Throwing Money and High Technology at a Military Problem
http://www.truthout.org/people-first-and-dogs-too-case-study-throwing-money-and-high-technology-military-problem/1306421678
Dina Rasor, Truthout: "By now, people who have been following the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan know that improvised explosive devices (IED) have cost the most deaths and injuries in these two wars. These devices, many of them crude and homemade, have been causing death, tearing off our soldiers' limbs and causing the signature injury of these two wars - traumatic brain injury (TBI). As the casualties mounted up from IEDs in the first several years in each war, the Department of Defense (DoD) did what it does best: it threw money and high technology at the problem."
Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin Makes History by Signing Into Law Single-Payer Health Care
http://www.truth-out.org/vermont-governor-peter-shumlin-makes-history-signing-law-single-payer-health-care/1306423769
Zaid Jilani, Think Progress: "Last month, the Vermont Senate passed legislation, approved earlier by the House, that would establish a single payer health care system in the state. The legislation would make Vermont the first state in the nation to, as Gov. Peter Shumlin (D) said, make health care 'a right and not a privilege.' The governor's office just confirmed for ThinkProgress that Shumlin signed the legislation into law this morning, making the state the first in American history to pass legislation that will establish a single payer health care system to provide care to all citizens."
Can Unions Break From the Democrats? What a Real Declaration of Independence Would Mean
http://www.truthout.org/can-unions-break-democrats-what-real-declaration-independence-would-mean/1306427105
Amy Dean, Truthout: "On May 20, American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) President Richard Trumka issued a warning to those Democratic candidates who rely on labor's resources when running for office but hold social movements at arm's length once in office: become champions for working families, he told them, or don't assume that unions will be there for you in the future. Implicitly putting do-nothing Democrats on alert, he said, 'It doesn't matter if candidates and parties are controlling the wrecking ball or simply standing aside - the outcome is the same either way. If leaders aren't blocking the wrecking ball and advancing working families' interests, working people will not support them. This is where our focus will be - now, in 2012, and beyond.'"
Norman Solomon | Peace No Longer Even Gets Lip Service
http://www.truthout.org/peace-no-longer-even-gets-lip-service/1306433159
Norman Solomon, Truthout: "In times of war, US presidents have often talked about yearning for peace. But the last decade has brought a gradual shift in the rhetorical zeitgeist while a tacit assumption has taken hold - war must go on, one way or another. While absurdly hypocritical, such claims mouthed the idea that the United States need not be at war 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. But these days, peace gets less oratorical juice. In this era, after all, the amorphous foe known as 'terror' will never surrender."
Supreme Court Upholds Arizona Law Punishing Undocumented Immigrant Hiring
http://www.truthout.org/supreme-court-upholds-arizona-law-punishing-undocumented-immigrant-hiring/1306434976
Michael Doyle, McClatchy Newspapers: "The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld an Arizona law that harshly penalizes businesses for knowingly hire illegal immigrants. The highly anticipated decision keeps intact the 2007 Legal Arizona Workers Act. Employers could have their business licenses suspended or revoked for hiring illegal immigrants, under the law. The law also requires Arizona employers to use a federal program called E-Verify to check the immigration status of potential workers. Justices likewise upheld this provision, with Robert calling it 'entirely consistent' with federal law. In a ruling that could exert pressure on Congress and other states, the court - in what amounts to a 5-3 decision - declared that Arizona's law fits within the state's powers and does not infringe on federal turf."
News in Brief: Obama Wants to Finish the Job in Libya, and More ...
http://www.truthout.org/news-brief-obama-wants-finish-job-libya/1306430431
The United States and NATO are preparing for the long haul in Libya, where Western forces have engaged in military operations for two months to help rebels in their fight against Muammar Qaddafi's Army; Berkeley Law Professor Goodwin Lui requested that President Obama withdraw his nomination to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday after Senate Republicans successfully blocked the nomination with a filibuster last week; about 50 protesters in Paris have been detained after staging an action against the G-8 meeting that began in France today; the Labor Department reports that the number of Americans filing unemployment claims rose last week to 424,000 from a revised 414,000 in the prior week.
