GOP Goes Crazy Again... #SweaterGate --- Missouri Removes the Right to Bare Arms for Women in the Statehouse... Tank Tops a NO NO! --- Why Are Republicans REFUSING to Make America Great??? This LAW Does NOTHING for the People of the USA...

Missouri lawmakers on Wednesday adopted a new dress code for women in the state House, requiring them to cover their shoulders. The stricter dress code was part of a larger new rules package, and passed with a vote of 105-51. 
The dress code immediately drew criticism from local Missouri politicians, who took to Twitter to express their frustrations. The new dress code even has its own hashtag: #Sweatergate.
"I never thought my first national interview would be about what I can and cannot wear as a female lawmaker," said Democratic Missouri Representative Ashley Aune. 
Aune gave an impassioned statement against the bill on the House floor, asking her fellow lawmakers, "Do you know what it feels like to have a bunch of men in this room looking at your top, trying to decide whether it's appropriate or not?"

...for the Fourth of July...

The Good, the Bad & the Ugly of the Red, White & Blue...

I don’t wanna leave on a low note – and I don’t wanna pretend that you can give hope a vote...
coz it’s deeper than that.
So as you head out or stay in to celebrate or not celebrate this day –
whether you, like me, think we’d be better off without this capitalized shrink wrapped “land of the free” –
consider this. This is not a happy birthday –
no THIS day is a hollowed pride in a longstanding genocide
This nationalist high – made to conquer, divide –
glittering smoke screens that just barely hide –
the fact – that: America is not great.
And it never was.
for all, wasn’t meant to be – for all –
but for some.
So why should you, why should I,
put our hands over hearts –
and pledge allegiance to the legions still breaking the broken, old wounds aren’t closing –
why saddle your soul with the empire’s ode?
We’re owed – more.
And we owe – more.
We owe more to the early graves –
that were dug by our capitalist crusades –
we owe more to the fighters and builders –
who’ve been whitewashed from history –
we owe more to the kids coming up –
growing in smoke-filled air and poisoned soil –
we owe our toil –
to more than a flimsy facade – of freedom.
And we likewise – are owed more –
than a nation named, a constitution framed –
without us.
Yes, the idea of America is not great either.
And wait, just please pause
coz pontificating platitudes just feed agro attitudes –
the theorizing keeps us from realizing –
that we – can do better –
than a crusty old constitution,
a resolution of, for and by – white, land owning men –
6 percent -of the population back then –
and still today, it remains –
a pedestaled holy grail –
that we fail to see past
to the future of what we could be –
beyond the American dream.
Coz inside these walls of an empire dying, we can keep rising –
we can aim higher than just getting by and
we can steal hope –
from a hangman’s white rope –
we can build dignity in the halls of a capitalist divinity, we –
can move past –
the blame game and masturbatory shame –
The nihilistic, masochistic fuck it all –
no, FEEL with me.
Wrap your shame in red, white and blue –
set it on fire so the feel-good warm pyre –
can bring us together to fight – and to build.
Let’s make a sparkler out of our guilt
and burn it like rites of passage –
yes let’s now move past this –
we children of the empire are marked by our past
and the last thing we need –
is a solemn silence for all of those deeds…
a flag waving passive,
devoid of the passion –
of fighting – for liberation….
Liberates oneself.
Yeah, I WANT to be free –
and my will to freedom is tied right to yours –
bleeds over borders,
cue the requiem chorus –
for the empire’s creed.
It’s the only independence you should raise a glass to –
smashing the system in your mind,
and be free. Free to be – unAmerican.
A child of empire
that won’t sit on the sidelines but stands on the front lines –
with hope – and dignity.
A human humility –
a resolute – if not shaky – stability.
The solidarity – beyond a fake unity.
Not for america – but for people
and planet. Happy independence day.

The Founders of PBS Television: an American Miracle...

Hartford N. Gunn Jr. 

John Macy


James Day 



Sesame Street - an American Miracle
Sesame Street - an American Miracle


I'm Glad That I Made A Difference With My Life. At Work, I Helped People... So Many People Do Evil Because It Pays a Lot of Money... That's CRAZY!

I Thank My Parents For "Raising Me Right." We Are in Favor of Doing Good and Opposed to Doing Evil... 

For Seven Years I Worked at The Welfare Office in Eureka, California Helping Poor People Get Jobs, Food Stamps, Medi-Cal, Social Security Disability, and General Relief (Free Rent) ... We Also Had a "ONE WAY Bus Ride" Out of Humboldt County. Very Popular and Truly Useful... GTFO!

