Dahr Jamail | BP: Four Years On, No Restoration in Sight
http://truth-out.org/news/item/23147-bp-four-years-on-no-restoration-in-sight
Dahr Jamail, Truthout: For large numbers of fishermen and coastal residents living in the impact zone of BP's 2010 oil spill, encompassing Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, the disaster has never ended.

Dean Baker | Economic Policy in a Post-Piketty World
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/23205-economic-policy-in-a-post-piketty-world
Dean Baker, Truthout: Thomas Piketty's new book, Capital in the 21st Century, has done a remarkable job of focusing public attention on the growth of inequality in the last three decades and the risk that it will grow further in the decades ahead. This raises the obvious question of what can be done to offset this tendency toward rising inequality?

Knowledge Is Crime in Washington: Kidnapping, Torture, Assassination and Perjury Are Not
http://truth-out.org/news/item/23214-too-big-to-jail-why-kidnapping-torture-assassination-and-perjury-are-no-longer-crimes-in-washington
Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch: There is but a single crime that can be committed within the national security state for which our leaders now believe jail time is appropriate. In Washington today, knowledge is the only crime. That's a political reality of the 21st century. But how wide is the category, and is knowledge always a crime when it ends up in the wrong brains?
Chris Hedges | The Rhetoric of Violence
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/23208-the-rhetoric-of-violence
Chris Hedges, Truthdig: Chauvinism, violent retribution, a perverted Christianity and the celebration of a mythic Anglo-Saxon history will sever sections of the population from reality, enticing them into an American fascism. This is what is coming. It cannot be fought with counter-violence. It can be fought only with ideas. We better prepare.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/23224-five-things-to-know-about-how-corporations-block-access-to-everything-from-miracle-drugs-to-science-research
Lynn Stuart Parramore, AlterNet: Should a company be able to patent a breast cancer gene? What about a species of soybean? How about a tool for basic scientific research? Or even a patent for acquiring patents. There's increasing concern that intellectual property rights may be keeping us from getting the things we need.
