Biofuel: Growing our way out of the Petrochemical Pit
By Indi Riverflow
War, environmental crisis, economic disaster-all things evil seem to go in and come out of that gas tank. Nevertheless, as prices climb and reserves plummet, the vast majority of motored vehicles continue to run on the costly and divisive toxic goo, much to the delight and profit of the multinational corporations still serving it up.
Of course, the friendly oil companies are there for us, leading the charge for alternative fuels. Those lovable humanitarians at Chevron even have an active website “promoting” energy options that would, if adopted, wipe the firm to the dustbins of bankruptcy. This generosity is as stunning as it is unconvincing.

Remedy for Bureaucracy

The holistic health community is scrambling for autonomy, as pending FDA legislation proposes to regulate the nutritional supplement industry. This wide-sweeping measure likely will not fulfill the fears that alarmists project, but the attempt to hijack yet another basic liberty, under the banner of safety, highlights a trend that appropriates personal choices to medical review.
Smacking of globalism, the Trilateral Commission’s Codex is an ironic reversal of U.S. ideological imperialism: alternative remedies and health products could be redefined as restricted drugs, as part of an attempt to bring Uncle Sam in line with stricter guidelines across either border.
Substances with any physiological effect inside the body might be regarded as a “drug,” completing the absurdity which fails to distinguish between pharmaceutical products and the fruits of nature. Even water could theoretically fall under new strict regulations.

No Penalty for Early Withdrawal

The Congress of the United States has finally voted for troop withdrawal from Iraq, marking the first official recognition that the citizens of the U.S., as well as a majority of recently elected representatives, are ready and eager to end the illegal occupation of ancient Babylon by a more modern version.
Not always the opposite of Progress.
The Resident-in-Thief, predictably, has used his ill-gotten veto to flaunt the expressed will of the people, but a milestone has been passed for the peace movement. Reality has finally caught up with the imperialists, and by continuing the hostilities in defiance of the timeline, the Administration will be further exposed for a rogue regime operating in open violation of laws domestic and international.
