Guilt is good. It's the feature that distinguishes the rest of the population from psychopaths. It's the sensation you are able to feel when you possess a capacity for empathy. But guilt inhibits consumption. So a global industry has developed to smother it with a 13-tog duvet of celebrities and cartoon characters and elevator music. It seeks to persuade us not to see and not to feel. It seems to work.
The 2012 Greendex survey found that people in poorer countries feel, on average, much guiltier about their impacts on the natural world than people in rich countries. The places in which people feel least guilt are, in this order, Germany, the United States, Australia and Britain, while the people of India, China, Mexico and Brazil have the greatest concerns. Our guilt, the survey reported, exists in inverse proportion to the amount of damage our consumption does. (theguardian.com)

This is exactly what it's title suggests, a rainy day fund for family members to fall back on when times are tough.
For example, our brother needed a brake job a few months back and his S&L was giving him shit and wanting to charge usury fees, etc, he could have taken a loan from this fund and told em all to feck off.
Collectively we could have lent him the money and it wouldn't be as much of a burden as say one of us lending the full amount. Then when when things are better, he could pay back the loan without worries or we could even forgive the loan if need be.
Keep it simple, honest and straight forward and it works. This is a collective insurance fund to keep all family members safe in times of need, NOT a get rich scheme or slush fund.
Micheal Collins Piper: "Someone please refute me on Israel killing JFK!" ” coverup
Kevin Barrett:
Commentary Magazine writer Michael Rubin is horrified that Press TV published my recent article exploring possible Israeli complicity in the JFK assassination.
He misleadingly blames "the Rouhani regime" for publishing my article,
which is sort of like blaming "the Obama regime" for something aired on
PBS, CNN, Fox, or C-Span, or published in the New York Times or Washington Post. (Actually, Press TV has a lot more freedom, at least in its international coverage, than any major American media outlet.)
Rubin says my article is "noxious hate" - but tellingly fails to explain
why it is wrong, or where the reader might go to find a refutation of
Michael Collins Piper's thesis that Israel was a major player in the JFK
assassination. (Read my response to Rubin.)
Now Michael Collins Piper himself joins me to discuss the thesis and its
critics...and to wonder why he get so many insults, yet so few attempts
to explain why he is wrong.
Today: Dr. Patrick Slattery filled in for Dr. Duke. He opened with a discussion of how knowing perfectly nice Jewish friends and acquaintances does NOT negate the facts that are frequently discussed on the show regarding the problem of Jewish domination of our society. Next, he reviews an article by the Israeli journalist Uri Avnery, which asked whether the American dog wags the Israeli tail or the Israeli tail wags the American dog. Dr. Slattery contends that this is the wrong question, countering that Jewish supremacists effectively control the American dog in the first place. Thus, any discord between the American establishment and the Israelis is simply a family dispute between two branches of Zionism with slightly different views of Jewish interests, and not a matter of American leaders standing up for American interests. Finally, he discusses the evidence that the late Palestinian President Yasser Arafat was assassinated by the Israelis using radioactive Polonium 210.
Philip Giraldi on Israel lobby madness; Phil Restino on VFP’s “impeach Obama” coverup
First half-hour: Former CIA officer Philip Giraldi recently pointed out that “The Lobby Is International”.
A few days later The (international) Lobby suffered a huge defeat as
the P5+1 powers reached a preliminary agreement on Iran’s nuclear energy
program. Is this the beginning of the end of Israel’s death grip on US
foreign policy? Or will The Lobby use its massive influence in Congress
to wreck peace with Iran…and once again trick the US into fighting a war
for Israel?
Philip Giraldi is a contributing editor to The American Conservative and executive director of the Council for the National Interest.
Second half hour: Phil Restino of Veterans for Peace
discusses the VFP leadership’s history of ignoring resolutions passed
by the members – including those calling for a new investigation of 9/11
and the impeachment of Obama for war crimes. Phil requests that you
contact the VFP national office and ask them to listen to the members
and support 9/11 truth and impeachment of Obama:

Denver, Colorado—one of the cities in the country to legalize marijuana use—has passed a new “odour ordinance” with a potential $2,000 fine for anyone found guilty of polluting the atmosphere with high concentrations of cannabis. And the police department’s plan for enforcement is a strange-looking device called an olfactometer, or more colloquially, the “Nasal Ranger.”

Tentacles of Israeli “security” firms stretch across U.S., globe.
Among them is NICE Systems, Ltd., an Israel-based company founded in 1986 by
seven “Israeli ex-army colleagues.” NICE’s current CEO is Zeevi Bregman,
who formerly helmed Comverse Technology, Inc., an Israeli-run private
telecommunications firm that provides wiretapping equipment to U.S. law
enforcement.
In 2001, Comverse was the subject of a Fox News investigation into Israeli spying,
where it was alleged “that the wiretap computer programs made by
Comverse have, in effect, a back door through which wiretaps themselves
can be intercepted by unauthorized parties. Adding to the suspicions is
the fact that in Israel, Comverse works closely with the Israeli
government, and under special programs, gets reimbursed for up to 50% of
its research and development costs.” ***Read article at American Free Press***
