Mother Jones: The Natenyahu connection

I have a very good team of extraordinarily experienced, highly successful consultants, a couple of people in particular who have done races around the world. I didn't realize it. These guys in the US—the Karl Rove equivalents—they do races all over the world: in Armenia, in Africa, in Israel. I mean, they work for Bibi Netanyahu in his race. So they do these races and they see which ads work, and which processes work best, and we have ideas about what we do over the course of the campaign. I'd tell them to you, but I'd have to shoot you.

Romney's Abortion Garbage Investment Leads to Other Questionable Investments from Erin Gibson

Mother Jones uncovered Bain Capital documents filed with the SEC which confirm that Mitt Romney was an active investor in Stericycle - a company that disposes of medical waste, like aborted fetuses and other afterbirth garbage. Running on a pro-life platform, Romney will face intense scrutiny for profiting off of dead babies, but the backlash will be like a bee sting compared to the pummeling he’ll take in the media when they read this - The Definitive List of Romney’s WORST investments.

COMPANY: HEART OF GOLD SALVATION
SERVICE/PRODUCT: Holocaust Gold
In an attempt to diversify his gold investments, Romney has sunk millions in “Holocaust Gold” - actual gold taken from Holocaust victims that is sold at pop-up shops around the U.S.

Where is the next Mother Jones?

Mary Harris "Mother" Jones  born in Cork, Ireland, was a prominent American labor and community organizer, who helped coordinate major strikes and co-founded the Industrial Workers of the World.

She worked as a teacher and dressmaker but after her husband and four children all died of yellow fever.  After  her workshop was destroyed in a fire in 1871 she began working as an organizer for the Knights of Labor and the United Mine Workers union.

She was a very effective speaker, punctuating her speeches with stories, audience participation, humor and dramatic stunts. 

From 1897 (when she was 60) she was known as Mother Jones and in 1902 she was called "the most dangerous woman in America" for her success in organizing mine workers and their families against the mine owners. 

In 1903, upset about the lax enforcement of the child labor laws in the Pennsylvania mines and silk mills, she organized a Children's March from Philadelphia to the home of then president Theodore Roosevelt in New York.

Mother Jones: Senate's Income Inequality Hearing

Some of these charts aren't news in Rightardia. We have been talking about this for along time.The top 1 per cent are now doing as well as the most affluent Americans in the Guilded Age prior to the Great Depression.

The top marginal tax rate has a lot to do with the national deficit. JFK dropped it to 70 per cent, Ronald Reagan dropped the top rate to 50 per cent and then to under 30 per cent. Clinton raised it to 40 per cent and Bush cut it back to 35 per cent. Bush also lowered capital gains to 15 cent and suspended the Estate Tax.

Did the Bush tax cuts accelerate the Great Repression. Rightardia would attribute the Great Recession to the Bush tax cuts and Bush Ownership society policies that lead to the real estate meltdown.

The GOP will attribute the meltdown to Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, a position Wikipedia does not support.

Likewise, Republicans have suggested Chris Dodd and Barney Franks have a lot to do with the meltdown. Time magazine listed the top 25 people to blame for the financial crisis:

You won't find either Senator Dodd or Rep. Franks name on the Time  list.
