Fehlplanung bedroht Elefanten in Indien

Die größte wild lebende Elefantenpopulation Asiens findet sich im Biosphärenschutzgebiet Nilgiri in Indien. Elefanten sind aus vielerlei Hinsicht bedroht, doch in Nilgiri stellt menschliche Ignoranz aktuell die größte Gefahr dar. Vier Kontrollstationen an einer Landstraße sollen mitten in einem schmalen Waldkorridor gebaut werden, den die Elefanten auf ihren jährlichen Wanderungen passieren. Die Kontrollstationen würden den Elefanten den Weg versperren und ihr Überleben bedrohen. (Start: 27.02.2009)

Beware the Madoff Diversion

Richard Grossman, Truthout: "Sure, there are crooks out there. But the overwhelming majority of actions by corporate directors and managers that have created today's messes have been legal. Not only legal, but also widely regarded as necessary and essential to sustain the American Way of Life. To put food on our tables. To heat our homes. To provide jobs. To defend liberty and freedom ... Simply put: Giant business and financial corporations govern. The few who run them make the governing decisions that dictate people's work, living conditions, health and the nature of our communities."

Statt Populismus gegen Ost-Rentner: armutsfeste Mindestsicherung im Alter

18. März 2009

Der stellvertretende Parteivorsitzende Klaus Ernst tritt entschieden der landläufigen Annahme entgegen, dass die Renten im Osten generell höher als im Westen seien. Das Schüren entsprechender Ängste bezeichnet er als "gefährlichen Populismus". Er erklärt:

Der Eindruck, dass die Ost-Rentner im Geld schwimmen und mehr Rente bekommen als die West-Rentner ist falsch und gefährlich. Menschen, die ein Leben lang gearbeitet und Werte geschaffen haben, müssen ordentliche Renten bekommen - im Osten und im Westen. Das ist gerecht und bezahlbar. Im Osten wie im Westen droht ein deutlicher Anstieg der Altersarmut. Massenarbeitslosigkeit und Lohndumping haben in den Rentenbiografien tiefe Spuren hinterlassen. Die Rentenkürzungspolitik der letzten Jahre hat darüber hinaus zu massiven Kaufkraftverlusten geführt. Die Grenze verläuft nicht zwischen Ost-Rentnern und West-Rentnern sondern zwischen guter und schlechter Rentenpolitik. Wir brauchen ein Rettungspaket für die Rente. Die Renten müssen sofort bundesweit um mindestens vier Prozent steigen, damit die Kürzungen der letzten Jahre wenigstens teilweise ausgeglichen werden. Auch in der Rente muss es eine armutsfeste Mindestsicherung geben. Niemand darf im Alter weniger als 800 Euro haben.

Health fear over phone-mast bid

Published Date: 18 March 2009

By Richard Marsden

A MOBILE phone mast planned for woodland on the outskirts of Sheffield has provoked fury - with 160 people signing a petition and protesters voicing fears for health.

Vodafone has applied to Sheffield Council for permission to erect the 12 metre tower, which would be 14.4 metres high with three antennae attached.

If approved, it would be built within trees, behind houses off Bowman Drive, Charnock Hall, above the Moss Valley conservation area. Signatures on the protest petition were collected by Kevin Pryor, of Bowman Drive, Moss Valley Wildlife Group, who said he opposed the idea of such a development on green space and recreational land.

Three letters of objection have also been made, including one from Moss Valley Wildlife Group.

Education About Toxic Vaccines is Sweeping the Nation

Public awareness about problems associated with childhood vaccines is paramount. Concern is spreading like wild-fire.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, within a 12- month period, 85% of pediatricians encountered a parent who refused or delayed one or more vaccines and 54% encountered a parent who refused all vaccines........

