War and the return of populism

The American elites are on trial in the court of public opinion and the verdict is just about to come in. The world economic system based on central banking and floating fiat currencies is crumbling beneath their feet, and the return of populism on both sides of the political spectrum has them in fear of losing their grip on power for the first time since the 1930s. While American troops are occupying Afghanistan, the folks back home are occupying Wall Street...

War breeds war. Peace breeds prosperity

Wrights 2012
by R. Lee Wrights

10/15/11

War breeds war. That is all it can do. War does nothing but devour valuable resources and destroy precious lives for the sole purpose of perpetuating itself. As Randolph Bourne wrote, 'War is the health of the State.' War is a mechanism used by the ruling elites of the State to coerce and control the people, so it becomes essential that whenever one war is complete, another is instigated elsewhere so that the mechanism keeps running...

The corporation is an association of people organized in a manner determined by contracts and countless laws. Most of these laws have little to do protecting people from aggression or wrongdoing and a lot to do with privileging and encouraging the corporate form itself. The occupiers have hit the nail on the head when it comes to removing the corporate privilege of personhood, but it is hardly the tip of the iceberg...

How to End Corporate Personhood

Thom Hartmann, Berrett-Koehler Publishers: 'Virtually every legislative session since the 1800s has seen new attempts to regulate or control corporate behavior, starting with Thomas Jefferson s unsuccessful insistence that the Bill of Rights protect humans from 'commercial monopolies.' Ultimately, most have either failed or been co-opted because they didn t address the underlying structural issue of corporate personhood. To solve this problem, then, new laws controlling corporations aren t the ultimate answer. Instead what is needed is a foundational change in the definition of the relationship between living human beings and the nonliving legal fictions we call corporations.'
