Howling to the Moon…(as in Congress.)

Thought of the Day
(or 143 days to be exact)

We are working under a madman – a lunatic and coup – a rogue Congress that does NOT serve the people, and our planet is up for grabs. The press keeps trying to make SOME sense to this madman, his nonsensical speech, his…..crazy – and there is none to be had.

Are WE all insane? Is that what was and IS wanted by the Republican National Committee? What is the purpose of driving this country, its’ laws and respect into the ground and taking the rest of the planet with it?

Moral compass and humanity is in decay and we are being herded like Lemmings off the cliff – with evidently no voice or power to our millions of voices, as we howl to the moon (while there is one).

For the Indigenous people of Standing Rock: The Government and Big Oil has betrayed you, millions of Americans, Clean Water and Mother Earth.

After months of protests by the Peaceful Water Protectors and the Indigenous peoples of Standing Rock (rightful owners of this treaty land) – the Militarized Police squads representing #DAPL Energy Transfer Partners Big Oil have forced the Indigenous off of their own land, arrested and brutalized the #Natives and Water Protectors – forced them at gunpoint onto nearby reservations, raided those reservations and continue to push them off of each reservation that they go to.  This is not justice – this is not upholding US/Native Treaties.
This is a fascist Government protecting one BIG OIL corporation for profit.

We as Americans, and the World, are watching – watching as this Government allows terroristic attacks against the Indigenous peoples – and allows our CLEAN WATER supplies to be poisoned, all for corporate greed and immediate profits.

Now is the time to persevere – with the Letter of the LAW, fighting this in impartial courts. It is our sacred duty – to our land and to our people! Aho!

Do we STAND with the Water Protectors at Standing Rock or bow to corporate Dakota Access [DAPL]- rotters of our Planet?

 I believe that those who are invested in, or control the enterprises of, OIL look aside for the dividends that will eventually come – but how can we continue to step back from corporate control and enterprise, and watch the rest of the planet and peoples expire through abusive greed.

The common man surely is not benefiting from investment, and certainly not the Sioux …. and we will all suffer most severely after these rotters have long gone and lived high. How can they look at their children and grandchildren and say “But WE lived large, by destroying your future?” How can any of us?

     And where WHERE is our government? What are their stances on this and the other pipelines that are being laid??

So I throw this down to you legislators:  STEP UP!!! Show your worth!!!!!

Gun Control, Political Agenda, Human and Disability Rights…….

To all of my FB, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram followers and friends:
Hereby unfriend, untweet, unpin and unchat me……if you want to sway
my opinions and convictions on:

A) Massive gun control for assault and automatic
weapons – I believe that they do kill people. Period.
Also, If you spend more time defending your
weaponry than you do defending and assisting the
daily rights and options for disabled, homeless and
poor – or fighting bigotry
………….Please unfriend me.

B) Women’s rights and Planned Parenthood: I believe
that women have the right to own their reproduction.
Period. I believe that the organizations that uphold
these hard earned rights and medical services should
be supported and upheld.

C) That political agendas should be unmasked
(on all sides) and only work for the benefit of all people – not the wealthy –
but for the average working American.  I also believe that there
will never be a true democracy without socialized medicine and
uniform drug and pharmaceutical regulations.

If it is your opinion that the thought of the day is more important than a friendship or a human’s well being – if you think that your “post” will sway ethical and moral convictions that have taken 60 years to develop………..absolutely, unfriend me.  I’ll survive…. guaranteed.  

Bummer…I’m being killed by chemicals.

Why is our FOOD being chemically altered by Monsanto?

Why is all of our cable & internet service being provided by Comcast and Time Warner?

Why is the broadcasting of the President’s addresses to the United States controlled by the broadcasting stations?

Everything we do, hear and PAY for is “offered” to us by the monopoly’s. We VOTE it in  !*!#

We are definitely ripe for “Soylent Green“….so let’s just lay down and wait….(while we complain on Facebook and Twitter and Pinterest and Instagram and…and….and)

On this day in 1974, labor activist Karen Silkwood died under mysterious circumstances.

