Bundesverfassungsgericht setzt Verschärfung des Versammlungsrechts in Bayern außer Kraft

Karlsruhe stoppt "anlasslose Datenbevorratung"

Das Bundesverfassungsgericht hat zentrale Regelungen des seit Oktober 2008 geltenden bayerischen Versammlungsgesetzes vorläufig außer Kraft gesetzt. Ein Eilantrag mehrerer Parteien, Gewerkschaften und nichtstaatlicher Organisationen hatte damit teilweise Erfolg, wie es in dem am Freitag (27. Februar) veröffentlichten Beschluss heißt. So wurden die Befugnisse für polizeiliche Beobachtungs- und Dokumentationsmaßnahmen bei Versammlungen bis zur Entscheidung über die anhängige Verfassungsbeschwerde deutlich eingeschränkt. Die Richter rügten, dass die im Gesetz vorgesehene "anlasslose Datenbevorratung" zu durchgreifenden Nachteilen für Demonstrationsteilnehmer führe.

Global Bank, Global Currency Within 15 Years

Globalists exploit financial crisis to pose as saviors and achieve new world economic order

Tetra saving costing lives

Finnish 2007 comparative tests show Tetra mobile signal is the most troublesome source of digital mobile interference to medical equipment.

Equivalent tests by the UK's MHRA were 'interpreted' to reach a conclusion that Tetra was 'no worse than' mobile phones.

Now that Airwave has been adopted by UK ambulance services expect the opposite to Airwave promoters earlier inflated 'it will save lives' claims.

Any such 'mishap' will of course be assisted to pass unnoticed and if ever identified the authorities accustomed response will be to blame the design of adversely affected electronic equipment.

Why Obama’s economic plan will fail

TCS Daily
by John L. Chapman

02/25/09

The recent passage of the $787 billion malapropism known as the ‘American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009′ on Friday the 13th was full of irony. Beyond the portentous date of passage, or its questionable moniker, was the ugly process leading to the confirming Senate vote. While promising ‘unprecedented responsibility, transparency, and accountability’ in securing passage of the largest ad hoc spending bill in U.S. history, the Obama team instead permitted their Congressional allies to rush through a 1,000-page monstrosity with no effective deliberation, no promised prior posting, and no lawmaker coming close to fully reading the pork-laden bill. But the reaction of President Obama was, itself, the ultimate incongruity. For even as Mr. Obama hailed its passage as a ‘major milestone on the road to recovery’ which would lead to ‘3.5 million new or saved jobs in two years,’ the bill in fact guarantees the failure of his economic program, a prolonged downturn, and a golden opportunity for the revival of his political opponents...

What’s government giving up for Lent?

Nolan Chart
by Benjamin W. Mankowski, Sr.

02/25/09

Today is Ash Wednesday, and for millions of Catholics worldwide, that means the beginning of Lent. That also means a lot of complaining about not being allowed to eat meat today and for the next six Fridays, and yes, guilty as charged, I did a lot of that in my younger years. There is a certain irony to that, as Lenten discipline used to have more strict guidelines centuries or even decades ago, and there was a lot less complaining. … Government could stand to learn a little bit about sacrifice, especially when politicians of both major parties lecture us about it on a regular basis. Ever since the New Deal and even before, government programs have been introduced to get us out of economic downturns. The problem is, once those programs are in place, they usually prove to be permanent, though any perceived economic benefits are not. We are told we need this program or that agency in place to keep the economy strong...

New US jobless claims jump unexpectedly to 667,000

New jobless claims rose more than expected last week and the number of laid-off Americans continuing to receive unemployment benefits topped 5.1 million, fresh evidence the recession is increasingly forcing employers to shed jobs. The Labor Department said Thursday that first-time requests for unemployment benefits jumped to 667,000 from the previous week’s figure of 631,000. Analysts had expected a slight drop in claims. The 667,000 new claims are the most since October 1982, though the labor force has grown by about half since then...

