1.[Twitter Enables Censorship,
Boycotts Begin]/Social media website Twitter announced Thursday that it will begin blocking certain messages (tweets) on a country-to-country basis./Twitter has been known as a vehicle for free speech as well as a source for social and political organizing /Governments will now request Twitter to take down certain ‘illegal’ tweets, which will be blocked from its citizens but may still be visible by users outside of the censored country./ Many have now raised concerns that this will open the door for repressive governmental censorship, in some ways defeating the benefits of Twitter all together/(That’s what I think also- What do YOU think? Assuming YOU are still thinking for YOURSELF, and not the brainwashed propaganda put out by corporate media and their lackey politicians.)-(Do YOU Agree?)-(This is why WE Occupy)
2.[Leaked Data: Some Biofuels As Bad As Tar Sands]/According to leaked data from the European Commission obtained by EuroActiv, greenhouse gas emissions from some biofuels are higher than those from fossil fuels, when Indirect Land Usage Change (ILUC) is factored in. (Sounds like it might be true; however, I believe we can find enough substitutes for petroleum products to make them more favorable without damaging the wetlands-What do YOU think?)
3.[Public Eye Awards: 2012's Top Corporate Villian List]by [Common Dreams]/Brazilian mining giant Vale and UK-based Barclays bank were given the dubious honor of being the top vote-getters in this year’s survey asking participants to name the world’s most destructive international corporations./The deregulation of world markets has greatly expanded the range of transnational corporations./The Public Eye [website] (No offense to The Public Eye, but in my opinion there should be two seperate awards-One for destruction of the environment, and one for the destruction of human lufe life maybe the corporation making the most money off weapons-This is what I think what do YOU think?)

1.Byron Dorgan on Making Banks Play by the Rules/Moyers & Company | BillMoyers.com/ YOU will have to go to [BillMoyers.com] to view this-Finally the truth about our financial problems, and I agree; what I came away with if our leaders would study history, and our leaders would put the country first and not their pocket books, and their jobs this would never have happened)-.)-(Do YOU Agree?)-(This is why WE Occupy)
2[Jeffersonian Exceptionalism]Paul R. Pillar on minding our own business/The American exceptionalism that has become an unchallengeable part of political discourse in the United States has taken on substantive trappings that are not at all intrinsic to the concept that America is indeed an exceptional place/Those trappings include a sense that some principles and rules of international relations somehow do not [apply] to the United States./ They often include an attitude that the United States can do right but no wrong.(Anything American do that is illegal is wrong.).)-(Do YOU Agree?)-(This is why WE Occupy)
