The CDC must put limits on Dihydrogen Monoxide

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colourless, odorless chemical that is currently legal in our country.  While the CDC does not label DHMO as a dangerous chemical or carcinogen, it is often found in many toxic substances and is the leading constitute of many environmental hazards and biological diseases.

Ironically enough, these all have DHMO!

Today, DHMO has become one of the most abundant chemicals on our planet.  It can be found in many household cleaners, air-conditioners, cigarets, and other hazardous materials.  DHMO was even used and released into the ocean during the meltdown of the Fukishima Power plant in Japan last year.

So why is this important?  Well today, GIANT CORPORATIONS have begun to use DHMO in many of their products to lower their costs and increase their profits.  Even though it is known that DHMO is found in some of the most dangerous chemicals on Earth, it is still legal for big business to use it on us for their profits.  The use of DHMO has been so prevalent that our lakes and rivers are now been saturated with this chemical!

Other facts about DHMO:

• often used as an industrial  coolant 
• since the first nuclear power plant opened in America in 1959, DHMO has been increasingly been found in tumors
• a major component of pesticides and herbicides
• if taken on its own, it can improve the performance of athletes.
• was found in the nazi death camps during WWII
• is a major component of homemade bombs
• is often found in schools, and community parks
• found in shampoos and cough medicine

side effects include:

1. bloating
2. excessive sweating and urination
3. abnormal body temperature

 It is crucial that the public learns about DHMO and takes charge to tell our government we have had enough.  Giant corporations must not have the ability to use DHMO on us in order to increase the size of their wallets.  Call your representative and ask them to ban DHMO!

BREAKING NEWS - Good Bye OWS - Toronto

Dear Occupy Toronto, Fuck off! Love, Mayor Rob Ford

By: Colin Perkel

TORONTO - Allowing Occupy Toronto protesters to remain in a downtown park would amount to supporting anarchy, something Canadians have rejected, a judge ruled Monday in upholding the city's trespass bylaw.

There was no immediate word on when the demonstrators might be evicted or whether they would appeal the ruling.

But the city's mayor said he expected the protesters to get out of the park immediately.

"We've asked the protesters to leave as soon as possible," Mayor Rob Ford told a news conference.

"We'd appreciate their co-operation."

In a 54-page decision, Ontario Superior Court Justice David Brown upheld the city's trespass bylaw as a "reasonable" infringement on the demonstrators' freedom of expression.

"Anarchism has a long political history," Brown stated in his ruling. "But Canada has not chosen anarchism."

Some protesters in the park said they would defy any attempt to remove them, while others did not want to risk a confrontation with police.

Sakura Saunders, a volunteer with Occupy Toronto, said those who choose to stay will be "non-violently resisting" attempts to tear down their mini-village of tents and other shelters.

"That's simply us standing our ground," Saunders said.

"We do have charter rights to be here and it is the opinion of everyone here that our charter rights should ... be greater than the right of someone to walk their dog through this park."

Brown, however, disagreed.

"The tents and other shelters hog the park land, and non-protesters who seek to use the park face a chilly and somewhat intimidating reception," he said.

"The charter offers no justification for the protesters' act of appropriating to their own use — without asking their fellow citizens — a large portion of common public space for an indefinite period of time."

Members of the Occupy Toronto protest, who took over St. James Park in the city's downtown Oct. 15 as part of the global protest movement, went to court to block the trespass notice issued last Tuesday.

In its notice, the city said putting up tents or being in the park between midnight and 5 a.m. violated bylaws.

City Manager Joe Pennachetti said the city did not consider midnight to be a deadline for the protesters to be gone.

"We want to move quickly and hopefully beat that time frame," Pennachetti said.

Police said they were in discussions with the city, but would not speculate further.

Five protesters argued the occupation of the park, including tents, were an intrinsic part of their right to protest and hence their ability to assemble and express themselves.

Brown rejected the notion that the Occupy Toronto protesters were worthy of a special exemption.

"It would be a most curious constitutional exemption which would have the effect of excluding many members of the public from a park, while granting a small group exclusive possession of it," he wrote.

The judge, who heard a day of arguments on Friday, said the notice represented "minimal impairment" on the protesters' freedoms.

