Corporations and Wall Street in pursuit of short-term profits have given the economy away.
Paul Craig Roberts
The American people and the entire world need to understand that the threat to life on earth resides in Washington and that until Washington is fundamentally and totally changed, this threat will remain as the worse threat to life on earth.
It is impossible to work out a reduction in nuclear threat as long as one side is going all out to demonize the other.
The propagandistic American 'media' and the crazed neoconservatives have set humanity on the path to destruction.
I have come to the conclusion that capitalism is successful primarily because it can impose the majority of the costs associated with its economic activities on outside parties and on the environment.
In the U.S., society and the environment have to pick up the tab produced by capitalist activity.
The unambigious fact is that U.S. capitalism is a mechanism for looting the many for the benefit of the few.
If it turns out that global warming and ocean acidification are consequences of capitalism's carbon-based energy system, the entire world could end up dead from the external costs of capitalism.
If you want to learn real economics instead of neoliberal junk economics, read Michael Hudson's books.
Because of the failure of the federal government to enforce federal law, we now have 'banks too big to fail,' unregulated Internet monopoly, and the evisceration of a dispersed and independent media.
If the Obama regime gave a hoot about 'humanitarian crisis,' the Obama regime would not have orchestrated humanitarian crisis in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen.
The offshoring of American jobs by global corporations and the deregulation of the U.S. financial system have resulted in American economic failure.
War is the only destination to which Washington can lead.
Peace is costly to the profits of the military/security complex. Washington's gigantic military and security interests are far more powerful than the peace lobby.
When America's Newspaper of Record is nothing but a propaganda ministry, what is America?
The foreign policy of the United States rests entirely on propagandistic lies.
The neoconservative doctrine declares that it is the principal goal of U.S. foreign policy to prevent the rise of any country that would have sufficient power to serve as a check on American unilateralism. This neoconservative doctrine puts Russia and China in Washington's crosshairs.
God made a mistake when he gave to humans, infected as they are with evil, jurisdiction over Earth. He should have given jurisdiction to animals.
Humans regard animals as worthy of protection only when they are on the verge of extinction.
Elephants are magnificient creatures.
Looting is the only way left for the Western financial system to make money.
Putin responds to threats, to illegal sanctions, and to incessant propaganda with statements that governments need to respect each other's national interests and to work together for common benefit. No politician in the West speaks in this way.
Beginning with the Clinton Administration and rapidly accelerating with the George W. Bush and Obama regimes and Tony Blair in England, the U.S. and U.K. governments have run roughshod over their accountability to law.
Governments unaccountable to law are tyrannies, whatever they might call themselves, no matter how exceptional and indispensable they declare themselves to be.
Everyone who ever trusted Washington has been betrayed. Possibly there is an exception somewhere, but the betrayals are vast and are sufficient in number to define Washington as the least trusted entity on the earth.
Capitalists make money by exploiting labor and by externalizing the costs of the wastes produced by the productive process by imposing the wastes on the environment.
In the United States, journalists receive awards for lying for the government and for the corporations.
It is the nature of government and of technology to establish control.
People everywhere face the threat of control by government and technology.
As truth is Washington's worst enemy, everyone associated with the truth is Washington's enemy.
Clearly what differentiates the U.S. from other countries is the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution defines us as a people. Without the Constitution, we would be a different country. Therefore, to lose the Constitution is to lose the country.
In 21st century America, capitalism has been unfettered from the regulations that democratized it and made it serve society.
There is no reason for a person to have thousands of millions of dollars.
Every public institution in the United States and most private ones are corrupt.
Law is just one public institution, but it is a cornerstone of society. When law goes, everything goes.
Few Americans other than the One Percent have a stake in the American economic and political system.
Globalism is a scheme for impoverishing First World labor and taking power and influence from the hands of the many and putting them in the hands of the few.
The champions of globalism are the champions of America's destruction.
Whether one has a favorable or unfavorable opinion of unions, their demise is also the demise of countervailing power. A system in which there is no countervailing power is a tyranny in which power is unconstrained and unaccountable.
Vice is Washington's signature. A fish rots from the head, and Washington has led our country into vice, greed, selfishness, and the mockery and destruction of human life.
Jobs offshoring began with manufacturing, but the rise of the high-speed Internet made it possible to move offshore tradable professional skills, such as software engineering, information technology, various forms of engineering, architecture, accounting, and even the medical reading of MRIs and CT-Scans.
Many foolish people believe that nuclear war cannot happen, because there can be no winner. However, the American war planners, who elevated U.S. nuclear weapons from a retaliatory role to a pre-emptive first strike function, obviously do not agree that nuclear war cannot be won.
We need a memorial day to commemorate the victims of neoliberal globalization.
The planet is being polluted with many forms of wastes.
I have no sympathy for debunking human achievements that, in the end, gave ordinary people liberty.
Marx and Lenin were ahead of their time. Marx wrote before offshoring of jobs and the financialization of the economy. Lenin presided over a communist revolution that jumped the gun by taking place in a country in which feudal elements still predominated over capitalism.
Clearly the climate is changing, whether caused by CO2 emissions or some other cause.
For a country to be looted, its people's voice must be silenced.
The Golden Rule is to 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you.' Allegedly, America is a Christian country. This means that Christian America is following Jesus' Sermon on the Mount in a masochistic way.
Western capitalism is a looting mechanism. It loots labor. It loots the environment, and with the transpacific and transatlantic 'partnerships,' it will loot the sovereign law of countries.
