Well, our vice president is the former CEO of Haliburton which, by the way, hust relocated its headquarters to Dubai.
I am sick and tired of our national assets and rescources being exploited by big corporations in a suicide game of winner takes all. WE WILL PAY THE PRICE BUT WILL WE COUNT THE COST!!! Unfortunately, we only notice these things when a crisis is upon us. Well, the crisis IS upon us. Things will get worse before they get better. But it's up to you and me to change things. Vote! Be active! Speak out! Your voice does make a difference. WE have the power to create positive change. Let's create a shift toward a people centered culture. The suicide economy of today must end. We are the ones we've been waiting for.

Oh boy, here we go. Can't we just keep this to an awareness situation? I feel horrible for the Autistic rise and definitely feel it's largely due to immunizations. And I'm all for finding ways to improve life in America as well as everywhere else too. But I don't think it's fair to basically bash the US for not doing enough for people here or the rest of the world. It's like the US can't do anything right or wrong. If we stay out of Iraq, we hear of the oppression and weapons programs. If we go in, we're greedy for oil. Even though we still let Iraq have control of it's own resources and help them set up a free democratic society. It's like no matter what, there is this idea that America is basically greedy and evil. We can't do everything and we're still people. Most of which are doing what we think is best based on the information we have.
I guess my bottom line here is why is it always America's fault? What about China and their human rights? What about Iran and their defiance to the world community? What about the genocide in Darfur? Where is the responsibility of other governments to not oppress their people and keep them from economic growth? All of those things are on the US?