Democracy Talks - Listen Up!
http://www.truthout.org/democracy-talks-listen/1306424681
Michael Winship, Truthout: "If you don't buy 'Bill Moyers Journal: The Conversation Continues,' borrow it from the nearest local library (although please keep in mind, we are the sole support of a community of endangered pundits hiding in the swamplands of lower Manhattan. The choice is yours). Published by The New Press, the book is a collection of interviews augmented with new introductions and updates, a compilation of some of the best and most interesting conversations conducted during Moyers' PBS series from 2007-2010, as put together by Moyers and the production team. But more than that, 'Bill Moyers Journal: The Conversation Continues' functions as an informative and essential primer in contemporary American politics, society and literature, presented with a progressive point of view, yet covering the waterfront of ideas and opinions."
Israel and the Palestinians Through the Looking Glass
http://www.truthout.org/israel-and-palestinians-through-looking-glass/1306417741
Ira Chernus, TomDispatch: "The Israelis justify their intransigence with yet another looking-glass claim: 'We want peace more than anything, but they have no interest in peace.' Israelis love to repeat a phrase coined decades ago by their foreign minister Abba Eban, speaking about Arab leaders: 'They never miss a chance to miss a chance for peace.' In reality, it's the Palestinians who should lodge that complaint against Israel. 'Israel's right needs perpetual war' is the way the eminent Israeli intellectual Zeev Sternhell sums up the situation. Netanyahu, like all right-wing Israeli leaders, has in fact built his career on his image as the toughest of hawks when it comes to the Palestinians."
Latin America Progresses Forward - a Victory for Gay Rights
http://www.truth-out.org/latin-america-progresses-forward-victory-gay-rights/1306416309
Katie Soltis, Council on Hemispheric Affairs: "The recent surge in gay rights victories throughout Latin America is altogether stunning, considering the region has generally been regarded as very homophobic. The Catholic Church has traditionally been a formidable enemy to gay rights movements in the region, but the secularization of much of Latin America has led to the impressive expansion of opportunities for gay rights movements. Yet this success of gay rights movements throughout Latin America cannot be attributed solely to the declining importance of religion in the region. It is equally important, if not more so, to recognize the vital roles played by gay activist groups and the dynamic strategies these groups employ."
Young and Homeless: From the Streets to College (Part II)
http://www.truth-out.org/young-and-homeless-streets-college-part-ii/1306420971
Marcus Vega, New America Media: "Daniella Valencia, 20, a second-year student majoring in Sociology with a minor in Urbanization, has strawberry blonde hair, a bright smile and an optimistic attitude. She lives with a friend from church in an apartment not far from campus, paying her own rent and utilities. But prior to December, she lived at a Transitional Living Center (TLC) operated by the Fresno County Economic Opportunities Commission, which provides housing services to homeless youth aged 18-24. Having left behind the substance abuse and instability that characterized the environment of her two previous homes, Daniella was just looking for a place where she could focus on her schoolwork and move toward a positive future."
Confronting the System Through Taxation
http://www.truthout.org/confronting-system-through-taxation/1305641888
Susan Galleymore, Truthout: "Each year, unknown thousands of law-abiding American citizens refuse to pay taxes, driven by an ethical compunction not to pay for war. Nailing down the exact number of war tax resisters is difficult - as one resister explains, 'we tend not to cooperate with those sorts of endeavors' - but it is just as difficult to know how much of each tax dollar goes to the military. Even progressive organizations devoted to public education do not agree on how much of each tax dollar goes to war."
TRUTHOUT'S BUZZFLASH DAILY HEADLINES
In one state now, it is official: health care is "a right and not a privilege."
Vermont has broken through the barrier set up by those opposed to cost-efficient, single-payer systems and, now, has a law that commits the state to providing health care to all its residents.
According to ThinkProgress (http://www.truthout.org/vermont-governor-peter-shumlin-makes-history-signing-law-single-payer-health-care/1306423769), Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin signed the legislation today.
Of course, it won't happen immediately - and the state still must receive a waiver from the national health legislation passed last year - but unless the Republicans assume control of both houses of Congress and the White House in the next couple of years, Vermont will eventually provide a model of how "Medicare for all" works.
Once that happens, there will be no turning back. The Republicans will be unable to argue against a system that works and cuts the profits out that the privatized health insurance companies add to the cost of health care.
And the safety and security all Vermont residents will receive in knowing that they will no longer be at risk of losing their employee or private health insurance - or not be able to afford it - will become an attractive option to most Americans.
Vermont may be one of the smaller states in the US, but it has just taken one giant leap for the entire nation.
