Police Turn to Secret Weapon: GPS Device
By: Webmaster Tags: DICTATORSHIP
LINK:: GO TO ORIGINAL ARTICLE
Across the country, police are using GPS devices to snare thieves, drug dealers, sexual predators and killers, often without a warrant or court order.
Webmaster's Commentary:
This is a sales job, people. They are selling you the "need" to use GPS tracking without warrants, and if you buy into it because they are using it on drug dealers and rapists then you will have no complaint when it becomes mandatory on ALL vehicles.

Companies Tap Pension Plans To Fund Executive Benefits
Tags: ECONOMY
At a time when scores of companies are freezing pensions for their workers, some are quietly converting their pension plans into resources to finance their executives' retirement benefits and pay.
In recent years, companies from Intel Corp. to CenturyTel Inc. collectively have moved hundreds of millions of dollars of obligations for executive benefits into rank-and-file pension plans. This lets companies capture tax breaks intended for pensions of regular workers and use them to pay for executives' supplemental benefits and compensation

America flew opium and heroin throughout the area. Many Gl's in Vietnam

Work of Evil: Beyond the Worst-Case Scenario in Somalia
Tags:AFRICA
American forces have bombed fleeing refugees, slaughtered innocent herdsmen and destroyed villages in attempts to assassinate a handful of individual alleged, on shaky and specious evidence, to be "part of" or "associated with" or "linked to" al Qaeda. American agents have seized refugees from the Somali war, including U.S. citizens, and had them "renditioned" to the notorious prisons of the Ethiopian dictatorship. And as we have noted here many times, the Bush Administration has sent in death squads to "kill anyone left alive" after American strikes.
Webmaster's Commentary:
Your tax dollars at work, folks. Doesn't it make you feel proud to be an American?!?

Citibank Had A Program To Take Money From Customers?
Tags: ECONOMY
I know others who have accidentally paid a bill twice, or simply overpaid a bill because they didn't have the exact amount of the bill handy and wasn't able to look up the specifics. In most cases, the companies in question would just credit the difference. However, it turns out that Citibank had a different idea. It apparently decided that if you overpaid a bill, you really were just donating free money to Citibank executives' bonus fund.