Stimulating ourselves to death

Crisis coddling

Fairfield County Weekly
by Phil Maymin

Despite rising unemployment, massive layoffs and a stock market that has lost half of its value from its peak, we are not in a crisis. There is no banking crisis, no financial crisis, no economic crisis. Why not? Because we have no decision to make. A bad situation is only a crisis if making the wrong decision can be fatal, and there is a chance of making the right one. Surely, a recession is a bad situation, but where is the debate about possible decisions? There can be no crisis without even a possibility of massively shrinking government. Who is proposing less government involvement? Who is pointing out that the problems were caused by too much government, too many regulations, too burdensome taxes, too powerful federal agencies? We are seeing more of the same... (for publication 03/19/09)

Stimulating ourselves to death

Reason
by Veronique de Rugy

Barack Obama says his ‘unprecedented’ economic stimulus package will not merely be ‘a short-term program to boost employment.’ No, it ‘will invest in our most important priorities like energy and education; health care; and a new infrastructure that are necessary to keep us strong and competitive in the 21st century.’ The massive cost of the stimulus doubled even before any legislation was written, much less approved. Originally tagged at $400 billion, the proposal quickly jumped to $825 billion, and latest estimates at press time have it costing north of $1 trillion (comprised of 60 percent spending and 40 percent tax cuts). Given the size, will the stimulus work as advertised? Will the goods and services — be they concrete for new highway projects or groceries for hungry families — pump up flagging demand and boost stalled economic activity? If so, it will be the first time in modern recorded history... (for publication 04/09)

In defense of distrust in government

Cato Institute
by Gene Healy

03/17/09

President Barack Obama declared in his inaugural address that ‘our patchwork heritage is a strength’ because people of all backgrounds and creeds had come together to make America great. But there was one group, Obama suggested, that wasn’t quite welcome in the American family: the ‘cynics,’ those miserable killjoys who dare to ‘question the scale of [the federal government’s] ambitions.’ There, Obama echoed his 2008 opponent, John McCain, who has repeatedly warned that there’s a specter haunting our country, in the form of a ‘pervasive public cynicism’ toward government. ‘Cynicism’ is a scare word, meant to discredit those who cast a skeptical eye on politicians’ grand designs. But Obama and McCain are right that distrust of government is on the rise...

Let freedom do it

Freedom Politics
by Steven Greenhut

03/16/09

Those of us who advocate freedom and capitalism run up against a difficult problem. Even though these ideas, hampered as they have always been by government intervention, have led to all the good things people say they want (wealth, justice, progress, personal liberty, etc.), they haven’t got a prayer against the grandiose promises of those who prefer the alternate route of command and control. Government promises to protect us, feed us, comfort us, instruct us and make life fair. Freedom promises nothing more than the ability to pursue one’s dreams as one chooses. There’s no promise of utopia in such a system, but the results of leaving people free to their own devices tend to be pretty good, on balance. The utopian systems are the ones where you find the concentration camps and dungeons, despite the flowery rhetoric...

The highest levels of the Obama administration are infested with members of a shadowy, elitist cabal intent on installing a one-world government that subverts the will of the American people.

Peaceful dissent and government witch hunts

Campaign For Liberty
by Anthony Gregory

[T]he flavor of government has changed from the Republican leviathan of George W. Bush to the Democratic leviathan of Barack Hussein Obama. A different group is vulnerable to being marginalized — in many ways a revitalization of the Clinton era atmosphere, although now with the post-9/11 concern about peace activists and all the surveillance powers inaugurated by Bush still in place. But the general substance behind government fear-mongering and witch-hunts, and the attempts to chill dissent and silence peaceful political critics, have continued and have a long history. For the last century especially, we have seen the government lump together violent and in many cases unsavory agitators on both the left and right with Americans who simply question unlimited government, nationalist police powers and disastrous foreign wars. While there are indeed some violent and crazed elements on the fringes of the right and left — while there are likewise some extremist characters and frightening viewpoints in the mainstream of American politics, too — the result of such government persecution of dissenters is always to marginalize everyday citizens with unpopular views, conflate thoughtful and principled criticism of the government with agitation for social unrest and violence, and jeopardize the civil liberties of all Americans...

