Sounds
good to me. Bad enough we are not paying enough to educate our young
people, but they should not be saddled with high-interest debts for
years just to get an education.
Elizabeth Warren
has just introduced legislation that will let students borrow money for
college at the same rock-bottom interest rates that the Big Banks get.
Read all about it:
http://lat.ms/YuRIQP Thanks to
US Uncut.
E.
Warren is driving the big banks nuts. Today, she introduced her first
bill which would require the Fed to give the same interest rates to
college students that they give to the banks 0.75 percent.
How
can the federal government justify charging students nearly 7 percent
for loans when banks can get federal funds virtually interest-free (the
Fed discount w
indow rate is currently 0.75%)?
Senator Elizabeth Warren
argued on the floor of the Senate today that it's unjustifiable. Her
first bill would allow students with Stafford loans to pay the same rate
as banks for a year starting July 1st. http://demos.io/18YNMcB
SHARE if you think students help build a strong economy and should get the same loan rate as the big banks.

Detroit
says it will ruin your engine. The EPA says it's safe. Farmers say
it's better than foreign oil. Oil companies say it's more expensive than
gasoline. But as Washington looks to compel refiners to blend more and
more ethanol into gasoline, consumers are still left with the basic and
critical question -- how much ethanol is safe to put in their cars?
( 10 %. More eats plastic parts. Brazil pioneered general ethanol use. )
Dental Care for Kids:
Millions of children are suffering today because they do not receive
dental care. In fact, each year, nearly 17 million low-income children
in the United States do not see a dentist. Children have even died as a
result of infections that could have been prevented if they only had
access to a dentist. Sen. Bernie Sanders will introduce legislation
later this year to address the nation’s dental crisis. His bill would
expand the number of places where people can see dentists.

Canada ranks 2nd for infant mortality rate in developed world:
Canada has the second-highest first-day infant mortality rate in the
industrialized world, according to a new report.
Only the United States has a worse record for first-day death,
with an estimated 11,300 a year — 50% more than all other industrialized
nations combined.

Mass Vaccination: Is Society Trading Relatively Mild Childhood Diseases for Chronic Disorders?
Before the advent of the measles
vaccine, a dozen or so cases of measles would have been considered,
well, too measly to make the headlines. That is because we all got the
measles when we were kids. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) considers anyone born before 1957 to be immune to the
measles.
“Before a vaccine was available,
infection with measles virus was nearly universal during childhood with
more than 90 percent of persons immune by age 15 years,
We baby boomers were apparently the last
generation whose doctors, and therefore parents, accepted the measles
as just one more annoying rite of passage of childhood that also
happened to prime the immune system and provide lifelong immunity.
Medical texts prior to the advent of the
vaccine described measles as a benign, self-limiting childhood
infectious disease that posed little risk to the average well-nourished
child. All of that changed about 40 years ago when health authorities
decreed the need to eradicate the measles, and so began The Great
Measles Massacre.
.....if
you've been waiting for the FDA to step in and re-investigate the
enormous safety issues that have cropped up regarding the MMR and other
vaccines, you'll have to take a number and get in line. All three FDA
employees in charge of food and drug safety are reportedly busy chasing
down a small company found to be printing unproven health claims on
their labels for food products made from cherries.
I propose the following new label for the MMR vaccine vial:
"This
product contains substances known by the United States Government to
cause harm to human beings, including cancer, autoimmune diseases,
nuero-developmental diseases and allergies. Genetically susceptible
individuals injected with this vaccine are known to suffer
enterocolitis, nerve system dysfunction and autism. Antibodies in the
bloodstream provoked by the vaccine do not necessarily confer protection
from natural measles. Paradoxically, in order for this vaccine to work
at all, you must come in contact with natural measles virus from time to
time. The maker of this product cannot be prosecuted for any disability
or death caused by the vaccine to you or your babies, and good luck
trying to sue the government instead."

A new survey shows almost a third of bee colonies in the US died last winter.

