AMERICAN BUBBLE
Some people attempted to warn young ladies that patriarchy would attack personal Choice, and were labeled as radical Feminists for so warning. Another warning is that capitalism isn’t a free market. Patriarchal Establishment continues to use labels appropriate to free markets in our capitalistic system; one such definition being inflation when a better definition is price gouging. On a continuum and particularly with Citizens United-purchased lawmakers, capitalism becomes organized crime. The target is the US public.

An analysis by the Economic Policy Institute, however, makes clear that corporate profits, not increased costs for labor or inputs, drove the majority of inflation from the start of the pandemic through the end of 2021. –end of popularinfo info–
C-Span hosted a discussion about the important issues on minds of voters. A few callers spoke of the level of foreign ownership of property in the USA. This is an interesting outcome, a point can be made, from globalism. The US public isn’t informed about the level or effect of foreign property ownership in the USA, or whether this is oppressive to interests of the US public, AKA We The People.
TPP has been promoted and even fast-tracked by questionable Executive Administrations. Warnings against such trade agreements have exposed those so warning, of being labeled as isolationists. FACTually, the isolation seems to be of We The People, along with members of foreign local communities. Having questioned the extensive cost of foreign occupation by the US military, this is a good time to question the seemingly heavy occupation of foreign commerce within the USA.
If this reciprocal occupation in nations of the world is real, and worldwide local community members are kept in the dark on this topic, it would seem to be an isolationist policy toward local communities, by world oligarchs. This was totally predictable 30 or 40 years ago when the depravity of globalism began, along with the indoctrination into “The Trickle-Down Theory” of Reagan.

Stories of exploitation of people and nature for commercial profit are old as humanity. One has heard commercial-interest types say “we pay the taxes, we should have a say in government”. Humanity and nature that has been exploited for the wealth extracted seemed indoctrinated into submission when human and natural rights demand justice. Euphemism such as human resources (people) and natural resources (environment), soften what seems to be human rights violations and natural rights violations. That this is traditional doesn’t make it better.

According to workers’ accounts, either you fixed the problem on your own (removing teeth, etc.) or you would be out of a job.

C-Span hosted a guest from Real Clear Politics. This guest spoke of a Washington, D. C. bubble. One could also label this “bubble” as patriarchal Establishment. Interestingly the guest mentioned within his discussion that he indeed was a part of the bubble. So what are his credentials for offering views aside from propaganda, one would ask. Yet he is presented as more credible than the average citizen. He may or may not be, and the average citizens may be more in step with reality than said bubble people. —

From Remaloeb with thanks for her reminder—- https://www.facebook.com/rema.loeb/posts/pfbid0ukg82MZ4gjhCV9sfmbeETyebAharg3Q5wGGVWiDiKWq4iURepcC9RFUQb4tDSEZCl –I cannot speak for my people, but as Hunka Lakota I was thankful for everyone there. This is the way we heal a past that we cannot change but must not continue. Land needs to be returned. All stolen belongings need to be returned. Bodies of children who died at boarding schools need to to home. Grandmother Earth needs to be healed as we finally agree to love her, not rape and ransack her. Love is the first law, and the people of Barre, MA were a part of that. May the healing continue and our beautiful young people step away from drugs and alcohol and know that they are the answers to their ancestors’ prayers. Time is not a straight line, and we are rounding the circle to what can be a better way for all.

This reminder of the debt owed to Native Americans stirs feelings about worldwide Indigenous People and an essentially American chauvinistic perspective. Please bear with what may be a tangled explanation—
*The Russian communist Party seriously oppressed Siberian tribes during the USSR era
*One has recently heard described this oppression as Russia versus Siberian Indigenous People
*Russian people en masse are Indigenous
*Americans may identify those who are Indigenous by skin color
*The reason is experience with colonization in the USA that did pertain to skin color
*If Russians are Indigenous, the Russian versus Ukrainian War (without holding Russia as innocent) seems as pertains to the NATO containing many “skin colors” responsible for worldwide colonization and imperialism, may be an example of the response from Indigenous People who have nuclear arms
Without signifying who is right and who is wrong, this should be food for thought. At the core of these ideas is to loosen thought grip about skin color to make room for class considerations. In other words, it’s about the money.

Both branches of the Democrat/Republican duopoly play roles in voter suppression. Ranked-choice voting is one step in the right direction. The Green Party has long promoted ranked-choice voting.

From www.hawkinsmattera.org — Despite efforts by the New York State Democratic Party and their functionaries to silence us, we have broken through to the media with this campaign’s message of Inclusive Democracy, a Green New Deal, and an Economic Bill of Rights. We ask that you share this important news coverage to your community, families and allies:
- Capital Tonight Video: Green Party wages daunting write-in campaign to win back ballot access in New York
- Albany Times Union Op-Ed: Kathy Hochul, Lee Zeldin and nobody else
“Walk into any supermarket and you’ll find a variety of breakfast cereals to match nearly any taste. Shop online and you can select, say, shoes to meet your idiosyncratic preferences.
This is what we’ve come to expect in this age of choice. Almost everywhere there are alternatives to the same-old boring whatever. Nearly everywhere, we have options to satisfy every niche, variety that feels infinite and empowering.
Everywhere, except at the ballot box…” - The New York Times: For First Time Since 1946, New Yorkers Have Just 2 Choices for Governor
“…this year, for the first time in over 75 years, the state ballot appears destined to offer only two choices: Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, and Representative Lee Zeldin, a Republican.
The paucity of options is largely due to former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who championed changes in election law two years ago that made it far more difficult for third parties to get on the ballot. The changes to ballot access law tripled the number of voter signatures required for groups to get on the November ballot and forced political parties to qualify every two years instead of four.” - Focus on Albany Video: A conversation with Howie Hawkins about the campaign for Governor
The Times nails the issue: Cuomo, Hochul, and their Legislature Lackeys have brought democracy in New York to a 75-year low. And the bar was already disgracefully low.
But we can beat this and make our elections more fair and equitable than ever — with your help. We ask that you donate to this campaign today so we can continue fighting through Election Day.
And, speaking of Election Day, we ask that you take a moment to look at how you will need to write in our names for Governor and Lt. Governor, and to share this information with voters:
