War on Drugs - Racial Discrimination in America's War on Drugs - Racial Discrimination
The drug war has produced profoundly unequal outcomes across racial groups, manifested through racial discrimination by law enforcement and disproportionate drug war misery suffered by communities of color. Although rates of drug use and selling are comparable across racial lines, people of color are far more likely to be stopped, searched, arrested, prosecuted, convicted and incarcerated for drug law violations than are whites. Higher arrest and incarceration rates for African Americans and Latinos are not reflective of increased prevalence of drug use or sales in these communities, but rather of a law enforcement focus on urban areas, on lower-income communities and on communities of color as well as inequitable treatment by the criminal justice system. We believe that the mass criminalization of people of color, particularly young African American men, is as profound a system of racial control as the Jim Crow laws were in this country until the mid-1960s.
The Drug Policy Alliance is committed to exposing disproportionate arrest rates and the systems that perpetuate them. We work to eliminate policies that result in disproportionate incarceration rates by rolling back harsh mandatory minimum sentences that unfairly affect urban populations and by repealing sentencing disparities. Crack cocaine sentencing presents a particularly egregious case. Since the 1980s, federal penalties for crack were 100 times harsher than those for powder cocaine, with African Americans disproportionately sentenced to much lengthier terms. But, in 2010, DPA played a key role in reducing the crack/powder sentencing disparity from 100:1 to 18:1, and we are committed to passing legislation that would eliminate the disparity entirely.

The Alex Jones Show:(VIDEO Commercial Free) Thur. October 10 2013: Everett Stern, Anthony Gucciardi
Banks Strangle the World Date: 10/10/2013 On this Thursday, October 10 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex and Infowars Nightly News host David Knight examine the complete failure of Obamacare. The healthcare.gov web site, which doesn't even work, cost taxpayers $634 million. The White House knew about the problems but still insisted on the Oct. 1 rollout. Regardless, Obamacare is too expensive for Americans with lower incomes and credit scores. Everett Stern, a bank whistleblower, joins the show to discuss the allegations that HSBC, an international bank, financed criminals, drug cartels and terrorists. Back in March, Attorney General Eric Holder declined to prosecute HSBC for money laundering, implying that the bank was "too big to jail." Anthony Gucciardi also joins the show to provide updates on the Fukushima radiation crisis.

No stone is left unturned, no topic left untouched.
Certain pivotal events that changed the course of U.S. and world history are also subjected to investigative scrutiny, from the start of the Federal Reserve, World Wars I and II, Vietnam, the McCarthy hearings, the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, to the 1979 Iran hostage crisis, the BCCI scandal, the attacks of 9/11 and events taking place through the various presidential administrations of William Clinton, George H.W.

United States was a one-party state, with a Business Party that had two

still one party, but with only one faction. "It's not Democrats, it's
moderate Republicans," he said. "Today's Democrats have shifted to the
right." Find out what else Chomsky had to say about the state of

Book Of Secrets - Freemasons [History Channel Documentary]
A Documentary about Freemasons
Free masonry can be traced back 3000 years to the legendary white knights of the crusades, the Knights Templar (25.10) Firstly, Free Masons have no roots back to King Solomon or anywhere else, it's modern, 1600's at earliest, not 3000 years old. Secondly, Crusades, quick history lesson, for those who never read a book, the first crusade was in 1095 AD and the Knights Templar appeared around about 30 years later to protect pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem. Free Masonry was behind secularizing the West and the Humanitarian Revolution.
Leak At Fukushima Plant Contaminates Six Workers
Six workers at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant were exposed to a leak of highly radioactive water on Wednesday (October 9, the latest in a string of mishaps the country's nuclear watchdog has attributed to carelessness, saying they could have been avoided.
Tokyo Electric Power Co, also known as Tepco, has been battling to contain radioactive water at the plant, which suffered triple meltdowns and hydrogen explosions following a devastating earthquake in March 2011.
In the latest incident, the company said a worker mistakenly detached a pipe connected to a treatment system to remove salt from the hundreds of tonnes of water Tepco pumps over the melted fuel in wrecked reactors at Fukushima to keep them cool.
"Some of our workers mistakenly removed the lock on a pressure hose in the wrong location, which caused a leak from the hose," said Tepco spokesman Masayuki Ono.
Tepco said seven tonnes of water were spilled in Wednesday's incident at the treatment facility but were contained within the site, adding that the leaked water had an all-beta radiation level of 34 million becquerels per liter.
"At the moment we only have provisional figures, but we think the amount of water that leaked was about 7 tonnes. We have confirmed the leak has stopped within the building and has not seeped out into the wider area," Ono said.
The accidents at the Fukushima Daiichi plant, 220 km (130 miles) north of Tokyo, are adding to a crisis no one seems to know how to contain, and stirring doubt over Tepco's abilities to carry out a complex cleanup widely expected to take decades.
"Six people have had their bodies irradiated and it is true that big mistakes like this continue to occur again and again. It is therefore essential that we do something to stop this chain of events," Ono said.
Last week, Tepco said 430 liters (113 gallons) of contaminated water had spilled out of a storage tank at Fukushima and probably flowed to the ocean.

