			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a fascinating film (video posted at bottom of page). The one problem I see, is they focus too much on conservatives being responsible for the controlled mass media.  Conservatives are defiantly not angels, but it was Bill Clinton who brought us <a title="NAFTA The hidden costs of free trade  By Adrian Boutureira November 5, 2007" href="http://www.sanders.senate.gov/news/record.cfm?id=286851" target="_blank">NAFTA</a>.  Hillary Clinton voted for the <a title="A complete list of who voted for the Patriot Act in both Congress and the Senate" href="http://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes.xpd?bill=h107-3162" target="_blank">Patriot Act</a>, the <a title="H. J. Res. 114 [107th]: Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002" href="http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=hj107-114" target="_blank">Iraq War</a>, and both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama voted for the <a title="Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama voted for H.R. 3199 [109th]: USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005" href="http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=s2006-29" target="_blank">Reauthorization of the Patriot Act</a>.</p>
<p>Diane Feinstein (Democrat) and Orren Hatch (Republican) worked together (and probably still are) to give the telecommunication companies retroactive immunity against lawsuits for warrantless wiretaps.  <a title="NPR did a story on immunity for telecommunication companies" href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16306942" target="_blank">NPR</a> did a story on this issue, but there was something I found odd.  I started hearing, &#8220;This program was sponsored by AT&amp;T&#8221; and then the coverage dropped off.</p>
<p>As they mention in the documentary <a title="German politician and Reich Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda in Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Goebbels" target="_blank">Joseph Goebbels</a> said &#8220;What you want in a media system&#8221; and he meant the Nazi media system &#8220;is ostensible diversity that conceals an actual uniformity.&#8221;</p>
<p>For a documentary that gives a more in depth and balanced perspective watch <a title="Century of the Self looks at the history of public relations and public manipulation" href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/century-of-self" target="_blank">The Century of Self </a></p>
<h3><em>Orwell Rolls in his Grave</em> provides the following information and then some:</h3>
<p>According to the nonpartisan congressional Budget Office: between 1979 and 1997, income for families in the middle rose 9% from $41,000 to $45,100, while income for families in the top 1% rose from $420,000 to $1,016,000 &#8212; a 140% increase.</p>
<p>Why has the response to a rise inequality been a drive to reduce taxes on the rich?  [That's a good question--see <a title="Jesus said " href="http://matthew191626.org" target="_blank">Matthew 19:16-26</a>]</p>
<p>A CNN/Gallop Poll conducted March 2003, found that 61% of the American people thought Saddam Hussein as personally responsible for the September 11th attack. Out of the 911 hijackers 15 of the 19 where from <strong>Saudi Arabia</strong>; the others were from <strong>Egypt</strong> and <strong>Kuwait</strong> [all us allies].  How did the American people get such a distorted view of who was behind the attack of 911?</p>
<p>Five months before the 2000 Election Governor Jeb Bush moved to purge 57,000 people from the voting rolls, supposedly ex-felons. Florida&#8217;s Secretary of State, Katherine Harris, was Bush&#8217;s campaign manager. The Governor is his brother.</p>
<p>CBS News killed the story on the basis of a denial by Governor Jeb Bush, who was the TARGET of the allegations.</p>
<blockquote><p>From George Orwell&#8217;s &#8220;Animal Farm&#8221;<br />
 &#8230; and the sheep bleated<br />
 &#8220;4 legs GOOD, 2 legs BAD.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230; and then they bleated<br />
 &#8220;4 legs GOOD, 2 legs BETTER.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Bush keeps rallying to get rid of &#8220;The Death Tax.&#8221; Bernie Sanders points out only 2% of the population is even rich enough to pay estate tax, yet the American people have been duped into thinking there is a death tax that&#8217;s plaguing people in the US.</p>
<p>Michael Powell (son of <a title="Colin Powell General 65th United States Secretary of State" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Powell" target="_blank">Colin Powell</a>) was head of the FCC. Michael Powell said free Air time for candidates is:</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8230; unconstitutional and an infringement on the broadcaster&#8217;s free speech rights&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;.. have no idea what the public interest is.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The oppressor here is regulation.&#8221;</p>