On agreement of the parties, Brown made no order as to costs given the "public importance" of the issues.

Across the continent, civic authorities have either evicted, or moved to evict, their Occupy protesters.

Most protest sites in Canada have already been dismantled but some remain.

A judge in Victoria has said the demonstrators have to go, but has not yet given the city the authority to evict them if they don't.

In Vancouver, a judge has given Occupy protesters until Monday afternoon to clear their camp in front of the downtown art gallery.

Montreal has taken no action against its downtown protesters.

Police have also cleaned out Manhattan's Zuccotti Park near Wall Street, where the Occupy movement began in mid-September.

While most of the protests have been peaceful, there have been violent clashes as police moved to evict the demonstrators in places such as Oakland, Calif., and mass arrests in New York City.

Why OWS Will Fail

This past week, the Occupy movement has been dealt a massive blow with the destruction of their settlement in New York and others cities throughout the nation.  While many supporters may try to spin these events  in a positive manner, the truth of the matter is that this movement is collapsing and  bound to fail for a number of reasons.

1. They are Exclusive

OWS protesters may reflect the public's displeasure with the status quo; however, their solution - or lack of solution -  fails to appeal an be inclusive to the nation's general population.  Also, many people who were once neutral towards the protesters now find them very confrontational and their patience has been tested.  People do not want to be lectured, but they are willing to enlightened.  Today's pompous protesters tend to speak down towards the general population in a manner that goes against their general beliefs.  

2. They are too Divided

Similarly to the general public, the OWS protesters are solely united by their dislike for the status quo;  however, they fail to share a common solution and are actually a very divided group.  While they all argue that the system is corrupt and there must be change, each group has their own agenda and they are competing amongst themselves to obtain the spotlight and propose their form of solution to the media.  We can see this division by their inability to define success. While the protests have been going on for over two months now, they have failed to propose any demands that they may consider a success because "success" to one division will be considered a failure to another.  Without a uniformed solution or demands from this group, they can not propose anything to the public, and very little can be done to help their cause.

3. They have no Leader

We may further see the grand divisions amongst the OWS movement due to their lack of leadership or idolatry.  Throughout history, every successful social movement has had a leader that organized the masses and kept them on track towards their goal.  These leaders always related to the general population and was able to convey the movements message to the people in a manner that was enlightening and forceful.  Without a leader, this movement has gone aimlessly and has failed to connect to the general population.

Should the group attempt to elect a leader, other issues will arise.  Due to their divisions, no leader will be able to successfully appease all these groups and thus forcing many of them to break off, weakening the movement. 

3. Too Many anti-American Entities

Finally, the last reason why i believe that the OWS protesters will ultimately fail is due to the huge number of anti-American entities in the movement.  If you want to have a successful movement in your country, you must show the general public that you love the nation and you are fighting for it.  While most protesters in this movement may love America, there is a large entity that is very anti-American and prefer to have the country and its economic system destroyed.  These people tend to argue that the problem of the nation is America, and America must be changed.
  

In order for a movement to get the population to support and follow their cause, they must relate to the people and speak to them at their level.  Where the civil rights and other movements succeeded was their ability to have Americans look at themselves and see how their actions or laws that were in place were unAmerican.  These movements made people reflect amongst themselves so that they may see that the problem with nation lies with them, and America is the solution.  This is the reason why these movements succeeded and why OWS will ultimately fail.

OWS Cartoon roundup

Read this: Ocuppiers Right, Wrong

BY LORRIE GOLDSTEIN ,

Recently I’ve been writing about some of the views I share with Occupy Wall Street protesters in New York, Toronto and elsewhere.

Today I’m going to write about my disagreements.

To review, I agree with them financial fraud on Wall St. and political corruption in Washington are largely responsible for the global economic mess we’re in today.

I agree the public justifiably feels betrayed by how stock markets were manipulated and banks and investment houses bailed out with U.S. taxpayers’ money.

I agree key regulations governing stock markets were gutted by Wall St., which bribed politicians into stacking the rules in their favour, a phenomenon known as crony capitalism.

I agree public anger at corrupt Wall St. executives and their bought-and-paid for politicians — Republicans and Democrats — is justified.

