http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/20743-the-graying-of-our-incarceration-nation
Conor F. McGovern, Truthout: America's broken criminal justice system has consigned millions of people - overwhelmingly male, disproportionately people of color - to poverty and poor health as they age. It's time for the aging community to play a role in this fight.
Could We Make Opposition to Iran War Obligatory for Blue State Democrats?
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/20877-could-we-make-opposition-to-iran-war-obligatory-for-blue-state-democrats
Robert Naiman, Truthout: It's not obvious that most blue state Democrats understand that support for new sanctions on Iran now will be scored as support for war. Democratic friends don't let Democratic friends support wars of choice.

http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/20875-italys-slow-food-pioneer-how-my-love-for-food-ripened-into-a-lifes-work
Sarah van Gelder, Yes! Magazine: "Our philosophy is good, clean and fair food; good because it is healthy and tasty; clean because it is produced with low environmental impact and with animal welfare in mind; and fair because it respects the work of those who produce, process and distribute it," says Carlo Petrini.
Eugene Robinson | The GOP's Growing Divide
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/20871-the-gops-growing-divide
Eugene Robinson, Truthout: The Republican Party, which should have the wind at its back, enters 2014 in disarray bordering on open warfare. Voters appear willing to listen to what the party has to say. If only the GOP had a message.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/20876-when-schools-close-and-force-kids-to-walk-through-gang-territory-this-is-what-can-happen
Crystal Shepeard, Care2: The Chicago Public School system closed 50 public schools in largely Hispanic and African-American neighborhoods in an effort to cut costs. The move forced 13,000 students into new schools, many of whom would have to cross areas known for gang violence.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/20874-qa-libyan-women-were-handed-over-as-spoils-of-war
Karlos Zurutuza, IPS News: Unless immediate changes are enforced, Libya is heading toward an "Afghan" model regarding women's rights, Aicha Almagrabi, a Libyan writer and senior women rights activist, reports from her residence in Tripoli.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/20890-guantanamo-twelve-years-of-us-war-crimes

http://truth-out.org/news/item/20878-barry-knight-is-fed-up-with-the-fed-he-thinks-you-should-be-too
Anne Meador, DC Media Group: "What's going to happen when your pension is sucked up by these corporate cabals of bankers? What's going to happen when your life savings is taken away?" That's what Barry Knight demanded to know as police hustled him off the steps of the headquarters of the Federal Reserve Bank.
What America Would Look Like if Libertarians Got Their Way
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/20872-what-america-would-look-like-if-libertarians-got-their-way
Richard Eskow, AlterNet: These four libertarian/conservative dystopias are offered, as Rod Serling used to say in The Twilight Zone, "for your consideration." The unaided needy. Selfishness run riot. A North America dotted with Third World colonies. And a blighted landscape where Others are subjugated to Owners.