<p>You may have guessed Michael Powell got rid of equal air time for Presidential candidates, but who would tell you that?</p>

<p>Does this explain why the Obama Administration, just like the Bush Administration, will only allow preselected questions?</p>
<p>Helen Thomas had previously stated the Bush Administration started filtering all questions.  Only the questions the President&#8217;s staff wanted to answer were allowed through, and that allowed the replies to be prepared in advance.  The President would then only call on the people who&#8217;s questions he wanted to answer.</p>
<p>Helen Thomas being an unbiased reporter is expressing her outrage because the Obama Administration is carrying on this Bush policy like many others policies.</p>
<p>If you pay attention during Obama&#8217;s press conferences, you will notice Obama is doing exactly what Robert Gibbs is attempting to do, only in this case Helen Thomas and Chip Reid are calling out Robert Gibbs on manipulating the press.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the past I voiced my concern over the media blackout of coverage on H.R. 1955 and S. 1959 the Violent and Radicalized Homegrown Terrorist Prevention Act.  I showed the frighting relation between <a title="Naomi Wolf on the 10 tipping points to take down a democracy, one of which is cutting communications" href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/naomi-wolf" target="_blank">Naomi Wolf&#8217;s End of America</a> speech and the attempt to pass this bill.</p>
<p>One of the 10 tipping points Naomi Wolf mentions is being able to cut communications.  That&#8217;s just the kind of power the government is now aiming for with the Cybersecurity Act of 2009.</p>
<p>Once again the mainstream media including NPR have remained chillingly silent over this bill.  How can people fight against the passage of this bill, if they don&#8217;t know it exists.  Perhaps that is the point.</p>
<p>I would like to thank WordArc for a mention in relation to this bill: &#8220;<a title="In Naomi Wolf's 10 tipping points to take down a democracy, one part of the blueprint is the power to cut off communications between civilians" href="  http://www.wordarc.com/Alamir/2009/04/03/OBAMA_WOULD_BE_ABLE_TO_TURN_OFF_THE_INTERNET%3F" target="_blank">OBAMA WOULD BE ABLE TO TURN OFF THE INTERNET?</a>&#8220;</p>
<p><a title="The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 would, for example, give the President unfettered power to shut down Internet traffic in emergencies or disconnect any critical infrastructure system or network on national security grounds" href="http://www.cdt.org/headlines/1196" class="broken_link"  target="_blank">CDT.org: Cybersecurity Bill Proposes Unprecedented Government Power Over the Internet</a></p>
<blockquote><p><strong></strong>A cybersecurity bill introduced today in the Senate would give the federal government extraordinary power over private sector Internet services, applications and software. The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 would, for example, give the President unfettered power to shut down Internet traffic in emergencies or disconnect any critical infrastructure system or network on national security grounds. The bill would grant the Commerce Department the ability to override all privacy laws to access any information about Internet usage in connection with a new role in tracking cybersecurity threats. The bill, introduced by Sens. John Rockefeller and Olympia Snowe, would also give the government unprecedented control over computer software and Internet services, threatening innovation, freedom and privacy. CDT President and CEO Leslie Harris said, &#8220;The cybersecurity threat is real, but such a drastic federal intervention in private communications technology and networks could harm both security and privacy.&#8221; <span class="date">April 01, 2009</span></p>

<blockquote><p>The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 introduced in the Senate would allow the president to shut down private Internet networks. The legislation also calls for the government to have the authority to demand security data from private networks without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access.</p>

<p><a title="Critical infrastructure would be under government control during crisis" href="http://www.networkworld.com/news/2009/040209-obama-cybersecurity-bill.html?page=1" target="_blank">NetworkWorld.com: Bill would give Obama power to shut down Internet, networks during cyber attacks</a></p>
