Free kibbles

ECONOMY:

Half of all jobs added last month were added by McDonalds. Flipping burgers is a growing business. Chart of unemployment over the last four years.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

Movie claims fracking is responsible for leaking natural gas into water, but the effect is natural.

POLICE STATE:

Miami police seize man's phone at gunpoint and destroy it because they just recorded the police shooting a man dead.
"But what they didn’t know was that Narces Benoit had removed the SIM card and hid it in his mouth, which means the video survived."
That's awesome. This guy is heroic.
"Benoit and his girlfriend also said police smashed several phones from other witnesses, so hopefully they were able to recover the videos as well."
We did this to ourselves. None of these cops will be prosecuted for assault with a deadly weapon as they should be.
"The new details emerged a day after police announced they had found a gun in the car they had shot up.It took police two-and-a-half days to find the gun in the Hyundai but they still haven’t determined if it was discharged that night."
Two and a half days. Are they selling land in Florida too?
"Four innocent bystanders were shot during that shooting, most likely from police bullets."
Every day we see outrageous examples of the ubiquitous corruption of the police in the US, but for some reason, it never penetrates into the brains of the American people.

WAR:

Report claims a top al Qaeda agent was killed by a US drone attack in Pakistan. How can we know? We have no way of verifying any claims like this.

LOCAL:

Very few people seem to understand that all the money in politics and lobbying was originally our tax dollars. It's money the government takes from us in taxes or forces us to pay corporations through regulations that drive up prices. Then the groups which receiver our tax dollars funnel a portion of it back into their lobbying efforts. The Dayton Tea Party realizes that and is suing two organizations to make it public.

Local police corruption.