Isn't it time we fast-tracked our efforts to save the bees?
After
years of repeated reports of sexual assaults — and years of promises to
prevent them, and then years of studies and commissions to find the
best way of doing so — a Defense Department study released Tuesday
estimates that some 26,000 people in the military were sexually
assaulted in the last fiscal year, up from about 19,000 the year before.
Moreover, it turns out the Air Force lieutenant colonel in charge of
preventing sexual assault has been arrested for … sexual assault.
According to the police report, a drunken Lt. Col. Jeff Krusinski
allegedly approached a woman in a parking lot in Arlington, Va. Sunday
night, and grabbed her breasts and buttocks.
I don’t mean to
be critical. Our military leaders have a lot on their minds. But perhaps
the Air Force or the Defense Department could do a better job remedying
this problem.
Speaking of which, the Air Force has just
removed from duty seventeen launch officers at the Minot nuclear missile
base in North Dakota — one of three bases responsible for controlling,
and, if necessary, launching, strategic nuclear missiles — for violating
weapons safety rules. The base commander characterized their negligence
as “rot.” One officer was found to have intentionally broken a safety
rule that could have compromised the secret codes enabling missiles to
be launched.
I'm sure further steps will be taken to prevent
one of our missiles from accidentally causing a nuclear holocaust. But I
hope the Air Force does a better job guarding our missiles than it’s
done preventing sexual assaults.
"The military cannot eradicate this problem without fundamentally
changing its approach, including its tolerance of participation in these
kinds of websites."

Nesara Australia shared Julia Gillard Must Resign Immediately's photo.
Well,
she has announced it. There will be a referendum on constitutional
recognition of local councils. THIS IS THE MOST SERIOUS THING YOU WILL
VOTE ON IN SEPTE
MBER. The election itself, as important as it is, pales into insignificance compared to this referendum.
http://www.facebook.com/groups/NoCouncilRecognition/
It has been defeated twice before, when Labor have tried to get it
through under Gough Whitlam and Hawke, and WE MUST DEFEAT IT AGAIN. If
it passes, that is the END of Australia as a federation of sovereign
states. It will make the federal government all-powerful, and local
councils will become 10x worse than they currently are, as they will be
used to carry out the federal agenda.
The fines, the red tape,
the green tape, the rates and fees will skyrocket. This is Fabian
Socialism. This is Agenda 21 through the back door.
Please join this facebook group and help organise against this referendum.

Occupy
Canada has been CENSORED! Our official Youtube channel we use to host
important videos as our main social media hub, with over 4 million hits
featuring protest videos, encouraging public speaking, charter rights
and freedoms violations, was removed in its entirety. Our videos have
been featured in multiple media and
university publications and have been linked to far and wide having a
major impact on people waking up to the crimes of our current rogue
government under Stephen Harper and the elite he takes his orders from.
This Censorship is a direct result of the Harper government’s influence
on silencing political dissent in what used to be a great nation.
As a result of silencing critiques of the Canadian government and the
corporations they are in partnership with we are quickly heading into an
Orwellian world. Other important speakers are also being muzzled by
this Harper government. The Harper government is cracking down on
charitable organizations such as the one that David Suzuki started.
Harper now also wants to control the CBC and make it state sponsored
propaganda television. Our Canadian scientists have been silenced.
Artists, librarians and archivists have been muzzled. Parks Canada
employees have been told not to criticize the government. Currently, 9
conservative MP's have been silenced from within their own party, and
even the RCMP was recently reported by the media as being muzzled.
The Harper onslaught is taking its toll which is plain to see for
anyone paying attention which requires going around the corporate
controlled mainstream media and following alternative media such as what
Occupy Canada has been providing. However this is in direct threat of
being silenced. Further to this Derek Soberal, founder of Occupy Canada,
is being bullied with trumped up charges he accrued while organizing
and filming public gatherings.
We don't know whether we can
continue posting everyday as we have since 2011 as we need to take time
for ourselves to re-group. An on-going court case on trumped up charges
have also muzzled from disseminating news and information daily. This is
not the first time he's been targeted for organizing or filming
protests. Canadians are being muzzled, freedom of speech is under
attack, censorship is happening, WAKE UP! speak out while you still can.
If this isn't a sign of oppression and the erosion of freedom in Canada
what is? More info coming soon on how you can help us continue. Your
participation is vital.