<blockquote><p class="first">Federal legislation introduced in the Senate this week would give President Obama the power to declare a <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/news/2008/101508-cybersecurity.html">cybersecurity</a> <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/36946">emergency</a> and then shut down both <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/25411">public</a> and private networks including Internet traffic coming to and from compromised systems.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://edge.networkworld.com/graphics/2009/0402%20Rockefeller%20cybersecurity%20bill.pdf">proposed legislation</a>, introduced April 1, also would give the President the power to “order the disconnection of any Federal government or United    States critical infrastructure information systems or networks in the interest of national security.”</p>

<p>Some critics of the bill say that phrase needs to be more clearly defined.</p>

<blockquote><p>Forthcoming legislation would wrest cybersecurity responsibilities from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and transfer them to the White House, a proposed move that likely will draw objections from industry groups and some conservatives.</p>
<p>CNET News has obtained a summary of a proposal from Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-W.V.) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) that would create an Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, part of the Executive Office of the President. That office would receive the power to disconnect, if it believes they&#8217;re at risk of a cyberattack, &#8220;critical&#8221; computer networks from the Internet.</p>

<p>Case in point, before Barack Obama attended a debate in Ohio, a member of his campaign called Michael Wilson, the Canadian Ambassador&#8217;s office, and told him &#8220;Obama will take some swings at NAFTA tonight, but don&#8217;t worry.  It&#8217;s just campaign rhetoric.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s kind of odd, NPR only covered this once, and then dropped it.  What I&#8217;m talking about is a story NPR ran on May 14th 2007.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/wp-admin/post-new.php" title=" Some former employees of the nation's leading subprime lender say the company encouraged them to conceal rate terms and make fake fixed-loan documents that pushed customers into loans they couldn't afford" target="_blank">Former Ameriquest Workers Tell of Deception</a></li>
</ul>
<p>This story covered how Ameriquest employers claim the company pushed them to sell fraudulent loans to people who couldn&#8217;t afford them.</p>
<p>Ameriquest workers went so far as to create fraudulent documents for the first couple of pages claiming people where getting a fixed rate loan, when the rest of the mortgage contract said the interest rate was a variable.</p>
<p>If this issue was  brought to light again, it could have a significant influence on the bailouts.  Instead of bailing out unscrupulous lenders, maybe the Fed should be telling these companies, &#8220;refinance the loans at the original rate where the people could afford their mortgage.&#8221;</p>
<p>Let the mortgage companies eat the loss, not the tax payers.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s interesting because in <a href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/orwell-rolls-in-his-grave" title="Orwell Rolls in His Grave examines corporate control over the mass media and how they manipulate public opinion" target="_blank">Orwell Rolls In His Grave</a> they assert there is a pattern of news agencies only covering a real story once and then dropping it, or not covering it at all.</p>

<ul><span style="color: #000000;">.</span></ul>
<p>Some interesting claims are made here that I&#8217;m currently investigating.  One of which is <a title="Google search on Flouride and Nazis" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=fluoride+nazi&amp;sourceid=navclient-ff&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS265US265" target="_blank">Nazis used Fluoride</a> in the drinking water at concentration camps.  This was supposed to have made prisoners easier to manage.</p>
<p>That might sound odd, but also take this into consideration.  Lithium is used to mellow out people with Bipolar Disorder.  Personally I once temporarily wiped out my short term memory by taking way too much magnesium.</p>
<p>Scientists have found Fluoride impairs cognitive function in both rats and humans.</p>
<p>Dr. Phyllis Mullenix is a pharmacologist and toxicologist by training.  <a title=" In the 1980s, Dr. Mullenix was Head of the Toxicology Department at the Forsyth Dental Center, a world renowned dental research institution affiliated with the Harvard Medical School. She was invited to start Forsyth's Toxicology Department because of her expertise in neurotoxicology" href="http://www.fluoridealert.org/pmullenix.htm" target="_blank">Dr. Mullenix&#8217;s fluoride research</a> found:</p>