The nobodies known as former enemy combatants

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Andy Worthington

03/17/09

Changing the names of things was a ploy that was used by the Bush administration in an attempt to justify some of its least palatable activities. In response to the 9/11 attacks, for instance, the nation was not involved in a limited pursuit of a group of criminals responsible for the attacks, but instead embarked on an open-ended ‘war on terror.’ In keeping with this ‘new paradigm,’ prisoners seized in this ‘war’ were referred to as ‘detainees’ and held neither as criminal suspects nor as prisoners of war, protected by the Geneva Conventions, but as illegal ‘enemy combatants,’ without any rights whatsoever...

Hypocritical posturing by Obama over AIG bonuses

by Hans Bader

In response to public outrage, Obama is belatedly criticizing the millions of dollars in bonuses that AIG, which is being bailed by taxpayers at a cost of $170 billion, is paying to its executives. But his criticism is hypocritical and dishonest, both because his administration had long known about the bonuses before they became public, and because the stimulus package he himself signed contains a provision specifically designed to shield those undeserved bonuses...

Crocodile tears over AIG

Outcry Builds in Washington for Recovery of A.I.G. Bonuses

Jackie Calmes And Louise Story, The New York Times: "The American International Group, which has received nearly $200 billion in bailout funds, last week paid bonuses to 418 employees, including $33.6 million to 52 people who have left the failed insurance conglomerate, according to the office of the New York attorney general. The company paid the bonuses, including more than $1 million each to 73 people, to almost all of the employees in the financial products unit responsible for creating the exotic derivatives that caused A.I.G.'s near collapse and started the government rescue to avoid a global financial crisis. The information adds to the firestorm confronting the Obama administration and Congress since the weekend disclosure that A.I.G., almost 80 percent owned by the government, paid out $165 million in bonuses."

http://www.truthout.org/031809K



Venality Bites

Brian E. Gray, Truthout: "The Obama administration's assertion that the federal government had no power to stop A.I.G. from awarding $165 million in bonuses to the derivatives traders in its financial products unit, whose reckless decisions both destroyed the company and exacerbated the collapse of the international banking and insurance industries, rests on a faulty interpretation of the US Constitution. Speaking on ABC's 'This Week,' Lawrence H. Summers, director of the National Economic Council, explained that the United States could not block payment of the bonuses, despite A.I.G.'s receipt of more than $170 billion in federal TARP funds, because 'We are a country of law. There are contracts. The government cannot just abrogate contracts.' Although, it is true that the 'government cannot just abrogate contracts' for no good reason, the law is clear that the United States has the authority to impose significant restrictions on the administration of both public and private contracts to ensure that the expenditure of federal funds is consistent with the public interest. Although, it is too late to void the A.I.G. bonuses, the administration's narrow reading of the law should not deter Congress from amending the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of October 2008, the legislation that created TARP, to authorize the president or the secretary of the treasury to modify executive compensation agreements that are contrary to the purposes of the Act."

Reports of sexual assault in military rise in 2008

03/17/09

Reports of sexual assault among U.S. troops stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan rose 26 percent from the previous year, according to an annual Pentagon report presented to Congress on Tuesday. Among all active duty U.S. military troops, the Pentagon showed an increase of about 8 percent in sexual assault reports from the previous year. Dr. Kaye Whitley, director of the Pentagon’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response office, told reporters she attributes the increases to improved reporting methods and officials’ belief that military personnel are less fearful of backlash from commanders and peers after reporting an assault...

A 30-strong contingent of the Buckler's Village Residents' Association were on Tuesday fighting for a voice in a private meeting about the O2 mast near Wheal Northey.

An official complaint about the mast made to the Ombudsman at Restormel by the Bethel Mast Action Group was being discussed by councillors and officers who will decide if any action should be taken.

Resident association secretary, Frank Boulton, 69, said: "The mast is only 100 metres from our homes and people have been ill since it has been there over the past three years.