1974

The younger generations may not know who she was or why she died – but this single incident sparked a Nationwide acknowledgment to Nuclear terror – hidden within the towns,
families and jobs in the “Good Old U.S. of A.”  

It was a time when: If the people, the press or news uncovered corruption/evil THEY spoke
and the people of the USA listened.

 
We had outlived the Hearst’s and our Nation was seeking truth and liberty. We were expanding our brains beyond what we’d been told and we sought to become enlightened people.
It wasn’t without risk, but it was courageous and true. 

TODAY evil/corruption is at home again and deeply nestled within all of the news –
and sound bites are everywhere.

It has escalated since the Karen’s and Watergate to where this nation is uninformed and held hostage to “entertainment” coverage for ratings, financial and political gains.

        

Nixon – Vietnam (Desert Storm, Iraq War, Afghanistan) – Enron –
OH MY!!

Information today is so polluted that I feel we will never
again be truly knowledgeable.

Fashion and Disabilities: Can there be “Marriage Equality” HERE??

Dignity by Design™ provides Independence to the disabled, elderly or veteran through clothing…Fabulous clothing…Accessible clothing…. Simple enough.

       .

     Dressing is an everyday human right that most able bodied people take for granted, and yet a solution has never been offered or recognized, to date, by the US or global economies. I find that astonishing.

DbD™ offers the solution to accessing clothing that is suited to disabilities. We take the guess work out of buying clothing that is suitable to wheelchairs, limb loss or prosthetics.  Dignity by Design is uniquely the only source available for the disabled or physically challenged that it is online, ergonomically correct, current fashion at a moderate price.

Clientele, caretakers and health care providers deeply understand the need for
independence and dignity for over 54 Million Americans living with disabilities – and
it’s ever growing.  This is a business in a box, market ready and possesses tremendous
social impact…..

However……………….             

I can’t continue to carry this banner alone.  I need investors and partners in manufacturing and business that will take the risk of “doing good”, being pioneers and building a company that will become the largest and most economically rewarding Fashion empire in recent history.
No brainer?? You tell me.

Dignity by Design is where Social Technology meets Fashion!

OPEN the Future History Books (or iPad 5000’s) to a retelling of what this generation stood for: What will we see??

While this is mostly true. We saw the years of 1929-33 and 1937-41 (Great Depression) leaving the the country – particularly the poor, middle class and farmers, in ruin.

Although Republicans are also screaming for military movement – they are undercutting and sabotaging the President with confusing rhetoric (surprise) of “ISIS” vs. “ISIL” (as if there is a significant difference) – but it strongly infers that Obama is “hiding” some secret/personal agenda.

I appreciate Sen. Sanders stance – he stands for unity – but it is a losing battle as Tea Partiers, Right Wingers, the Fox News enthusiasts and non-educated voters have their unearned badges pinned on their asses – not their hearts.

Recalling an age old story: There are two stranded in a desert and rather than share the last drops of water, the “possessor” kills his only companion, but during the struggle, pierces the vessel and the water melts into the sand…. then lies wondering, with his dying breath: Why??

We will stand united in the wealth, opportunity and strength
of this country – or we will die. And…..
the History books will show us as the egocentric, selfish cowards that we have become.  

Which elders do we turn to: Former Presidents and their Legacies

As I viewed this article from the NY Daily News (link below) – it occurred to me:

Historically, it is primarily (and naysay only) the former DFL Presidents that have become involved so furtively in World Peace initiatives, Global preservation and Human/Humane enlightenment. The Listing includes: Roosevelt (along with wife Eleanor), Truman (Hubert Humphrey VP), Carter, Clinton (Al Gore VP) to now President Obama.

I must encourage society at large to take note in how legacy is achieved — long after the “official” power of the Office has passed.
