Poor Richard's News: 4th grader embarrasses New York City's DOE with hidden camera documentary about their dishonest lunch program →

I love this kid. He has the smarts to become a great investigative journalist.

Zachary Maxwell is his name, and he’s a whiz. He decided to document the dishonesty of New York City’s Department of Education about their school lunch program. His findings are both disgusting and hilarious.

Here’s a clip from his film:

The difference between Zachary and this clown is Zachary saw something he thought was news worthy and documented it. Then let people see for themselves what was going on. You however spin it to support the narrative that government is an innate evil.

But to that kid Zach, listen man school lunch is always shitty and has always been shitty. Nonetheless great work and stay passionate about giving people the news.

Your Tax Dollars at Work: State Dept. Lobbies Abroad for Monsanto Biotech Seeds →

Monsanto sees the international market as the source of enormous potential profit, if only foreign governments would let Monsanto make inroads into their agricultural economies. And, in a major example of corporate welfare, the State Department has marshaled its resources to lobby for Monsanto.

"As Americans, we have this naïve assumption that people all over the world are struggling and way behind us. They’re not. Sweden and South Korea have more advanced high speed internet networks. Japan has the most advanced trains and transportation systems. Norwegians make more money. The biggest and most advanced plane in the world is flown out of Singapore. The tallest buildings in the world are now in Dubai and Shanghai. Meanwhile, the US has the highest incarceration rate in the world."

10 Things Most Americans Don’t Know About America http://bananenplanet.wordpress.com/2012/07/17/10-things-most-americans-dont-know-about-america/ (via curlycherie)

There are two areas where the USA is way out in front of the rest of the world: war and prison. The technology of killing is the main investment of US national energy, and of course the semi-public semi-private incarceration economy is flourishing while schools and roads crumble. In many other quality-of-life terms — housing, healthcare, public transportation, public access to technology, mental health support, support for people with disabilities, childcare, primary education, maternity support, social safety net — I think a lot of US Americans personally know that things are not exactly rosy but see no options for fixing it.

"Elohim,” the name for the creative power in Genesis, is a female plural, a fact that generations of learned rabbis and Christian theologians have all explained as merely grammatical convention. The King James and most other Bibles translate it as “God,” but if you take the grammar literally, it seems to mean “goddesses.” Al Shaddai, god of battles, appears later, and YHWH, mispronounced Jehovah, later still."

Or, perhaps it represents an androgynous unity, creator/destroyer, the Baphomet - the Great Initiator of Life.
