 Living Under Fascism
A sermon on Fascism by a Unitarian minister in Austin, Texas
 
snip:  see whole text  http://austinuu.org/sermons/2004/2004-11-07-LivingUnderFascism.html
In early 1944, the New York Times asked Vice President Henry Wallace to, as Wallace noted, "write a piece answering the following questions: What is a fascist? How many fascists have we? How dangerous are they?"

Vice President Wallace's answer to those questions was published in The New York Times on April 9, 1944, at the height of the war against the Axis powers of Germany and Japan. See how much you think his statements apply to our society today.

"The really dangerous American fascist," Wallace wrote, "is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power."

In his strongest indictment of the tide of fascism he saw rising in America, Wallace added, "They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection." By these standards, a few of today's weapons for keeping the common people in eternal subjection include NAFTA, the World Trade Organization, union-busting, cutting worker benefits while increasing CEO pay, elimination of worker benefits, security and pensions, rapacious credit card interest, and outsourcing of jobs - not to mention the largest prison system in the world.

The Perfect Storm Our current descent into fascism came about through a kind of "Perfect Storm," a confluence of three unrelated but mutually supportive schools of thought.

1. The first stream of thought was the imperialistic dream of "The Project for the New American Century". I don't believe anyone can understand the past four years without reading "The Project for the New American Century", published in September 2000 and authored by many who have been prominent players in the Bush administrations, including Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz,Richard Perle and Donald Kagan to name only a few. This report saw the fall of Communism as a call for America to become the military rulers of the world, to establish a new worldwide empire. They spelled out the military enhancements we would need, then noted, sadly, that these wonderful plans would take a long time, unless there could be a catastrophic and catalyzing event like a new Pearl Harbor that would let the leaders turn America into a military and militarist country. There was no clear interest in religion in this report, and no clear concern with local economic policies.

Massive corporate wave of crime, fraud and abuse rolls on

Corporatism the predators literally gang warfare on the citizens
http://www.corporatepredators.org

Published on Sunday, November 21, 2004 by Common Dreams.org
The Peoples Business
by Ralph Nader
 

The massive corporate wave of crime, fraud and abuse rolls on, is undeterred by regular exposes in the business media itself. My favorite corporate crime journal (aka the Wall Street Journal) is a daily newspaper that never runs out of material.

Daily Journal headlines recently alerted readers to: (1) Lucent Faces Bribery Allegations,(2) Companies Sue Union Retirees to Cut Promised Health Benefits,(3) How Drugs Rebirth as Treatment for Cancer Fueled Price Rises,reporting one capsule for $29 compared to a price of seven cents in Brazil, (4) A Retired Maids Questions About her ATM Card Led Lawyer to Georgia Scandal,(5) At Cigna, Some Patients Found Conflict of Interest in System,(6) As Corporate Fines Grow, SEC Debates How Much Good They do.(7) From the Associated Press Calif. Insurance Chief Sues Four Insurance Giants in Kickback Probe.Also in the headlines are the pharmaceutical companies led by Mercks deadly fiasco with Vioxx.

In the midst of the daily revelations most of which produce no corrective behavior the Congress and state legislatures are paid to sleep through it all. Aside from a modest new law called Sarbanes/Oxley designed to deter some of the big accounting firm scandals, there is no corporate reform drive on Capitol Hill, and no demands for larger prosecution budgets for the Justice Department. During the recent political campaigns by the two major parties, there was no focus on a continuing pattern of corporate outlaws damaging the health and safety of the people and draining trillions of dollars from investors, worker pensions and 401Ks.

There is, however, activity among business lobbies, like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, to water down law enforcement, weaken the Sarbanes law, block the Securities and Exchange Commissions efforts to protect investors, and make it harder for the defrauded to have their full day in court. The political and legal systems are not just crumbling before these business lobbies; they are even failing to articulate a comprehensive law and orderphilosophy toward large multinational corporations playing one national jurisdiction off of another one across the globe. To demonstrate the untapped potential for prosecution, note that New York state attorney general Eliot Spitzer is accomplishing his moves against Wall Street with fewer than 85 attorneys in his corporate crime division. There are corporate law firms defending these culprits that each have over 1000 attorneys in their offices.

Inside the governments law enforcement agencies are officials and commissioners who can barely serve out their few years before accepting lucrative offers to join the other side. Even in office they concoct excuses for voting against significant corporate fines on the grounds that such penalties would punish shareholders and diminish the value of corporate shares. (SEC Commissioners Paul Atkins and Cynthia Glassman tried this absurdity recently).

All this, along with the corporate domination of our government, argues for a more comprehensive approach to controlling corporations and restoring democracy.These words comprise the subtitle of a new book called The Peoples Business the report of the Citizen Works Corporate Reform Commission.

Having founded Citizen Works, I am pleased to trumpet this endeavor written by Lee Drutman and Charlie Cray as a long overdue, timely and fundamental challenge to the judicial usurpation of our Constitution which have given these companies that are artificial entities and not human beings or voters almost all the rights possessed by real people. There can be no equal justice under the law between you and Pfizer or General Motors under such equivalence.

The steady and accelerating erosion of democracy by the corporate supremacists was not envisioned by the framers of our constitution. There is no mention of the Corporationin that founding document ratified well before the emergence of the modern corporation in the 19th century. The framers were far more worried about too much governmental power and could not foresee the many uses of that very power by corporations against the interests of we the people.

Even the owners of the large corporation the shareholders do not control their company. It is a highly autocratic structure controlled by the officers and their rubber stamp boards of directors. Making corporations into the servants of people, not their masters, is the challenge of The Peoples Business (Berrett-Koehler Publishers (1-800-929-2929).

The many-splendored ways that this work meets this challenge can open up a major public debate. An exciting public inquiry is needed by the workers, consumers, small taxpayers, voters and various communities of citizens who are now being driven backwards despite the overall conventional economic growth that has enriched the few against the well being of these people.

Her voice shook as she recounted reports of black voters being challenged by Republican lawyers at polling places, of minorities asked for two forms of identification when only one was needed, of polling places in precincts with large minority populations being moved to police stations, of hundreds of electronic voting malfunctions, and of polling stations lacking enough provisional ballots.

Please forward far and wide Thanks!

Urgent Action Needed to Support Ohio Election Investigations
December 06, 2004

Greetings!

We've been hearing a lot from the grassroots about the Ohio Election.  You
spoke and we listened.  We have been in Washington, D.C., communicating
this need to Congress.  John Conyers (D-MI) has now spearheaded an effort
to bring Congressional attention to the Ohio issues. As a result, there
will be an ad-hoc hearing of the House Minority Judiciary Committee this
Wednesday, December 8th, at 10 am. This hearing is devoted to examining the
voter irregularities and potential voter suppression in Ohio.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In response to our base's desire to act, and act quickly, we now have two
action alerts on the front page of our website.  Go there now, and you'll
find two alerts.  The first gives you the tools to urge your Representative
to attend the hearings this Wednesday.  The second alert is crafted so you
can communicate to your local media that you want to see more coverage of
what's going on in Ohio and other states with voter irregularities.  Click
here to take action:
