Madness, Civilization and Media

A powerful article by Antonio Lopez, Madness, Civilization and Media discussing our collective abduction from being bonded to mother earth.

Excerpt from article, "Yet western civilization is itself a removal and displacement machine. To quote Andy Warhol, 'Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery.' This is the story of the past 5,000 years. We have been kidnapped from Earth, but fail to recognize the aberration. Is it fair to say that as hostages to abstract principles, we suffer from collective Stockholm Syndrome -- that we have bonded with an abusing overlord?"

Small Farmers See Promise in Obama's Plans

President Obama may not have appointed a locavore to be the secretary of Agriculture, but he has ordered his administration to go after Big Agra with antitrust laws. A joint effort by the departments of Agriculture and Justice will look into business practices by seed companies, beef packers, and dairies, NPR reports. The government will begin next year “to learn about anti-competitive conduct in agricultural markets,” by hearing from farmers at workshops across the country. We bet the farmers have some whoppers.

Vaccine Nation

In his documentary film Vaccine Nation, award-winning investigative film director Dr. Gary Null challenges the basic health claims by government health agencies and pharmaceutical firms that vaccines are perfectly safe. This is one of the most critical questions facing today's children and future generations to come. If inoculation with a large regimen of vaccines is safe, what can account for the rapid increase in autism and other mental disabilities that are now at epidemic proportions? And why isn't the sudden onset of neurological illnesses in children being treated as an urgent crisis by our government and medical industries?
