hook-as-fracking-boom-collapses
Ben Ptashnik, Truthout: As Congress removes restrictions on taxpayers baili=
ng out the too-big-to-fail banks, the right is blaming environmentalists an=
d Russia for the demise of the fracking boom. In reality, the banks' junk b=
onds and derivatives have flooded Wall Street, and now the fracking bubble =
threatens another financial crisis.
FCC Chairman Wheeler Moves Toward Strong Net Neutrality Rules

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/28424-galt-and-god-the-courtship-betw=
een-ayn-randians-and-right-wing-christians
James Sanford, Truthout: An odd collaboration between Ayn Rand disciples an=

on and ideological extremism on the Tea Party right.
US Policy on Cuba: From Regime Change to Systemic Change
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/28413-us-policy-on-cuba-from-regime-chang=
e-to-systemic-change
Cliff DuRand, Truthout: Regardless of other changes in US policy on Cuba, P=

ility-on-us-torture-program
Sahar Aziz, Truthout: Will the United States do what it demands of other na=

Why Protest Won't Get the NYPD What It Wants
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/28428-why-protest-won-t-get-the-nypd-what=
-it-wants
Kate Aronoff, Waging Nonviolence: The NYPD's "slowdown strike" has unwittin=
gly placed the police in an awkward position: With arrest rates plummeting =
and no significant harm done to public safety, the department may soon find=
itself having disproven the value of Broken Windows policing polices that =
civilian protesters have been calling for an end to all along.

ete Farce"
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/28383-obamacare-counselor-on-the-surface-=
people-have-choices-but-it-s-a-complete-farce
Rebecca Burns, In These Times: "The [Affordable Care Act] took the health-c=
are system, which is messed up already, and then it added an application an=
d an online shopping system on top of it, and then more layers of tax law a=
nd immigration law on top of that. It didn't actually make the health syste=
m itself better," says one health-care application counselor.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28426-carbon-counterattack-how-big-oil-i=
s-responding-to-the-anti-carbon-movement
Michael T. Klare, TomDispatch: While climate denialism still figures in the=
propaganda of some carbon companies, they have now largely chosen to embra=
ce another strategy - extolling the benefits of fossil fuels and highlighti=
ng their contributions to human well-being and progress.

http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/28429-obama-should-not-prop-up-mexico-s-c=
orrupt-president
Laura Carlsen, CIP Americas Program: Mexican president Pe=C3=B1a Nieto pres=

The justice system has gotten worse, not better, under attempts at reform =
that have been heavily funded by the US government.

Tilting at Turbines
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28431-tilting-at-turbines
Emily Schwartz Greco, OtherWords: While renewable energy remains vulnerable=
