America No Longer Has a Functioning Judicial System
The Department of Justice told a federal court this week that the NSA’s spying “cannot be challenged in a court of law”.
(This is especially dramatic given that numerous federal judges and legal scholars – including a former FISA judge – say that the FISA spying “court” is nothing but a kangaroo court.)
Also this week, the Department of Justice told a federal court that the courts cannot...

A Lost Generation: The need for a new system
Our wonderful economic model, you know, the one with endemic unemployment, ever-rising prices, frozen salaries, homelessness, worsening public services and increasing taxation, has failed the next generation (or three) miserably. The ILO’s latest report on employment reads like a social terrorist manual.
And these are the policies blindly followed by the drivers of the western economy, the FUKUS...
Capitalism is way to nowhere - Immortal Technique
Corporations ‘are making too much money off of this stage of evolution, the capitalism, to stop and get off us to the next level’, the American rapper Immortal Technique said in an interview with RT.
The musician says the only thing that people are separated by is language and the inability to understand, that humanity has no other choice but to shift to a new economic idea doing away with devastating...
Cuba, Venezuela, Russia and China now more free than America in notable ways
In reviewing all the breaking news over the last few months and looking for the “big picture” of where America is headed, one pattern has emerged with striking regularity: America has quietly become less free in many ways than nations like Cuba, China and even Venezuela.
This is especially true in California, where “justice” has become a joke, and the power of the state is unleashed in personal...
Czech President Warns The End Of Democracy Is Imminent
Former ECB Chief Economist Says ECB Is In Panic.
If anyone thought the bad blood between Germany and the rest of the insolvent proletariat, aka the part of the Eurozone which is out of money (most of it), and which has been now confirmed will be supporting Obama (one wonders what the quid for that particular quo is, although we are certain we will find out as soon as December), complete collapse of...

While President Aleksandr Lukashenko promises the gradual democratization of Belarus, one of the country’s largest opposition parties has announced it will withdraw all its candidates from the parliamentary poll.

North Korea unleashing its officials
Observers are talking about the changes in the political and economic course of the DPRK. The new leader removed military from the country’s leadership and is trying to unleash the reserved officials. Innovation trickled to the cultural life of the country as well. Frivolous to the North Korean standards concerts are now held in Pyongyang and the newspapers added secular news.
Kim Jong Un, the...
World's oldest democracy turns into dictatorship
It is an open secret that the USA, or the US-led policy, to be more precise, has been earning the reputation of the “world gendarme” even though this term appeared first in the Russian Empire, during the reign of Nicholas I. There is every reason to believe that one of the oldest democracies in the world is playing up to those who play havoc.
Western democracies borrowed a lot from dictatorships....
Americans don't share global domination policies of their leaders
The US corporate superstructure conglomerate – including financial interests, the defense industry, oil companies and the media – brazenly manipulate American society, shares Peter Dale Scott, former diplomat, poet and prominent anti-war advocate.

Libya: So it was all about oil after all!
Last year NATO countries bombed Libya, demanding “democracy” in the country. But now it’s clear it was all about oil and it’s not like the Americans and Brits are going to be democratic about it, and share those spoils equally with France and Italy.
So… oil giants Total from France and ENI from Italy are just going to have to wait in the sidelines while the hungry American and British big...
European Parliament demands perfect democracy from Russia
The European Parliament adopted an ambiguous resolution on the presidential elections in Russia. The resolution serves two masters, as they say. On the one hand, the European Parliament described the electoral process in Russia as “not free and unfair.” On the other hand, the parliament is optimistic about the future and the further dialogue with Russia.
However, Russia could expect nothing...
US electoral registration: Subject to grave errors
With Americans heading to the polls in 2012, determined to take part in homespun democracy, millions of votes may end up rejected or thrown away when election night comes – all because of the specific voting registration system.
The US is always quick to criticize the election process in other countries, as it has been since the presidential election in Russia last week.
But in a few months America...
