LINKS BY GEORGE JULY 10th

Donations for this newsletter are very appreciated, but never necessary.
I will continue to do my best in research and networking articles of interest
even as our family financial challenges worsen. For anyone that has sent
donations in the past, I am very grateful. Even small contributions are
happily welcomed as checks or to our pay pal account. But even without
any donations, just knowing that important information is spreading in
these times is a satisfaction.
Not every article appeals to everyone. But I hope my layout is user-friendly in weaving from the spiritual interests and on to environmental, global, political, economic and music areas. Skimming the headlines is one way to at least have a collage of each newsletter's focus.


If you would like to make a donation, we have a PayPal contact at:

gsrain@yahoo.com

If you would like to send a check or money order let me know and I can tell you our mailing address.


For the past year, we have been nesting on the lovely Puna side of Big Island Hawaii where we are happy to be living simply. Land exploitation and tourism are minimal and there are many alternative communities, events, markets and organic permaculture. Land prices are also quite low and I am hearing of conscious groups of people here seeking land partners to purchase together with. Let me know if interested and I can help in the networking.


Check out my updated blog images towards the bottom.

by Chris Hedges :
"The most important moral and intellectual voices within a disintegrating
society are slowly discredited when their nonviolent protests and calls for
justice cannot alter intransigent and corrupt systems of power. The repeated
acts of peaceful civil disobedience, efforts at electoral and political reform
and the fight to protect the rule of law are dismissed as useless by an embittered,
dispossessed and betrayed public. The demagogues and hatemongers, the
purveyors of violence, easily seduce enraged and bewildered masses in the
final stages of collapse with false promises of vengeance, new glory and moral renewal."

QUOTES FOR THE WEEK:


“The best way to do for the progress of humanity is to step forward yourself. That might sound individualistic and egoistic, but isn’t, it’s just common sense.“
Sri Aurobindo


"There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final revolution." Aldous Huxley




"I think our governments will remain virtuous for many centuries as long as they are chiefly agricultural; and this will be as long as there shall be vacant lands in any part of America. When they get piled upon one another in large cities as in Europe, they will become corrupt as in Europe."-- Thomas Jefferson -- (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President



"There's only one party in America today, with two wings, the conservative wing, known as Democrats, and the reactionary wing, known as Republicans." - Gore Vidal



"In the U. S. the Democrats have become what the Republicans used to be and the Republicans have become lunatics." - Phil Gasper


"We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace, business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering. They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob." Franklin Delano Roosevelt also known by his initials, FDR - 32nd President of the United States (1933-1945)



"Today television news is watched more often than people read newspapers, than people listen to the radio, than people read or gather any other form of communication. The reason: People are lazy. With television you just sit - watch - listen. The thinking is done for you." Roger Ailes (president of Fox News Channel) while working for the Nixon administration



"All experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." - United States Declaration of Independence
From my friend Siva:
Those who think the Founding Fathers of America were supporters of capitalism should get their ignorance cleared, before getting overly enthusiastic over capitalism and thinking that it is their patriotic duty to be so. Defending capitalism need not be (and is not) the duty of every American citizen in the name of patriotism. It is the duty of every American citizen to fight for individual rights and individual freedom, because those were the foundations of this nation, not capitalism.
Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property - until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."



"No man can put a chain about the ankle of his fellow man without at last finding the other end fastened about his own neck." - Frederick Douglass



"No power but Congress can declare war,but what is the value of this constitutional provision, if the President of his own authority may make such military movements as must bring on war?" -- Daniel Webster (1782-1852), US Senator 1846



"Wars are caused by undefended wealth." -- General Douglas MacArthur - (1880-1964) WWII Supreme Allied Commander of the Southwest Pacific, Supreme United Nations Commander
"To found a great empire for the sole purpose of raising up a people of customers, may at first sight appear a project fit only for a nation of shopkeepers. It is, however, a project altogether unfit for a nation of shopkeepers, but extremely fit for a nation that is governed by shopkeepers." Adam Smith



The world looks with some awe upon a man who appears unconcernedly indifferent to home, money, comfort, rank, or even power and fame. The world feels not without a certain apprehension, that here is someone outside its jurisdiction; someone before whom its allurements may be spread in vain; someone strangely enfranchised, untamed, untrammelled by convention, moving independent of the ordinary currents of human action. -
Winston Churchill, politician and statesman (1874-1965)



"The conquest of the earth, which mostly means the taking it away from those who have a different complexion or slightly flatter noses than ourselves, is not a pretty thing when you look into it." - Joseph Conrad



"To found a great empire for the sole purpose of raising up a people of customers, may at first sight appear a project fit only for a nation of shopkeepers. It is, however, a project altogether unfit for a nation of shopkeepers, but extremely fit for a nation that is governed by shopkeepers." Adam Smith



"It is part of human nature to hate the man you have hurt." - Tacitus c.56 - c.177 AD



"Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future." - Adolf Hitler



"The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment." - Robert M. Hutchins



"The American Dream has run out of gas. The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It's over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now" - J. G. Ballard
Where there is no vision, the people perish
---Proverbs xxix, 18
