Postal Banking: A Lifesaver for America's Poor. A social contract has existed between banks and the government since the early days of the republic.

Postal Banking: A Lifesaver for America's Poor

The government supports the banks through trust-inducing insurance, bailouts, liquidity protection, and a framework that allows the allocation of credit to the entire economy. Banks, in turn, operate as the central machinery of the economy by providing transaction services, a medium for trade and individual and business loans that spur economic growth. This entanglement between the state and the banking system must surely mean that banks should not exclude a significant portion of the public from the bounty of government support. This is not just a banking market problem but a threat to our society's democratic principles. When the state becomes so heavily involved in the banking system, that system cannot create or contribute to such a vast inequality.

(ANTIMEDIA Op-Ed) The concept of the “false flag” operation has become almost prohibitively stigmatized in recent years because of the 9/11 “truther” movement and the emotional fallout from the tragedies at Sandy Hook, Aurora, Boston and others.

5 Confirmed False Flag Operations and How to Spot Them in the Future

In spite of being labeled “conspiracy theories,” real, verifiable false flag events have taken place in the past.

Demonizing the Poor

Sam Brownback signed into law a new set of welfare rules titled, with an Orwellian flourish, the HOPE Act. The measure, Brownback stated, “provides an opportunity for success. It’s about the dignity of work and helping families move from reliance on a government pittance to becoming self-sufficient by developing the skills to find a well-paying job and build a career.” Yet as critics were quick to point out, the new law was clearly more about limiting poor people’s decisions than about building their careers. How Globalization Fuels Terrorism and Fundamentalism. By Helena Norberg-Hodge / localfutures.org For people in the modern world, there may be nothing more difficult to comprehend than the group calling itself the Islamic State, or ISIS.

How Globalization Fuels Terrorism and Fundamentalism

The beheadings, rapes, and other acts of cruelty seem beyond understanding, as does the wanton destruction of priceless ancient monuments. Perhaps most mystifying of all is the way ISIS has been able to recruit young men — and even some young women — from the industralized West, particularly Europe: the conventional wisdom is that the cure for ethnic and religious violence is “development,” education, and the opportunities provided by free markets.