Alan Grayson rant compares Congress to Dog Poop
House Republicans silence Rep. Alan Grayson after he cites poll comparing them to 'dog poop'
Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) found himself on Tuesday being added to the list of things that had been shut down because of Republicans in Congress. During a speech on the House floor to call for a vote on a resolution that said Congress' "dignity" had been impugned by the government shutdown, Grayson frustrated Speaker pro tempore Steve Womack (R-AR) by obstructing all other business and asserting privilege under Rule IX. Grayson observed that media outlets all over the world and polling data within in the United States showed that "the dignity of the House has been called into question." The Florida Democrat pointed to a Public Policy Polling survey that found that Congress had an 8 percent approval rating. And to infuriate Republicans further, he read out of the each items that the American people found more likable than Congress. "What do you have a higher opinion of, Congress or witches? Congress, 32 percent; witches, 46 percent," he said. "What do you have a higher opinion of, Congress or hemorrhoids? Congress, 31 percent; hemorrhoids, 53 percent. What do you have a higher opinion of, Congress or dog poop? Congress 40 percent; dog poop 47 percent." At that point, Womack cautioned Grayson to confine his remarks to an explanation of why his resolution was privileged under Rule IX. But the congressman continued citing the poll, comparing Congress to toenail fungus, cockroaches and zombies. "Surely our dignity has been diminished and is actively being called into question," Grayson said. "If we are to be called obstructionists, practicers of partisan petulance, if we are to be called an establishment that is rotten to the core, if we are leaving Americans wondering why there is so much poison in the system then surely our dignity has been diminished. If we're being accused of willingly provoking crises that suspend public services and decrease economic growth then surely our dignity as a body has been diminished."
Costa Gavras interview on Democracy Now : Taking on Capitalism, U.S. Torture & Dictatorships, Decades of Political Filmmaking
Costa-Gavras joins us for the hour to discuss a nearly 50-year career that has earned him the reputation as one of the world’s greatest living political filmmakers. Born in Greece in 1933, the 80-year-old has won two Academy Awards for his films “Z” and “Missing.” Other acclaimed films include, “State of Siege,” “Amen,” “Music Box,” “The Confession,” “Hanna K.” and “Betrayed.” For nearly five decades, Costa-Gavras has tackled some of the key political issues of the day. “Z” was a drama loosely based on the 1963 assassination of a Greek left-wing activist. “Missing,” his 1982 film starring Jack Lemmon and Sissy Spacek, told the story of American journalist Charles Horman, who was abducted and killed after General Augusto Pinochet came to power in Chile in a U.S.-backed coup. In his film “State of Siege,” Costa-Gavras looked at the controversial role of the U.S. Agency for International Development in Latin America. The film was based on the kidnapping and murder of a U.S. official named Dan Mitrione who taught torture to Uruguayan officers. His latest film, “Capital,” tells the story of a CEO of a large bank who lays off many of the employees and brokers a corrupt deal with the head of an American hedge fund.
Secret Tibetan Book of the Dead | History Channel Documentary
Secret Tibetan Book of the Dead | History Channel Documentary
Bardo Thodol: The Liberation Through Hearing During the Intermediate State, it is often referred to in the West by the more casual title, Tibetan Book of the Dead, a name which draws a parallel with the ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, another funerary text.
The Tibetan text describes, and is intended to guide one through, the experiences that the consciousness has after death, during the interval between death and the next rebirth. This interval is known in Tibetan as the bardo. The text also includes chapters on the signs of death, and rituals to undertake when death is closing in, or has taken place. It is the most internationally famous and widespread work of Tibetan Nyingma literature.
According to Tibetan tradition, the Liberation Through Hearing During the Intermediate State was composed in the 8th century by Padmasambhava, written down by his primary student, Yeshe Tsogyal, buried in the Gampo hills in central Tibet and subsequently discovered by a Tibetan terton, Karma Lingpa, in the 14th century.[7][8] There were variants of the book among different sects.[9] The Tibetan Book of the Dead was first published in 1927 by Oxford University Press. Dr. Walter Y. Evans-Wentz chose this title because of the parallels he found with the Egyptian Book of the Dead.[10]
The Liberation Through Hearing During the Intermediate State is recited by Tibetan Buddhist lamas over a dying or recently deceased person, or sometimes over an effigy of the deceased. The name means literally "liberation through hearing in the intermediate state".