<blockquote><p>Establishing a threshold dose for effects on the CNS, in rats or humans, was not the intent of this initial investigation. Yet, one fact relevant to human exposure emerged quite clear. When rats consumed 75-125 ppm and humans 5-10 ppm fluoride in their respective drinking waters, the result was equivalent ranges of plasma fluoride levels. This range is observed with some treatments for osteoporosis, and it is exceeded ten times over, one hour after children receive topical applications of some dental fluoride gels. Thus, <strong>humans are being exposed to levels of fluoride we know alters behavior in rats</strong>.</p>
<p>We concluded that the <strong>rat study flagged potential for motor dysfunction, IQ deficits and/or learning disabilities in humans</strong>. Confident as we were, the data were only one piece of the puzzle, the overall picture was still emerging. Soon thereafter we learned of two epidemiological studies (Fluoride, 1995-1996) from China showing <strong>IQ deficits in children over-exposed to fluoride</strong> via drinking water or soot from burning coal. A recent review (International Clinical Psychopharmacology, 1994) listed case reports of CNS effects in humans excessively exposed to fluoride, information that spans almost 60 years. <strong>A common theme appeared in the reported effects: impaired memory and concentration, <a title="Lethargic indifferent apathetic" href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lethargic" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ffffff;">lethargy</span></a>, headache, depression and confusion</strong>. The same theme was echoed in once classified reports about workers from the Manhatten Project. In all, our rat data seem to fit a consistent picture.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><a title="The following documents why our union, formerly National Federation of Federal Employees Local 2050 and since April 1998 Chapter 280 of the National Treasury Employees Union, took the stand it did opposing fluoridation of drinking water supplies" href="http://www.mindfully.org/Water/2005/Fluoridation-EPA-Moratorium19aug05.htm#1" target="_blank">Why EPA Headquarters&#8217; Union of Scientists Opposes Fluoridation</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>In 1995, Mullenix and co-workers \2 showed that rats given fluoride in drinking water at levels that give rise to plasma fluoride concentrations in the range seen in humans suffer neurotoxic effects that vary according to when the rats were given the fluoride &#8211; as adult animals, as young animals, or through the placenta before birth. Those <strong>exposed before birth were born hyperactive</strong> and remained so throughout their lives. Those <strong>exposed as young or adult animals displayed depressed activity</strong>. Then in 1998, Guan and co-workers \3 gave doses similar to those used by the Mullenix research group to try to understand the mechanism(s) underlying the effects seen by the Mullenix group. Guan&#8217;s group found that several key chemicals in the brain &#8211; those that form the membrane of brain cells &#8211; were substantially depleted in rats given fluoride, as compared to those who did not get fluoride.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>CODEX Alimentarius is a campaign to force global nutrition standards on the population of the world, that do not serve our best interest of the average person.</p>
<p>An example is not allowing the recommendation of taking any more than 400 IUs of vitamin D per day.  Why is that a big deal?  It has been proven <a title="People who take 1000 IU or more of vitamin D per are 50% less likely to develop Multiple Sclerosis" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=multiple+sclerosis+%22vitamin+d%22+study&amp;sourceid=navclient-ff&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS265US265" target="_blank">people who take 1000 IU or more of vitamin D per day are 50% less likely to develop Multiple Sclerosis</a>.  The pharmaceutical medications that are recommended for Multiple Sclerosis costs <a title="Cost of Drugs for Multiple Sclerosis" href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/68108.php" target="_blank">$1500 to $2500</a> per month&#8211;need I say more.</p>
<p>To order a copy of this film see <a title="Health Freedom USA is a group fighting against CODEX Alimentarius" href="http://www.healthfreedomusa.org" target="_blank">www.healthfreedomusa.org</a>.  No I do not receive a commission if you order this film.  To read more about CODEX Alimentarius go to <a title="Codex Alimentarius was founded in 1962 by the UN to establish international free trade foods It is jointly administered by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) through annual and regional meetings" href="http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php" target="_blank">www.healthfreedomusa.org</a> and click on the Codex Crash Course on the left hand side of the page.</p>