Schülerdaten: Kindern den Stempel aufdrücken

Aus dem Text: „…Es ist schon erstaunlich, wie wenig Eindruck die Datenskandale der letzten Zeit hinterlassen. Fröhlich beschließt man in Berlin indessen die Schullaufbahn von Heranwachsenden zu dokumentieren. Es hagelt bittere Proteste von empörten Eltern und Boykottaufrufe. Man kann darauf warten, wer es als erstes schafft, die geplante Anonymisierung zu knacken. Schlimm genug wäre es, wenn dies einem geschickten Schüler gelänge, der die Daten ins Internet stellt, um damit ein paar Mitschüler zu ärgern. Die Schülerdaten drücken den Kindern dann bereits einen Stempel auf. Denn das Internet vergisst bekanntlich nie. Ein möglicher späterer Personalchef könnte sich dann über bestimmte „Schulversager“ briefen.“

No one in the mainstream can explain exactly how all of this spending will help the economy in the long-run. And yet, the people continue to put their faith into these charlatans. Why? … Frankly at the rate this administration is moving, I’ll be surprised if the economy does not collapse by the 2012 election. At least during the Great Depression, there still a hint of a gold standard which did restrain the actions of the Fed. Now pretty much the entire world is on a fiat money standard which means the Fed can print money as fast as the presses will roll...

Spending our way to ruin

At a time when we should pay down the national debt, reduce or eliminate spending, and lure businesses back to the states through lower taxes, the Obama administration is acting like a teenager who stole her parent’s credit card. Rather than being offended by a New York Post cartoon comparing the author of the stimulus bill to an out of control chimp, we aught [sic] to be offended by the inability of our so-called leaders to act moderately and rationally when it comes to economic recovery. Their rhetoric of fear only serves to make investors increasingly nervous, and when promises of the quick-fix fail to deliver, fear turns to panic...

Obama puts the economic cart before the horse

LewRockwell.Com
by Peter Schiff

02/28/09

In his first televised speech before Congress, President Obama asserted that prosperity will return once the government restores the flow of credit in the economy. It may come as a surprise to him, but an economy cannot run on consumer loans. Furthermore, credit stopped flowing in the U.S. for a very good reason: there was no more savings left to loan. Government efforts to simply make credit available, without rebuilding productive capacity or increasing savings, are doomed to destroy what’s left of our economy. The central tenets of Obamanomics appear to be that access to credit will enable people to borrow money to buy stuff, the spending will spur production and employment, and thus the economy will grow. It’s a neat and simple picture, but it has nothing whatsoever to do with how an economy works. The President does not understand that consumption is made possible by production and that credit is made possible by savings...

Did the US learn anything in Iraq?

CounterPunch
by Patrick Cockburn

02/26/09

President Obama is likely to announce in the coming days that he will withdraw all US combat troops from Iraq by August 2010. Many of these soldiers will end up in Afghanistan where the Taliban is getting stronger and the US-backed government weaker by the day. How much has the US learnt from its debacle in Iraq? One lesson not learnt in Washington is that it is a bad idea to become involved in a war in any so-called ‘failed state.’ This patronizing term suggests that if a state has failed, foreign intervention is justified and will face limited resistance. But the greatest US foreign policy disasters over the last generation have all been in places where organised government had largely collapsed...

Keine Leistungskürzung bei Verweigerung von Jobs zum Dumpinglohn

Weigert sich ein Langzeitarbeitsloser, einen Job zum Dumpinglohn anzutreten, darf das Arbeitslosengeld II nicht gekürzt werden. Das hat das Sozialgericht Dortmund jetzt im Fall einer Bochumer Hartz IV-Empfängerin entschieden, die bei einem Textildiscounter für einen Stundenlohn von 4,50 Euro beschäftigt werden sollte…“ Meldung vom 25.02.2009 auf der Mindestlohn-Kampagnenseite http://www.mindestlohn.de/meldung/urteil-sozialgericht-dortmund/

Das Urteil zu Az.: S 31 AS 317/07 bei der Sozialgerichtsbarkeit http://www.sozialgerichtsbarkeit.de/sgb/esgb/show.php?modul=esgb&id=86609


