Geepers.

I have always had money issues-never enough, barely enough, but maybe this is an answer....

Millions Of Dollars In Fake $100 Bills Coming Into New York City
An international counterfeiting ring has been pumping millions of dollars in phony $100 bills into New York and other cities in the metropolitan area in the past several years, forcing the Secret Service to step up its operation to shut it down, sources told "On The Inside."

What group could possibly be behind this?? Read More

Pope Francis trashes the ‘prosperity gospel’: Pompous Christians are ugly pagans

Pope calls them ugly pagans, I call them phony xtians, but pretty sure we mean the same thing.

“It is an ugly thing,” he said, according to Vatican Radio, “when you see a Christian who doesn’t want to humble himself, who doesn’t want to serve, a Christian who struts about everywhere: it’s ugly, eh? That is not a Christian: that’s a pagan!”
He warned Christians against placing themselves above others and called on the faithful to be in solidarity with the poor.

One cannot help but marvel at the technology these days. We all have a Big Brother watching and listening to almost everything we do and say and buy. It's suppose to make us feel safer from those sneaky terrorists.

Well, it really fucking pisses me off. And now everyone knows I like to CUSS! Damn IT!

Which State Curses The Most?
More than you should, maybe. It can be rude, obnoxious, vulgar. But sometimes letting out a good “fuck” just feels so good. Swearing is cathartic. I truly believe cursing like a sailor helps people live longer. It’s definitely a pain reliever, at least.

And now, we know where the real swearers in America live, and the results might surprise you. As a New Yorker, I don’t feel out of place if I let out a $%@* expletive in public. But it turns out New York isn’t the state that curses the most.

There's a map that shows which states have the most swearers. Oh, there's also a map that show the states who have the most Polite People. Nh Was Big under both categories...Go Figure...OY!

The GOP and their xtian followers who put their God and beliefs above all else didn't even listen to their old President Bush-Leave No Child Behind missive!

Our kids are not smarter now! Like the GOP Trickle Down Riches philosophy failed so did their xtian education tips.

This is one of the best descriptions of a poor American woman's life I've ever read.
I related to this on so many levels, it scared me. I seldom considered myself poor, even though my monthly income of 1000.00 is proof, I always had most of the stuff every other American household had- refrigerator, tv, computer......

This Is Why Poor People's Bad Decisions Make Perfect Sense

It made Perfect Sense to me, especially when I was a single mom decades ago, but It makes me sad that not much has gotten better for the single moms these days.

Many of us on the left have noticed that the lines between Separation of Church and State have blurred, if not been erased, over the past decade or so.

Many congress reps spout biblical quotes daily on the floor of Congress, the ritual prayer to start the session and yet serve their Corporate masters above their citizens with their Moral Hypocrisy accepted by their followers.

It's Tiresome, Disturbing and Deliberate.

The Gospel of Selfishness in American Christianity
Without Christianity, the underlying mean-spiritedness of conservative policies is simply easier to spot. Without religion, you’re stuck making libertarian-style arguments that sound like things cackling movie villains would say, like Ayn Rand saying civilization should reject “the morality of altruism.” Since Christianity teaches altruism and generosity, it provides excellent cover for people who want to be selfish, a sheep’s clothing made of Jesus to cover up the child-starving wolf beneath. Since Christians are “supposed” to be good people, people who really aren’t good are lining up to borrow that reputation to advance their agenda.

DARPA- The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
The DARPA website is a very interesting place to stay on top of, aware and alerted of NEW (scary) things in the works for our 'Protection' 'Control' and who knows what other Whys.

What caught my eye-interest today is this:

Defense Department seeks to implant devices capable of stimulating depressed soldiers’ brains in real-time
The Pentagon’s cutting-edge research agency hopes to use electrical brain implants to treat a variety of mental conditions.
---
“Deep Brain Stimulation” devices already exists as a therapeutic tool for certain patients who are unresponsive to other therapies. Approximately 100,000 people worldwide currently live with DBS implants, which at this moment are only devices that deliver “electrical stimulation to reduce motor impairment,” but which DARPA believes can also be used to treat depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, Tourette’s, epilepsy, general anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.

I wonder what else that little implant could do?

It's just a matter of time, takes time, but some Justice is happening!
At least Better Friggin' Late than Never!
Because we seldom get real news anymore so many Major Concerns get forgotten, tossed under the bus, put on a back burner as we are distracted by shiny 15 carat diamond rings, rehab celebs, and bad weather...So when I see some Justice I have to note it somewhere.

JP Morgan was first, Now its Bank of America time!!!

Bank of America’s subprime lender Countrywide found guilty of mortgage fraud
The lending program was created by Countrywide, once a giant in subprime mortgages, prior to its 2008 acquisition by Bank of America.

The Justice Department alleged that Countrywide created the so-called “Hustle” program in 2007 as government-backed Freddie and Fannie were tightening their underwriting guidelines and loan purchase requirements in response to rising loan defaults.

Lordy, Lordy!!
Is this Pope for real???

Pope Francis describes ‘ideological Christians’ as a ‘serious illness’ within the Church

“And when a Christian becomes a disciple of the ideology, he has lost the faith: he is no longer a disciple of Jesus, he is a disciple of this attitude of thought… For this reason Jesus said to them: ‘You have taken away the key of knowledge.’ The knowledge of Jesus is transformed into an ideological and also moralistic knowledge, because these close the door with many requirements.”