Donald Trump: GOP strategy should be to 'stick together'
How Republicans should tackle the stalemate in Congress
How Smugglers, Traffickers, and Copycats are Hijacking the Global Economy (2005)
The literature on the black market has avoided a common usage and has instead offered a plethora of appellations including: subterranean; hidden; grey; shadow; informal; clandestine; illegal; unobserved; unreported; unrecorded; second; parallel and black.[2] This profusion of vague labels attests to the confusion of a literature attempting to explore a largely uncharted area of economic activity.
There is no single underground economy; there are many. These underground economies are omnipresent, existing in market oriented as well as in centrally planned nations, be they developed or developing. Those engaged in underground activities circumvent, escape or are excluded from the institutional system of rules, rights, regulations and enforcement penalties that govern formal agents engaged in production and exchange. Different types of underground activities are distinguished according to the particular institutional rules that they violate. Five specific underground economies can be identified:
criminal drugs
the illegal economy
the unreported economy
the unrecorded economy
the informal economy
The "illegal economy" consists of the income produced by those economic activities pursued in violation of legal statutes defining the scope of legitimate forms of commerce. Illegal economy participants engage in the production and distribution of prohibited goods and services, such as drug trafficking, arms trafficking, and prostitution.
The "unreported economy" consists of those economic activities that circumvent or evade the institutionally established fiscal rules as codified in the tax code. A summary measure of the unreported economy is the amount of income that should be reported to the tax authority but is not so reported. A complementary measure of the unreported economy is the "tax gap", namely the difference between the amount of tax revenues due the fiscal authority and the amount of tax revenue actually collected. In the U.S. unreported income is estimated to be $2 trillion resulting in a "tax gap" of $450--$500billion.[3][4]
The "unrecorded economy" consists of those economic activities that circumvent the institutional rules that define the reporting requirements of government statistical agencies. A summary measure of the unrecorded economy is the amount of unrecorded income, namely the amount of income that should (under existing rules and conventions) be recorded in national accounting systems (e.g. National Income and Product Accounts) but is not. Unrecorded income is a particular problem in transition countries that switched from a socialist accounting system to UN standard national accounting. New methods have been proposed for estimating the size of the unrecorded (non-observed) economy.[5] But there is still little consensus concerning the size of the unreported economies of transition countries.[6]
The "informal economy" comprises those economic activities that circumvent the costs and are excluded from the benefits and rights incorporated in the laws and administrative rules covering property relationships, commercial licensing, labor contracts, torts, financial credit and social security systems. A summary measure of the informal economy is the income generated by economic agents that operate informally.[7][8] The informal sector is defined as the part of an economy that is not taxed, monitored by any form of government, or included in any gross national product (GNP), unlike the formal economy. In developed countries the informal sector is characterized by unreported employment. This is hidden from the state for tax, social security or labour law purposes but is legal in all other aspects. On the other hand, the term black market can be used in reference to a specific part of the economy in which contraband is traded.

ObamaCare Leads to America's Death!
ObamaCare, the health care law enacted by the Obama administration which forces all American citizens to purchase health insurance on penalty of fines or even prison, was deemed by the Supreme court to be justifiable based on the US tax code. In other words, it's a tax - and a big one!Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli - "This is a dark day for the American people, the Constitution and the rule of law," he said of the Supreme Court decision to let Obamacare stand as the law of the land. "This is a dark day for American liberty."
Focus on the Debt Ceiling Countdown, Not The Shutdown -- Peter Hug -- October 8, 2013
Kitco News speaks with Peter Hug to get his take on the instability going on in the U.S. It is day 8 of the U.S. government shutdown with no settlement between Republicans and Democrats in sight. "The government shutdown is psychologically in the market but it's so minor relative the bigger picture of the debt ceiling negotiations that are coming to a deadline within the next 10 days," Hug says. "If they blow this one, I can't even guess at what this does to the price of the metals. Obviously it's going to be higher, but I can't even quantify what's going to happen." Despite the approaching debt-ceiling limit, Hug says the fundamentals to this market look bearish. With regards to this month's FOMC meeting, Hug says Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has the perfect out and the shutdown is giving the Fed ammunition to continue its bond-buying program. "My assumption is that this debt ceiling will get extended and it will not have an impact on the credit rating of the United States. If they blow it, I can't quantify what the results are going to be, but it's going to be really negative," Hug adds. Watch now to hear how Hug expects gold & silver to react to the debt ceiling debate results. Kitco News, October 8, 2013.