Many People Wind Up as Homeless People in Eureka... Some are Veterans Who Have PTSD... Some are Battered Wives... Some are Recently Paroled From Prison... and... Some are Kids Who Came Here to Work as Trimmers at the Marijuana Farms. That is Seasonal Work and When the Harvest is Over... They are all Laid Off and Are Broke, Homeless, Stoned, Confused and Hungry... We Feed 'em and Send them Right Back to YO MAMA's House... I Cannot Count How Many People I Have Helped... and they ALL were in Desperate Trouble... We Also Helped People Find a Room To Rent, Find a Doctor and FIND OUT WHERE THE FREE MEAL IS... There are Two... The Eureka Rescue Mission on 2nd Street at "C" and the Betty Chin Truck at the Corner of Koster and Washington Streets... (that's where the Welfare office is)

I Also Spent Six Years as a Clerk at Radio Shack... Helping People Solve Their Electronics Problems... Our Store Not Only Sold Products BUT WE ALSO GAVE FREE ADVICE. Many People Can't Figure Out How to Change the Time on their Digital Watches,,, and You Have to Do That Twice a Year for Daylight Savings Time... Many People Do Not Know How to Hook Up Their Cable TV... We Would Draw a Diagram and Collect all the Parts and Wires Needed... and Once a year I Sold about 65 Packages of Hearing Aid Batteries to a Man Who Flew them to Czechoslovakia... He Says Hearing Aid Batteries are Difficult to Buy there... 

My Life was NOT Always Doing Good... I DID Work for Six Years Making Electronic Equipment for the US Air Force... High Pay but Evil Work... Making Weapons... However, I Grasped The Concept of "Right Livelihood" and Switched to Designing Machines for the US Postal Service... Much More Fun to DO GOOD! We Also Designed Computers to Prevent Bank Robbers from Stealing Money using an ATM... and We Designed Computers that Remembered The Patients "Chart" for Doctors. That was a Big Deal in 1976... Now, ALL Doctors Store Patient's Information on a Computer... Useful!

Consider the Fact That There are People That Work at Dow Chemical, Monsanto or Dupont... Making Horrible Poisons and Causing Sickness... Harming People... All for Profit... Imagine Being the Guy Who Invented Agent Orange or Napalm... Or RoundUP... or Plastic... WOW... all that Stuff is Killing Life on Earth! On Their Deathbed They Can Look Back on a Life of Evil... Every Day Making the World a Worse Place To Live... Imagine Being the Guy that Invented the Gasoline Powered Leaf Blower... That's Basically an Expensive, Noisy, Polluting RAKE... A Total Disaster!

Another Example: There are People Who Work at Wall Street Doing Mergers and Acquisitions... They Do Hostile Takeovers of Actual Businesses, Lay Off Employees, Sell Equipment and Make a Huge Profit for themselves... 

A Classic Example of this is Charles Hurwitz of MAXXAM Corperation and Michael Milken, The Junk Bond King. They Bought The Pacific Lumber Company of Northern California. Vastly Increased The Logging of Old Growth Redwoods... Hid the Profits in Shell Companies, Stole the Employee Pension Fund and Then... When the Highly Profitable Trees Were All Cut Down... Hurwitz Declared bankruptcy and Went Back To Texas... Keeping The Money. 

The Employees Suffered, The Trees Died, The Ecology of the Forest was Damaged (mudslides) and Animals Were Harmed When their Homes (Trees) Were Clearcut. All Because ONE MAN Was Insane... and He's NOT DEAD YET! 


He was also Part of the Savings and Loan Crisis of the 1980s... Costing the American Taxpayer 1.6 Billion Dollars... and a Hostile Takeover of Kaiser Aluminum and It's Bankruptcy.

What Does a Hedge Fund Manager DO? Do They Create Goods? Jobs? Services? Anything? A Classic Example of a Parasite...

"Doing Evil for Money - a Novel" by Gregory Vanderlaan [another NSA Kiss and Tell Book]

Book Title Image - Doing Evil for Money - a Novel --- creepy eye on the back of the dollar bill - gvan42

Preface: I Have Had Personal Experience Working as a Defense Contractor Designing Equipment for the Air Force. By Accident I Got Laid off and the Next Job was for the United States Postal Service... Designing Machines for Sorting Mail and Vending Stamps... I Felt a Lot Happier DOING GOOD WITH MY LIFE instead of DOING EVIL. Making Weapons is Fundamentally Unsatisfying... What if My Stuff Actually Got Used? HOWEVER... It Was High Pay and so I Gladly Did Evil for Money... Most People Would... I Had a Wife and a Mortgage and was what was Called a Yuppie... Soon to Be Divorced and We Sold the House and That was Freeing... Believe it or Not, During the Late 1970s I Had DOUBTS About My Hippie Values... What IF We Were Wrong During the Sixties? 

and I Was a Stranger in a Strange Land. The Only Californian Living and Working in McLean, Virginia... Everyone Else I Knew Had No Doubt At All about Working for the Military Industrial Complex... They Were All "East Coast" People... Even that Math Wizard that Seemed to Have No Tasks at Work... He Had a Decorative Box on His Coffee Table at Home Filled With Marijuana... Even He Was Not Concerned With War and Peace...