Urteil gegen die Logik von Hartz IV

„"Dieses Urteil könnte eine Signalwirkung gegen die Logik von Hartz IV haben", erklärt Kornelia Möller zur Entscheidung des Sozialgerichts Bochum. Das Gericht hatte die Kürzung des Arbeitslosengeldes II einer Frau durch die Arge Bochum für rechtswidrig erklärt. Die Klägerin hatte sich geweigert, zur Hälfte des untersten Tariflohns, also für einen Dumpinglohn zu arbeiten. Möller weiter: "Solche Stundenlöhne sind sittenwidrig. Arbeitslosen derartige Stellen mit Hilfe von Sanktionen aufzuzwingen, heißt, Lohndumping zu unterstützen und das Lohngefüge weiter nach unten zu schrauben…“ Kommentar vom 24.02.09 bei scharf links http://scharf-links.de/57.0.html?&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=4111&tx_ttnews[backPid]=56&cHash=27a3620d57


Erwerbstätige Alleinerziehende in den Fängen von »Hartz IV«

„Statt alle Transfersysteme daraufhin auszurichten und abzustimmen, dass Alleinerziehende, die heute bereits in nennenswertem Umfang einer Erwerbstätigkeit nachgehen, möglichst rasch unabhängig von »Hartz IV« leben können, verfestigt der »fordernde Sozialstaat« den Verbleib in der Fürsorgeabhängigkeit…“ Studie von Johannes Steffen vom Februar 2009 bei der Arbeitsnehmerkammer (pdf) http://www.arbeitnehmerkammer.de/sozialpolitik/doku/01_aktuell/ticker/2009/2009_02_24_Alleinerziehende.pdf

The fallacy of economics by coercion

Foundation for Economic Education
by William Anderson

02/25/09

How soon members of Congress forget that economics by coercion was a major cause of this crisis. Banks and lending agencies found themselves forced by the Community Reinvestment Act to loan money to people who did not qualify for conventional mortgages — and the ’subprime’ market that came from this practice ultimately blew up, bringing down banks, brokerage houses, and whole sections of the economy...

Obama’s “humane” Guantanamo is a bitter joke

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Andy Worthington

02/23/09

The ‘war on terror’ prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where the majority of the remaining 242 prisoners have been held for seven years without charge or trial, ‘complies with the humanitarian requirements of the Geneva Conventions,’ according to a government official who spoke to the New York Times after reading an 85-page report prepared for President Obama by Adm. Patrick M. Walsh, the vice chief of naval operations. The report was commissioned by the president, on his second day in office, as part of an executive order dealing with the closure of Guantanamo...

The two faces of Barack Obama

Reason
by Matt Welch

02/25/09

Obama aims to be the president of all Americans, a position that appears to be sincere. But I wonder whether in the process he might also want to consider appointing himself chief executive of his own head. All night long, with equally sonorous vigor, he served up confident assertions, only to state moments later, with equal conviction, their near opposite...

America’s human traffickers

Examiner
by Garry Reed

02/24/09

Why are today’s political plotters so hot for a military draft and mandatory civil servitude? Why are so many of them so eager to turn their once-sovereign fellow citizens into political string puppets? Do they know something we don’t? Do they know that the public treasury will be raped so long and deep and wide and hard that the only way the country will survive is to create a workforce of slaves? Do they know we’ll be fighting wars of conquest forever and need an endless supply of human drones?

Obama’s non-withdrawal withdrawal plan

CounterPunch
by Chris Floyd

02/25/09

It would be superfluous in us to point out that a plan to ‘end’ a war which includes the continued garrisoning of up to 50,000 troops in a hostile land is, in reality, a continuation of that war, not its cessation. To produce such a plan and claim that it ‘ends’ a war is the precise equivalent of, say, relieving one’s bladder on the back of one’s neighbor and telling him that the liquid is actually life-giving rain. But this is exactly what we are going to get from the Obama Administration in Iraq...
