The war on drugs has failed and should make way for a global shift towards decriminalising
His intervention, which will reignite growing debate in Europe about how to tackle drugs, was welcomed yesterday by campaigners for drug law reform who increasingly see the impact on developing countries where drugs are produced as critical to the argument.
"After decades of overflights, interdictions, spraying and raids on jungle drug factories, Latin America remains the world's largest exporter of cocaine and marijuana," Cardoso writes. "It is producing more and more opium and heroin. It is developing the capacity to mass produce synthetic drugs. Continuing the drugs war with more of the same is ludicrous."

too many vaccinations AT THE SAME TIME
Recently, a mother came to see me, desperate because her 2 1/2 year old son had just been diagnosed with autism. Her son, Sam, was born bright and happy, was breast-fed, and received the best medical care available (including all the vaccinations he could possibly have). He talked, walked, loved, and played normally -- that is, until after his measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination at 22 months. He received diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, measles, mumps and rubella, chicken pox, hepatitis A and B, influenza, pneumonia, hemophilous, and meningitis vaccines -- all before he was 2 years old. Then something changed."

predatory the industry has become, financial services industry banks
Last week, he stirred up a hornet’s nest by suggesting the unthinkable, namely, that the financial services industry needs to shrink. In reality, quite a few people have made that observation, but anyone in authority who dares say such a thing out loud must be beaten back. ... The financial services sector is even more important to England than to the US, but they also have been longer at the empire and banking game than we have, and as a result, at least some recognize the importance of having sound institutional structures. We have completely lost the plot in the US. While Timothy Geithner is giving lip service to having banks draw up resolution plans, every measure the Treasury has proposed had either been bank-friendly from the get-go, mere posturing, or half hearted and easily beaten back. The Turner discussion of the need to simplify legal structures reveals what a serious version of wind-down plan would need to include, and it is a virtual certainty nothing of the sort will be required in the US. " Lord Turner backed international moves to force the big, systemically important banks to draw up “living wills”, wind-down plans in the event they fail. http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2009/09/fsas-lord-turner-tells-banks-to-get-a-death-wish.html
But the chairman of the Financial Services Authority said this drive would also have the benefit of unravelling banks’ structural complexity used to minimise tax….
Lawyers predicted that banks would resist fiercely any wholesale restructuring that could cost them hundreds of millions of dollars. They also warned that any such moves would be extremely hard to implement.
Louise Higginbottom, head of tax at Norton Rose, the law firm, said: “Many banks operate through a complex series of subsidiaries and branches.

Lyrics to Senza Paura :
(feat. Elio E Le Storie Tese)
Ma come fai quando sei bambino
a prendere coraggio e fede nel destino
se papa' ti mette
per castigo al buio
poi di notte a letto
"zitto che c'e' il lupo
zitto che c'e' il lupo
zitto che c'e' il lupo"
E la mamma dice
"chiamo l'uomo nero
chiamo il babau ti mangia tutto intero
nella notte scura
ti fa la puntura
ti fa la puntura
ti fa la puntura"
ma passa per il buio senza paura
ma passa per il buio senza paura
ma passa per il buio senza paura
Poi all'improvviso ti arriva l'eta'
di amare follemente l'uomo che non va
non c'e' via d'uscita ne' di qua ne' di la'
tuo padre gridera'
tua madre pregunta'
tua madre pregunta'
tua madre pregunta'
l'amante poi si butta giu' dal fabbricato
perche' quello che e' facile diventa complicato
dato
che la vita e' dura
che la vita e' dura
che la vita e' dura
ma passa per l'amore senza paura
ma passa per l'amore senza paura
ma passa per l'amore senza paura
Il pericolo c'e' e fa parte del gioco
tu non farci caso se no vivi poco
tieni sempre duro
comincia di nuovo
comincia di nuovo
comincia di nuovo
anche per la strada tu
stai rischiando
stai soprappensiero
stai rimuginando
passa la vettura della spazzatura
ed il conducente
aumenta l'andatura
aumenta l'andatura
aumenta l'andatura
ma va per la tua strada senza paura
ma va per la tua strada senza paura
ma va per la tua strada senza paura
ed un bel giorno di qualunque settimana
ed un bel giorno di qualunque settimana
battono alla porta
battono alla porta
e' un telegramma
lei ti sta chiamando
le' un telegramma lei ti sta chiamando
Per uno viene presto per l'altro tardi
comunque presto o tardi tranquilla e sicura
viene senza avviso
viene e ti cattura
viene e ti cattura
viene e ti cattura
ma va passa per la morte senza paura
ma va passa per la morte senza paura
ma va passa per la morte senza paura
buio
amore
per la tua via
per la morte
this song is so so beautiful
about love
fear
darkness
destiny
courage like a child to face life
Mas como você faz quando você é criança
para tomar coragem e fé no destino
Se o papai o coloca
para o castigo no escuro
Então, à noite na cama
"Cale-se lá que 'o lobo
Cale-se lá que 'o lobo
Cale-se lá que 'o lobo'
E a mãe diz
"Eu chamo o homem negro
Eu chamo o bicho-papão que come um pedaço
na noite escura
faz você punção
faz você punção
faz furo "
mas em meio à escuridão, sem medo
mas em meio à escuridão, sem medo
mas em meio à escuridão, sem medo
Então de repente você atingir a idade '
amar loucamente o homem errado
Não há nenhuma maneira "lá fora" aqui ele 'da'
seu pai vai chorar '
pregunta sua mãe "
pregunta sua mãe "
pregunta sua mãe "
amante então pula fora 'da construção
porque "o que e 'fácil tornar-se complicado
dada
que a vida e 'hard
que a vida e 'hard
que a vida e 'hard
mas passa pelo amor sem medo
mas passa pelo amor sem medo
mas passa pelo amor sem medo
O perigo existe e faz parte de The Game
Você não deixe que eu ou apenas viver
Manter rígido
começa novamente
começa novamente
começa novamente
também para a maneira como você
're arriscar
're pensativo
're mulling
o carro passa o lixo
e motorista
aumentando o ritmo
aumentando o ritmo

