Climate Change has not diminished or become less dangerous and deadly for humanity.  So where’s the news coverage about a healthy environment and means by which to secure this fundamental right?

What are we talking about?

https://portside.org/2022-05-25/arsenal-autocracy    –Putting that nightmarish possibility aside, there’s another question that comes to mind (mine, anyway): Does arming Ukraine really make Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, and their cohorts “defenders of democracy”? 

Even as arms industry executives take cover behind Washington’s decisions to weaponize repressive regimes, their companies are working hard to bend the rules in their favor when it comes to who’s eligible to receive their products.  Over the past two decades, military firms have spent $2.5 billion on their lobbying efforts while giving $285 million in campaign contributions to key members of Congress, according to Open Secrets, a group devoted to promoting government transparency.  In an average year, the industry employs around 700 lobbyists, or more than one for every congressional representative.–end of portside info–

Over decades we’re been aware of use of unused military equipment that cycles back to the public.  That the military has an enormous array of equipment for destruction and death isn’t unusual.  Cycling back into the general public of this equipment is questionable.

Over the last several years if not a decade, Lee Camp, comedian, has aired news that you wouldn’t find on corporate-owned-state-influenced MSM, and that ultimately proved to be FACTual.  By the way, Lee Camp is censored by the state-influenced-corporate-owned MSM.  One topic brought to the light of day be Lee Camp is about Pentagon missing money.  The amount is in the 100,000,000,000,000 (that’s with a T).  Eventually a few Representatives of The People caught on, but not enough to cred Lee Camp.

The system of revolving-door economics that in a less hierarchical Establishment enclave could be called money laundering, Representatives of The People again handed large sums of money to the Pentagon.  The happy excuse is the Ukrainian-Russian military dust up.

On March 28, 2022, the Biden-Harris Administration submitted to Congress a proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Budget request of $813.3 billion for national defense, $773.0 billion of which is for the Department of Defense (DoD).Mar 28, 2022

Meanwhile back at home, we have a domestic terrorist issue that seems dependent upon that which some people consider to be military-grade equipment.  Some people don’t even know where others find their so-called assault weapons and body armor. Coincidentally apparently such equipment is floating around the neighborhood.  One could imagine said equipment could be included in the surplus military equipment that revolves back into the public domain from the military.

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/25/schumer-wants-to-pass-gun-reform-bills-after-texas-school-shooting.html      –Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer pledged Wednesday renew his attempts to pass stricter U.S. gun-control laws.

Many people opine as to what is going wrong in US society that gives the US the designation of a high domestic terrorist culture.  Some people see this as being naive if not misleading when one considers the imperialistic tendency promoted by a government purchased into office by big-money interests byway of Citizens United that legalized without legitimizing money and therefore corruption in the electoral process.

At the same time lobbyists are held accountable recently, especially the gun lobby, nothing is said about Citizens United.  What’s up with that?

My main interest is Climate Change and a Universal health care policy in keeping with that of all other industrialized nations.  Voting rights are also crucial.  But hierarchical Establishment has substituted campaign-style concern for the interests of We The People, by consideration of interests of oligarchs.  The domestic terrorism foisted upon the public as being our highest concern is handy as a smokescreen for imperialism and aggression by The Military-Industrial Complex, around the globe, and an excuse for the new mantra that “Americans must sacrifice” in order to make room for the Russian-Ukrainian military dust up.  Really?

The US Constitution doesn’t seem to sanction elections run by political Parties, and to permit control of political debates by political Parties seems equally corrupt.

That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.

WITHDRAWS SUPPORT FROM FINAL PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE–end of lwv info–Murray Bookchin, who founded social ecology, a theory that strongly influenced early Green Socialist thought, strongly advocated the discussion and study group as the first step of any revolutionary movement. A group of individuals meets to expand their knowledge of radical thought and form a radical intellectual community; through the give and take of discussion, can eventually form ideas for next steps in organizing and political activity. According to Bookchin, study groups help create solidarity and a shared language — with a shared coherent vision — for building a mass, organizing, political movement!
Along with Climate Change, many people oppose the imperialism of the USA under control of the Republican/Democratic duopoly.  Use of the wealth of our nation should be to enhance quality of life for We The People rather than for imperialism.  Some people vote accordingly.I———————–That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.
