http://truth-out.org/news/item/29567-despite-uptick-in-prisoner-release-inj=
ustices-persist-at-guantanamo
Adam Hudson, Truthout: In the wake of the Senate's report on CIA torture, t=
he military commission system at Guant=C3=A1namo Bay is grappling with infl=

ng-repression-in-the-uk
Aviva Stahl, Truthout: In the name of fighting terror, a controversial bill=

Why Unions Are the Seeds of Democracy
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29594-why-unions-are-the-seeds-of-democra=
cy=20
The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: It's no coincidence that th=
e period in US history which saw the highest levels of union participation =

r political system.

Why Are China's Rich So Eager to Exit?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/29578-why-are-china-s-rich-so-eager-to-exit
Salvatore Babones, Inequality.org: If China is such a great place to make m=

ree top reasons the rich give on surveys: better education, concerns about =
pollution and concerns about food safety.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/29579-the-student-debt-time-bomb
Chuck Collins, OtherWords: The vast majority of college debtors still suffe=
r in isolation, viewing their struggle as a personal problem, not a societa=

uscles, they'll be a force to be reckoned with.
The Possibility of Escape
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29570-the-possibility-of-escape
Kathy Kelly, Voices for Creative Nonviolence: Constructing prisons and fill=
ing them with people who posed little or no threat to our security didn't h=
appen secretively, without our consent. We watched, mesmerized perhaps, and=
allowed ourselves to become a country with the world's largest prison syst=
em.