mas deve estar no seu caminho sem medo
mas deve estar no seu caminho sem medo
mas deve estar no seu caminho sem medo
e um belo dia, em qualquer semana
e um belo dia, em qualquer semana
batendo na porta
batendo na porta
e 'um telegrama
ela está chamando
a "um telegrama Ela está chamando
Por um breve para o outro final
No entanto, mais cedo ou mais tarde, tranquila e segura
vem sem aviso
vem e você pegar
vem e você pegar
vem e você pegar
mas deve passar a morte sem medo
mas deve passar a morte sem medo
mas deve passar a morte sem medo

Senator Tim Johnson jerk arse low life distroying american banking system to help pay day lenders and credit card industry
Senator Tim Johnson ascends to the chairmanship of the Senate Banking Committee, the biggest winners will be Wall Street, pay-day lenders and credit card companies. The biggest losers: widows and orphans" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/01/banks-favorite-dem-set-to_n_273237.html
Wall Street’s job is to distribute paper and transfer wealth from the many to the few, itself. The media
Right now, thanks to the Fed, the dealer community, particularly the Fed’s Primary Dealers who dominate not only the Treasury market but the stock market as well, are rolling in oceans of cash, pumped directly to them by the Fed. They are using most of it to pay down debt by selling much of their questionable assets to the Fed, particularly mortgage debt and corporate debt, but they are using some of it to manipulate stocks higher. They do that because, one, it’s easy for them to do it, and two, because it’s much easier to get the suckers, oops, I mean the buy side institutions, to take the other side of the trade when prices are rising.
So as long as the Fed pumps this cash to them, stock prices will go up. It has nothing to do with the economy. It has nothing to do with discounting the future. The idea that stock prices discount the future is ridiculous. Stock markets are comprised of people, or at least the people who wrote the computer programs that do most of the millisecond trading that dominates price action. .... The media continues to feature the same people telling the same idiotic stories, pursuing the same tried and true practices of distributing insider stock, especially their own, at high prices to the masses. The cash goes right from our pockets to the pockets of the financiers, with the media getting a huge cut in the process. They are co conspirators in a massive criminal scheme, some of it legal, some of it not, to separate people from their money. This time they did it a little too well, and therein lies a problem for the economy. Few have any money left to transfer. The Fed and Treasury have set up a scam over the past year to make it look as if there’s still money, but what they have actually done is to transfer risk from the private sector to the public sector, in other words us, current and future generations of US taxpayers. In the process they’ve pumped a couple of trillion of new government debt into the economy and the markets over the past couple of months making it look as though everything is gonna be all right. .... In fact, things are getting worse as we speak, and they will continue to get worse for the short term, the intermediate term, and the long term– for as long as the same people are in charge who caused this mess in the first place; for as long as the media continues to give a platform to those same people who were responsible for all the–let’s call them what the are–crimes– that put us where we are. For as long as those in power in Washington give those same people the same power they have always had, rather than punishing them for their “mistakes”, we are going to be in this mess. So now we have transferred trillions of bad debt, some of it completely worthless paper, on to the books of the Fed and the Federal Government. What can the outcome possibly be? Ultimately default? Devaluation? Hyperinflation? Slow motion economic collapse such as that which is currently under way? One of the problems is that zero interest rates forces both people and businesses to liquidate principle in order to pay the bills. So the capital pie shrinks. A shrinking capital base means shrinking income. Shrinking income means that people will need to liquidate even more capital. The system collapses in a chain reaction." http://wallstreetexaminer.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/taxreceipts.png
"Meanwhile lending institutions and now the government pretend that the losses don’t exist, reporting unbelievably, that the money supply hasn’t collapsed along with everything else. They have no choice. They have to keep the con going, lest there be one final, fatal run on the banks and/or the money market funds.
The Fed’s zero interest rate policy is causing the very contraction it is seeking to avoid because it does not allow anyone to earn a fair and reasonable return on their investments. In order to pay the bills people and business must liquidate assets. At the same time, they are desperately trying to pay off debt. So the pie shrinks and money disappears. The media is the sole decision maker about who we get to pay attention to. If they feature only liars and fools, then of course it will seem that no one saw this coming. And they feature almost entirely liars, fools, and criminal manipulators. ....Because the media was and is a co-conspirator, witting or unwitting, with the Wall Street criminal distribution machine. The media is populated by conformist morons, too fat and lazy, too coddled by their Wall Street sponsors to be bothered by anything so mundane as to search for the truth. I mean, it’s not like it was hard to find. ...A whole lot of ordinary people “got it.” Only the mainstream infomercial media didn’t get it, because they are, after all, on the payroll of the Wall Street We are facing a crisis much greater than any we have faced so far. The Fed will not continue to pump cash into the pockets of the Primary Dealers indefinitely as they have been doing since March. When that cash gusher stops, or even slows, the stock market will again collapse. It simply cannot be sustained at these levels without that subsidy. They missed the biggest collapse in the last 75 years. Knowing what’s likely to happen is not their job. Their job is to talk a good game so that Wall Street can continue its game.
Ripping off the rest of us.
So Good Night, and Good Luck." http://wallstreetexaminer.com/get-instant-access-to-real-time-insights/