<p>So why is this film under the NPR section?  Check out who <a title="Rima E. Laibow, M.D. is the Medical Director of the Natural Solutions Foundation and a graduate of Albert Einstein College of Medicine (1970)" href="http://www.healthfreedomusa.org/index.php?page_id=300" target="_blank">Rima E. Laibow, MD</a> states are be big multinational corporations pushing this agenda.  Then look at who some of the main sponsors of <a title="Sponsors of Public Radio International" href="http://www.theworld.org/?q=node/76" target="_blank">Public Radio International</a> are.</p>
<p>They don&#8217;t list ADM on the page, but I have heard them mention ADM as a sponsor on numerous occasions.  Just pay attention to who their sponsors are if you listen to their programs.  Try Googling ADM and NPR.</p>
<p>List of companies mentioned in this video:</p>
<ul>
<li>Pfizer</li>
<li>Merck</li>
<li>Monsanto</li>
<li>Bayer</li>
<li>BASF</li>
<li>ADM</li>
<li>Chemit</li>
<li>Eastman Chemical</li>
<li>Glaxo Smith Kline</li>
</ul>
<p>People in the EU are also trying to <a title="EU fight against CODEX" href="http://www.masternewmedia.org/news/2006/05/01/go_find_the_truth_and.htm" target="_blank">fight against CODEX</a> <a title="CODEX Alimentarius in the EU" rel="attachment wp-att-60" href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/codex-alimentarius/codex-alimentarius-in-the-eu/" target="_blank"><img src="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/index.php?feedimage=wp-content/uploads/counter_codex_campaign_350.thumbnail.gif" alt="CODEX Alimentarius in the EU" /></a></p>
<p>One suggestion I would make: instead of trying to rewrite CODEX, the US needs to get out of The UN, and the WTO all together.</p>

<p>Dennis Kucinich wouldn&#8217;t vote on a bill like FISA, but NPR would not cover this man.  About the only thing they would ever cover is that he admitted to seeing a flyer rectangular object in the sky and he didn&#8217;t know what it was.  They helped perpetuate the smear that Kucinich sees UFOs</p>

If you read blog posts, you&#8217;ve probably got the impression many people don&#8217;t trust Fox News.  Robert Greenwald with Brave New Films even did a film called <a title="Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a " href="http://www.outfoxed.org" target="_blank"><em>Out Foxed</em></a>.</p>
<p>Do people have a false sense of fair reporting from NPR?   Next to NPR&#8217;s failure to cover the anti War Protests of <a title="On 10-27-2007 thousands of people in 11 cities across the US protested the Iraq war but this was not covered by NPR" href="http://oct27.org" target="_blank">October 27th 2007</a>, I find this the most telling piece of news coverage NPR has ever done.</p>
<p>On October 22 NPR broadcast a misleading story by Mara Liasson: <a title="NPR coverage of the October 21 2007 GOP debate excluded Ron Paul" href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15503725" target="_blank"><em>GOP Candidates Take Aim at Each Other</em></a> (note there&#8217;s link on their page to listen to the broadcast).</p>
<p>If I hadn&#8217;t actually watched the debate, I would have thought nothing of it.  But having actually watched the debate, I was left in total shock after I listened to the NPR report.</p>
<p>Was the radio station I once trusted and donated money to skewing news coverage beyond belief?</p>
<p>Listen to the NPR program  <a title="NPR coverage of the October 21 2007 GOP debate excluded Ron Paul" href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15503725" target="_blank"><em>GOP Candidates Take Aim at Each Other</em></a> (it&#8217;s only 4 minutes long), and then watch these news clips.</p>

<p>Mara Liasson managed to get the name Hillary Clinton in every sound bite.  She never mentions Ron Paul&#8217;s name once.  I have heard some people say this is a liberal bias.  I argue NPR would be covering <a title="Dennis Kucinich the Presidential candidate who wanted to end the Iraq War and Impeach Bush and Cheney" href="http://kucinich.us" target="_blank">Dennis Kucinich</a> if they actually had a liberal bias and wanted to support true liberals.  As of date of this post, if you do a Google search on NPR for &#8220;dennis kucinich site:npr.org&#8221; you get just over 500 hits.  If you do a Google search for &#8220;hillary clinton site:npr.org&#8221; you get nearly 2000 hits;  &#8220;barack obama site:npr.org&#8221; well over 2000.  Mara Liasson also <a title="Mara Liasson is a contributer to Fox News" href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,2124,00.html" target="_blank">contributes to Fox News</a>.</p>
