Let's Use The Bark from Redwood Trees to Prevent Weeds instead of RoundUP! We use Bark in our garden and it works great. AND! It doesn't kill people...

 It's a One Time Cost for the Farmer and the Money is Kept within the State of California... Currently, a Giant Barge of Redwood Bark and wood chips Leaves Eureka, California Every Week headed for China... We also ship entire logs... They don't want the logs sawed up into boards because they have their own sawmills... and it's cheaper to employ Chinese Slaves to do the Work. 



Farmers have to pay for RoundUP every year and The Costs of all those Lawsuits MUST be passed on to the Farmers and the people that buy the Food. AND! We Eat That Poison! We could have healthier Food if we just used Redwood Bark and Wood Chips to Prevent Weeds.

AND...

For Some Bizarre Reason I See Advertisements 
on TV Trying to Sell RoundUP! 
AND AT THE SAME TIME...
I See Advertisements For Lawyers Who Offer to Help You SUE BAYER/Monsanto Because They Caused Your Cancer.

AND... 

tRUMP's EPA Has Legalized the Use of RoundUP!
a Classic Example of His Belief that Corporate Profits
are more Important Than Human LIFE!

Economic Update - Richard Wolff - Worker Owned Corporations

WORKER COOPERATIVES AND 
Worker Self Directed Enterprises...

1. How do coops of all types actually work in the real world? Don't they frequently fail because the workers are too inclined to put up with poor business practices?

2. How could a large company possibly work if all workers ran it together?


3. Has any research been done on the various ways in which the worker co-ops/ WSDEs can distribute surplus in different ways than the capitalist firms and change the wealth distribution of the society as a whole?

Rainbow Gathering Photographs Utah 2014

Main Circle, CALM Tent

Greg Vanderlaan in Heber City, Utah 

Often, there is a divide between performer and audience... 
It's better when the audience is the performer. 

Last Summer at the Rainbow Gathering I lead "The Band" in a Group Sing-Along Song... "You Are My Sunshine". I was playing the harmonica randomly and as so often happens... all of a sudden I was playing that song... There was a child that was attracting attention to herself by giving away flowers to the group and I guess that was the inspiration... about 20 people were sitting in the big shady spot in the main meadow and there were many guitars, drums, violin and a saxophone... we sang many songs... and now THAT song is mine... with a pleasant memory. What is funny is that I was unable to get "The Band" to play "This Land is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie even though I tried to get them to play along three times... on three different days...  

There was a momentary quiet at the Main Circle and I was playing a Big Bass Drum... Boom, Boom, Chick... Boom, Boom, Chick... and everyone ignored me... They could have played "We Will Rock You" byQueen but... Nothing... Go Figure...

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.

History of the Vietnam War. 58,000 Americans Died for Nothing... Something They Don't Teach in School Now... "Too Controversial" -

During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world. We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and Fallout Shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
