not merely an issue of the rich getting richer. The typical American household has been getting poorer, too. The inflation-adjusted net worth for the typical household was $87,992 in 2003. Ten years later, it was only $56,335, or a 36 percent decline, according to a study financed by the Russell Sage Foundation. Those are the figures for a household at the median point in the wealth distribution — the level at which there are an equal number of households whose worth is higher and lower. read more

The Destruction of Gaza; the slaughter in photos Posted: 26 Jul 2014 06:01 PM PDT These photos are horrific; the destruction of Gaza...this is horrible...why does our country support this? http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2014/07/26...

Oklahoma City Video Trial to Start Monday. Interesting Angle & Suit! Posted: 26 Jul 2014 05:46 PM PDT http://fox13now.com/2014/07/23/oklahoma-city-bombing-video-t... Long ago, when I was a much younger wacko, we spent many meetings looking at the details of OKC & realizing this was another case of our gov't at work covering up the truth. I thought this was another dust covered travesty, like Waco. But, there is a trial starting on Monday that might bring out some truths.

NY Times Calls on Feds to Legalize Marijuana in Sunday Editorial Posted: 26 Jul 2014 04:51 PM PDT By the New York Times Editorial Board: It took 13 years for the United States to come to its senses and end Prohibition, 13 years in which people kept drinking, otherwise law-abiding citizens became criminals and crime syndicates arose and flourished. It has been more than 40 years since Congress passed the current ban on marijuana, inflicting great harm on society just to prohibit a substance far less dangerous than alcohol. The federal government should repeal the ban on marijuana. We reached that conclusion after a great deal of discussion among the members of The Times's Editorial Board, inspired by a rapidly growing movement among the states to reform marijuana laws. read more

The Leader of the Unfree World Posted: 26 Jul 2014 04:23 PM PDT Mass incarceration, perhaps the greatest social crisis in modern American history, is without parallel on a global scale. by Matt Ford | July 23, 2014 The Atlantic On Friday, the U.S. Sentencing Commission voted unanimously to allow nearly 50,000 nonviolent federal drug offenders to seek lower sentences. The commission's decision retroactively applied an earlier change in sentencing guidelines to now cover roughly half of those serving federal drug sentences. Endorsed by both the Department of Justice and prison-reform advocates, the move is a significant step forward—though in a global context, still modest—in reversing decades of mass incarceration. How large is America's prison problem? More than 2.4 million people are behind bars in the United States today, either awaiting trial or serving a sentence. That's more than the combined population of 15 states, all but three U.S. cities, and the U.S. armed forces. They're scattered throughout a constellation of 102 federal prisons, 1,719 state prisons, 2,259 juvenile facilities, 3,283 local jails, and many more military, immigration, territorial, and Indian Country facilities. read more

John Stossel: Why are we giving the police so much power? Posted: 26 Jul 2014 04:19 PM PDT By John Stossel | July 24, 2014 Snip: ...Washington Post reporter Radley Balko points out that they've used SWAT teams to raid such threatening haunts as truck stops with video poker machines, unlicensed barber shops and a frat house where underage drinking was reported. In New York City, these men in black raided standup comedian Joe Lipari's apartment. "I had bad customer service at the Apple Store," Lipari told me in an interview for my upcoming TV special "Policing America." "So I bitched about it on Facebook. I thought I was funny. I quoted 'Fight Club,'" the 1999 movie about bored yuppies who attack parts of consumer culture they hate. "People (on Facebook) were immediately responding that it was obviously from 'Fight Club,'" says Lipari. "It was a good time, until 90 minutes later, a SWAT team knocked on my door. Everyone's got their guns drawn." It took only that long for authorities to deem Lipari a threat and authorize a raid by a dozen armed men. Yet, says Lipari, "if they took 90 seconds to Google me, they would have seen I'm teaching a yoga class in an hour, that I had a comedy show." read more

Man Awarded $1.8M After Incompetent Cops Filled His Truck With Bullet Holes For No Reason Posted: 26 Jul 2014 11:57 AM PDT David Perdue, one of several innocent people shot at during LAPD's vengeful kill mission for Christopher Dorner, has been awarded 1.8 million dollars from the city of Torrance. The money, of course, will be paid by the tax payers and not the out-of-control officers themselves. The officers were cleared of any wrong doing, despite his truck being an entirely different make, model, and color, than the one Dorner was allegedly driving. read more
