Restoring democracy

dimanche 6 novembre 2016 à 01:00

One large progressive issue that Clinton really cares about is women's rights.

I support them too, but I think that fighting to restore democracy (which means ending plutocracy) is the most important issue of all. Don't forget that plutocracy is what has enabled the global heating denialists to push us more or less to the edge of the pit.

Hidden sources of political campaigning

The Grocery Manufacturers Association has been fined 18 million dollars for hiding the sources of its political campaigning.

Sentenced to pay $10,000 per downloaded song

dimanche 6 novembre 2016 à 01:00

Jammie Thomas-Rasset has been sentenced to pay almost $10,000 for each of the 24 songs she downloaded.

This is a victory for those bullies, the record factories.

The legally authorized disservices for downloading or streaming music are unjust, usually in several ways at once. (I absolutely refuse to use them, and I hope you do, too.) Even sales of CDs over the internet disrespect customer's rights, because they have to identify themselves.

Aside from sales of CDs in physical stores where you can pay cash, the only form of music distribution that doesn't do you an injustice is peer-to-peer.