But I disagree with the Occupiers’ view capitalism itself is the problem and wealth redistribution by the state is the answer.

Wherever this has been tried, the state becomes the ultimate crony capitalist and it does to the public exactly what Wall St. and Congress did to them starting in 2008, only on steroids.

The solution is not to replace capitalism but to fix it — by restoring laws for the proper regulation of the financial services sector that arose out of the stock market crash of 1929.

Things like keeping the activities of commercial and investment banks separate, so commercial banks that accept depositors’ money can’t use it to speculate in high-risk securities in the stock market.

Things like placing limits on “leveraging,” meaning buying investments using debt, which can result in huge financial losses.

Things like regulating the use of derivatives such as collateralized debt obligations and credit default swaps.

These were the two weapons of mass destruction in the subprime mortgage securities scandal that wiped out trillions of dollars of people’s life savings and pensions world-wide, while costing tens of millions their jobs and homes.

But I disagree with the protesters who say they are against the bailout of Wall St. banks, but in favour of bailing out giant auto companies, which they’ve indicated by accepting the support of the Canadian Auto Workers.

That tells me these protesters aren’t really against the government picking economic winners and losers. They just want it to pick the winners and losers of which they approve.

I also disagree with the Occupiers’ failure to condemn the roles played by government entitlement programs and public sector greed in the ongoing global economic crisis.

Indeed, excessive entitlement programs and runaway public sector spending lie at the heart of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, that could cause another global recession.

The problem with countries like Greece — as in much of Europe — is their economies were already basket cases before the contagion of toxic subprime mortgage securities spread around the world and sent their finances over a cliff.

As former Wall St. money trader Michael Lewis, author of The Big Short, widely considered to be one of the best and most understandable accounts of the 2008 subprime mortgage securities scandal, explains in his latest book, Boomerang, Travels In The New Third World, the Greek economy was basically a giant Ponzi scheme before it imploded.

For example, the wage bill of Greece’s public sector has doubled in real terms in the past 12 years.

The average government job pays almost three times the salary of the average private sector one.

Greece’s state-owned railway has annual revenues of 100 million euros, against an annual wage bill of 400 million euros (average salary, 65,000 euros per worker), plus 300 million for other expenses.

Greece’s public school system, among the lowest ranked in Europe, has four times as many teachers per pupil as the highest ranked, in Finland.

The retirement age under Greece’s prohibitively expensive public pension system is as early as 55 for men and 50 for women for over 600 professions classified as “arduous,” including hairdressers, radio announcers, waiters and musicians.

Finally, bribery and corruption are widespread in the public sector.

To sum up, the Occupy movement is correct to condemn the greed, fraud and corruption on Wall St. that led to the global economic mess we’re in today.

But to ignore those same things in the public sector, and their contribution to the economic tsunami we’re now experiencing, is absurd and blatantly inconsistent.

The 53%: Occupy Wall Street backlash - Oct. 26, 2011

Occupy Wall Street at it's finest

Here are a few videos that show the vagabonds that can be found at these "liberating" protests

In this video, this young man is displeased and has joined the OWS protesters to show his frustration.  He argues that corporations in America are not paying enough taxes and that many of his social "rights", such as a government sponsored college education, are disappearing.  I love the way this young man obtained all his "stats" from online sources and claimed them as facts.  Also, I adore the way this young man is panhandling while wearing a burberry scarf.  Even if this scarf is a fake, his trendy t-shirt, well groomed hair and eye brows, and perfect teeth show that he himself is a superficial person who is more than willing to spend his own money on luxuries rather than necessities.  Having trouble paying for your education? how about you stop spending your money on teeth whitener and go to work rather than protesting on Tuesday Morning?  This moron definitely has a Mac and iPhone.

This guy must have really thought this through...Anyone who has a sense of intelligence knows that the worst thing you can ever do is to enter a financial institution while wearing a SKI MASK...I love the way they planed their "sit in" prior to their actions...morons.

I am pretty sure this guy was in Scream and She's all That!

Which brings me to my final point.  Just like most of the social movements that have risen from the left over the years, the recent rage has the same pro-communist, anti-semite message being spread.  Many communists and racists use the rage of the protesters to disguise their message amongst the many circulating.  Don't believe me...go see it for yourself....
