The Party of Political Capitalism Rules America (Establishment Dems Won’t Help) | March Twisdale
“While promoting themselves as champions of human rights on individual popular issues (such as Gay Marriage), our fundamental and most basic rights to unionize, control our fertility, engage in the political system, blow the whistle, receive a fair trial, and be protected from government intrusion into our lives (NSA and Homeland Security ring any bells?)…are disappearing or already gone…with the full support of both parties. Oh, I meant to say, the one party that runs our country.”

Supreme Court rules churches are eligible for some public funds
The religious right is in full control of our country. Churches will now be eligible to receive tax payer money, yet they still won’t pay any taxes themselves.

DNC to Court: We Are a Private Corporation With No Obligation to Follow Our Rules – IVN.us
“However, DNC lawyers have argued and continue to argue that the Democratic Party doesn’t owe anyone a fair process. It has every right to disregard its own rules or interpret its rules how it wants because it is a private organization, and therefore the plaintiffs have no standing. And that is the conundrum millions of American voters find themselves in today.”
DNC to Court: We Are a Private Corporation With No Obligation to Follow Our Rules – IVN.us
Rather than reflecting on the consternation everyday voters are having over the conduct of the Democratic presidential primary, the Democratic National Committee is doubling down on the assertion that the primary election belongs to the people who control the party — not voters.

Minnesota Senate votes 58-9 to pass Internet privacy protections in response to repeal of FCC privacy rules | Privacy Online News
Good work in Minnesota! Other States should follow suit
“Once this bill passes in the Minnesota House and is signed into law by Governor Mark Dayton, ISPs will be required to obtain “express written approval from the customer” before collecting customer information from their users. Furthermore, it forbids these ISPs and telecoms from refusing to provide service to someone that refuses to approve the collection of their personal data; which, if the online reaction to the repeal of FCC privacy rules is any show of, is a lot of people. “
In stark contrast to Congress’s recent vote against the Internet privacy rights of American constituents, Minnesota’s state Senators have voted to add broadband privacy protections at the state level. The protections were added in an amendment to S.F. No. 1937, the Minnesota economic development bud…