<p>If anyone has watched <a title="Orwell Rolls in his Grave is a documentary of corporate control over the mass media" href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/orwell-rolls-in-his-grave" target="_blank"><em>Orwell Rolls in his Grave</em></a>, they know Michael Powell (Colin Powell&#8217;s son) got rid of equal access laws for political candidates when he was head of the FCC.  As a publicly funded radio program we need neutrality from NPR to counteract this problem.  We don&#8217;t appear to be getting it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NPR pointed out on the February 26th 2008 debate that Hillary Clinton said Barack Obama&#8217;s health care plan looks like it was written by health insurance companies.  There&#8217;s additional information on this NPR could have provided.</p>
<p>Has anyone ever seen the movie Sicko?  Requiring everyone in American to buy a health insurance policy is just what health insurance companies want&#8211;even if the government has to pay for it.  It strikes me as odd  people don&#8217;t see this is just like the Medicare bill pushed through by Billy Tozan.  That&#8217;s what Hillary Clinton wants to do and what Mitt Romney did Massachusetts.  Michael Moore has posted the  <a href="http://www.michaelmoore.com/sicko/sickos-for-sale/candidates" title="Michael Moore tracks how much money Presidential Candidates Contributions from the Health Industry - 2008 Election Cycle HMOs, pharmaceutical companies, physicians and other health professionals" target="_blank">health lobby campaign contribution</a> info on his web site.  Clinton was top and Romney was second last time I checked, but it looks like Barack Obama has moved up to second place.</p>
<p>If you agreed with what Michael Moore had to say about health care, you would have wanted to read up on <a href="http://www.dennis4president.com/go/issues" class="broken_link"  title="Dennis Kucinich wanted to implement Michael Moore's health care proposals" target="_blank">Dennis Kucinich</a>, but you would never find out about his plan&#8217;s or policies from NPR.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s what really determines how electable a candidate is&#8211;whether or not the media tells you a candidate is electable.   Does the media choose to give that candidate any coverage.  If you watch <a href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/orwell-rolls-in-his-grave" title="Orwell rolls in his Grave takes a look at corporate ownership of the mainstream media" target="_blank"><em>Orwell Rolls in His Grave</em></a>, you find out there is no longer a legal obligation to give candidates equal air time.</p>
<p>NPR mentioned people are concerned about <a href="http://www.sanders.senate.gov/news/record.cfm?id=286851" title="The hidden costs of free trade (Boston Globe, Op-Ed)  -- 11/06/2007  By Adrian Boutureira November 5, 2007" target="_blank">NAFTA</a>, (a law passed by the Clinton&#8217;s) but they never mention why:</p>
<blockquote><p>We have already seen the devastating effects of the North American Free Trade Agreement in Massachusetts. According to conservative estimates, more than 100,000 manufacturing jobs have been lost in the last decade alone. Nationally, at least 3 million jobs have been sent offshore, and the wage gap continues to expand.<br />
more stories like this</p>
<p>Our trading partners have suffered, too &#8211; with huge increases in inequality and massive displacement. For example, at least 1.3 million Mexican farmers have lost their livelihood under NAFTA. As a result, the number of annual immigrants from Mexico to the United States surged from 332,000 in 1993, the year before NAFTA went into effect, to 530,000 in 2000 &#8211; a 60 percent increase.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>NPR didn&#8217;t mention the war in Iraq, but here&#8217;s an interesting bit of information NPR never mentions.  Hillary Clinton has received more money from the <a href="http://www.alternet.org/story/65869/" title="Weapons Industry Dumps Republicans, Backs Hillary" target="_blank">Weapons Industry</a> than any other Presidential candidate, and that includes Republicans.</p>
<p>For Republicans Ron Paul has received the most money in campaign contributions from people enlisted in the military.  For Democrats Barack Obama has received the most campaign contributions from people enlisted in the military.   You can <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=ron+paul+barack+obama+contributions+enlisted&amp;sourceid=navclient-ff&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS230US231&amp;aq=t" title="Google Military support for Barack Obama and Ron Paul who are anti war Presidential Candidates" target="_blank">Google</a> this and find article after article.   Here&#8217;s an article that was published in the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/09/14/war-critics-obama-ron-pa_n_64417.html" title="Ron Paul and Barack Obama have received the most campaign contributions from people enlisted in the  military" target="_blank">Huffington Post</a></p>
