			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one piece of news  that caught may attention because it said so much that hasn&#8217;t been said. Time Magazine names Obama &#8220;Man of The Year&#8221;. Considering that Obama will not be sworn in until 2009 it is hard to understand what it is that he has done to qualify for &#8220;Man of The Year&#8221; other than win an election.</p>
<p>In light of the facts I wondered if it was a propaganda &#8220;play&#8221; to give the poor American &#8220;sucker&#8221; hope in a dismal situation or they (Time) really believed he was the best choice, in spite of the fact he had done nothing, but &#8220;talk&#8221; a great leader.</p>
<p>When I read the The Runners Up for MOTY it gave me a better clue as to what was going on. Henry Paulson, Tresurery Secretary and the man most responsible for letting the crooks bankrupt the country was Time&#8217;s SECOND CHOICE. I couldn&#8217;t believe that they could actually be so blind and deceived as to think they could make black white. Paulson, should be indicted for treason, stupidity,and or corruption.</p>
<p>It says more about Time than anything else. They are pumping out the propaganda to calm the naive masses while they and their friends suck the last dime out of the people&#8217;s pockets. They won&#8217;t get far with it, though.</p>
<p>Somebody said, &#8220;you get the government you deserve&#8221;. The Americans are among the most materialistic people on the planet. They invented and refined consumerism and have exported this cancerous greed around the world. Now they have proven it is a dead end street and they will suffer for their folly. The problems they have started are only beginning. Their solutions are not solutions they only delay the impact. But it is coming&#8230;.too bad they are going to take so many innocent by-standers with them.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Story: </strong><br />
The OECD and United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization agency published its report on food prices and world hunger prior to a World Summit on Food, June 3-5, in Rome.</p>
<p><strong>Report Findings:</strong><br />
- no relief in the high food prices in the next ten years<br />
- cost of food has doubled in the last 2 years</p>
<p><strong>Causes: </strong><br />
1. Biofuel use of grains<br />
2. Speculators<br />
3. Inflation<br />
4. Drought</p>
<p><strong>Effects:</strong> millions of people are being effected drastically &#8211; mostly in under developed countries. For example: 60 percent of income is used for food in Bangladesh, 27 percent in China, and just 10 percent in the United States or Germany</p>
<p><strong>Recommended Actions: </strong><br />
1. Urgent and immediate need for humanitarian aid,<br />
2. promote genetically modified seeds,<br />
3. more research on the benefits and problems of biofuels, because the US and Europe are planning large growth in biofuel production.</p>
<p>The world is a very complicated place, because we are all linked together through globalization. I have seen enough of the ill effects of world markets over the last 20 years to come conclusive down on the side of abolishing them. If you are thinking that these ideas are crazy I would challenge you to think outside the box for a moment. The question is why should we let large corporations determine how and what we will and won’t do. Globalization is their idea of giving themselves special priviledge. Goods and services move freely across borders but labor movement is heavily resticted. They move production to a country where they can exploit cheap labour then suite countrires tha try to put up trade barriers to the sale of their goods. They unemploy people and claim it is because they aren’t productive enough. They want the taxes and benefits playing field leveled which really means severe cuts to both. They have set up their own government agencies such as the WTO, and the Federal Reserve, and the World Bank. All of these agencies are being used to subject people and governments to the will of the corporate elite. Why any thinking person would support globalization is really a product of fear and manipulation.</p>
<p>You won’t even hear someone suggest in the mass media that we should reevaluate  globalization and NAFA and how other trading groups have negatively affected the people they were promoted as serving. Such thinking would be considered a threat to the control of the multi-national corporations what are close to running the world. The media is the main enablers of their agenda to control and plunder the masses.  The Marist expression that religion is the opiate of the people is completely wrong. The mass media is the opiate of the people. It is the single greatest factor in the control of the masses. It guarantees compliance and detracts the masses from demanding governments act in their interest.</p>