Chapter Zero: A Continuation of "The Violet Overgrow: An Eco-Warrior's Journey" 


 Chapter Zero: 

"tRUMP's EPA=Enable Polluters Agency." Shouted Suzy into the Megaphone. "Let's Flip The Mission! Bring Back Protection of the Environment#FRANCE1789 #FRANCE1789
and Everybody Chanted Along... 
"#FRANCE1789... #FRANCE1789..."

They Were at a Protest March in Arcata, CA... Disrupting the Military Industrial Complex... 

Billy Replied: "Oh Susan, You Are Just Preaching to The Choir Here... All These Earth First! People ALREADY Agree With You... Let's Take Our Message to Washington DC and Speak Truth To Power! Let's Go To The Actual EPA and Raise a Ruckus!"

"The Time Has Come for the Violet Overgrow of the Government!" Shouted Suzy into the Megaphone.

"Will You Shut The F*CK UP?" said Billy "Don't You See That Short Haired Guy Wearing a Wig? He's an Obvious NARC! We Will Get More Done IF We are a Bit More Clandestine from Here on OUT. "

"OK... I'll Take a Break... I Won't Say a Thing..." Whispered Suzy into the Megaphone... With the Switch ON... and Everybody Heard Her...

Why Has tRUMP FAILED to Make America Great? - Remember the Dead When You Vote... #Purple64ets #PromisesMadePromisesBroken https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2020/07/why-has-trump-failed-to-make-america.html

tRUMP's "Booming" Economy = MORE UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE THAN EVER BEFORE IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE... https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2020/04/2trilliondollarloser-trumps-booming.html

Trump's "base" is the 1% [the super rich]. They pretend that his "base" is Uneducated White Men but that's a Misdirection. Like a magic act...
... they use misdirection to keep our attention focused on what they want us to see, not what they are really doing. Note that the Environmental Protection Agency has switched mission from Protecting the Environment to enabling corporations to increase profits by reducing expenditures for cleaning up pollution caused by their factories. https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2017/08/trumps-base-is-1-they-pretend-that-his.html

The TRUMP Effect: US SUICIDE RATE HIGHEST SINCE 1945. If Our Glorious Leader is Doing Such a "Wonderful" Job, Why are So Many People Killing Themselves?
Think About This... The Quality Of Life For 99% of Americans is a LOT Worse Now Than It Was When Obama Was President. https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/06/the-trump-effect-us-suicide-rate.html

Global Awakening is Real and Happening Now. All around the World People are Refusing to Believe the Corporate Brainwashing...

Much of what we see in the Media is Propaganda designed to make You and I Believe Whatever they are Selling... Be it a Presidential Candidate, a Drug, a Washing Machine, a Car, a Religion OR A WAR! https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2018/03/global-awakening-is-real-and-happening.html

Legalize Marijuana Nationwide, Tax It and Free All the Cannabis Prisoners

A Dramatic Savings of Government Spending CURRENTLY WASTED On Law Enforcement and Incarceration and a MASSIVE INCREASE IN VOLUNTARY TAXES! Everybody Wins! We Could Use the Extra Money to Pay for Education and Healthcare for All.

If you don’t smoke you wouldn’t pay a cent. It’s a Win-Win situation. More money going into the Treasury and Less going out.  In addition, states that have legal medical marijuana have fewer deaths due to opioid addiction. Some people simply choose the safer drug… DUH…

I Did a Scientific Experiment On How Drugs Effect My Skill Level Playing Chess.

Results: Coffee Made Me Play Better. Alcohol and Marijuana Made me Worse. LSD Made Me Reject the Entire Idea of Tests and I Refused to Play Games…

It was a Simple Test and You Could Recreate it Yourself for a “PEER REVIEW” – I owned a Chess Computer that Played at Different Skill Levels… I Took Those Drugs – I Played against the Machine and Determined What Level I Could Beat the Machine… and That’s Why… all these years later… the only drug I take is Coffee… and a Dozen “Doctor Drugs” That Don’t Seem to Do Anything but Don’t Seem to Do Any Harm Either… After All... “One Pill Makes You Larger, and One Pill Makes You Small… and The Ones That Mother Gives You Don’t Do Anything at All…” – Grace Slick
