Health industry circle of profiteering — --https://publicintegrity.org/federal-politics/charitable-contributions/?utm_source=Watchdog&utm_campaign=935ed1b413-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_09_13_06_22&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ffd1d0160d-935ed1b413-100262981&mc_cid=935ed1b413&mc_eid=cf47518628

PACs that raise small-dollar donations — and spend mostly on themselves — are proliferating — end of publicintegrity info — -

Is it possible we are seeing the circle of profiteering? — -

*Deregulate to permit unsafe environment

*Permit through legislation corruption in elections to pass laws to enforce against people

*Support a medical industry that is also unregulated

*Raise prices of health insurance rates that may or may not pay for treatment when the natural good health of people are mitigated

*Prey on the conscience of the public to contribute funds to “stop disease” via research

Indoctrination of the public into compliance to capitalistic hierarchical Establishment may mitigate participation of the public in a Climate Crisis Strike. The very system that supports catastrophe from environmental devastation, is in a position to dictate to employees, how, when, and why the employee speaks out. Other indications of servitude by the public to big-money interests abound.

https://www.democracynow.org/2019/9/13/headlines/new_york_schools_wont_penalize_students_who_join_climate_strike----Another reason I love NYS is that some of the politicians/bureaucrats aren’t intimidated by Free Speech. (excepting some who have threatened labeling as domestic terrorists, public-safety advocates who utter the word “bomb truck”)

https://www.wind-watch.org/news/2019/08/15/broome-residents-wind-moratorium-on-calpine-proposal/---Curiously closed to local news interviewers, the concern about insinuating industrialization before comments from local-community members in NYS has long been a problem.

Sheepishness of politicians along with compliance to loyalty to branch D or branch R of the Capitalist Party R&D undermine our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic. As the D branch calls out the R branch about sycophantic loyalty to Trump, the D branch is reticent to impeach a President who appears to misunderstand his position as he occupies the Office of The Presidency that belongs to We The People — — https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2019/03/impeachment-trump/580468/----Instead, he has mounted a concerted challenge to the separation of powers, to the rule of law, and to the civil liberties enshrined in our founding documents. He has purposefully inflamed America’s divisions. He has set himself against the American idea, the principle that all of us — of every race, gender, and creed — are created equal.

This is not a partisan judgment. Many of the president’s fiercest critics have emerged from within his own party. — -end of theatlantic info — -

A unique new problem has arisen in the authority inflicted against We The People by political Parties that have no standing under the US Constitution.

The illegitimate Supreme Court decision that decided favorably for Citizens United, legalized corruption in elections, adding to the fraud of free, fair, and clean elections in America. Especially interesting to Bernie Sanders voters of 2016, who were disenfranchised and censored by the DNC, while DNC members blamed Sanders supporters for Trump, we watch DNC Establishment supporting Joe Biden who is expressing deeply conflicted statements about racism and the economy, as he takes big-money interest contributions. The outrage is, if Trump again wins the election, the Bernie Sanders and/or Howie Hawkins supporters will again need to absorb the ire of the incoherent DNC Establishment politicians.

C-Span offered a discussion this morning on the topic of health care — -https://www.c-span.org/video/?464204-5/washington-journal-dr-marty-makary-discusses-rising-health-care-costs----Dr. Marty Makary was the guest, and presented in views as attempting to right the wrongs of predatory practices by the medical industry as indicative of stifling of free market principles — —

9:39AM — paraphrase — -guest — -Let’s give markets a chance. Price gouging is due to billing after the fact. (In what universe can a sick patient practice free-market principles from so-called care givers? Billing after the fact is atrocious, but in the middle of a health crisis, pre-discussion of negotiating price would be irrelevant anyway. The guest’s statement is a pure red herring)

9:45AM — paraphrase — -guest — -Consumers need to price shop. (No they don’t; fraudulent medical industry practices should be criminally addressed)

9:50AM — paraphrase — -guest — -Again Dr. Marty insists on giving free market a chance at the same time he says, “consumers are getting hammered”. (After expressing the fact of consumer hammering several times, one must suggest that when you are a hammer, everything is a nail)

This is not a free market. A free market presupposes transparency of information and the ability of buyer and seller to have access to and be capable of understanding matters at hand. This is a reason so-called professions exact a higher level of presumed respect by the public, due to their presumed ethical superiority. This would include politicians, the medical industry, and lawyers, to name a few. When characters occupy these positions who are in fact hucksters, and competition becomes more crucial than practice, we have predatory capitalism.

A benefit of age is to remember pre-fraudulent presumption within professions. Predatory capitalism has resulted after decades of Supreme Court decisions that have destroyed any concept of free markets in favor of predatory practice. To name a few — —

*https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/72/bates-v-state-bar-of-arizona---The Arizona bar offered numerous justifications for the ban on attorney advertising. Among others, attorney ads would have an “adverse effect on professionalism,” would be “inherently misleading,” would negatively affect the “administration of justice,” would have “undesirable economic effects,” would harm the quality of legal services, and would be difficult to police. — end of mtsu info — -

*Legitimate is the question as to advertising, competition, and predatory behavior when so-called professionals have information and consumers do not, inherently.

*https://freespeechforpeople.org/model-corporate-charter-revocation-act/----------http://reclaimdemocracy.org/corporate-accountability-history-corporations-us/

Initially, the privilege of incorporation was granted selectively to enable activities that benefited the public, such as construction of roads or canals. Enabling shareholders to profit was seen as a means to that end. The states also imposed conditions (some of which remain on the books, though unused) like these*:

Corporate charters (licenses to exist) were granted for a limited time and could be revoked promptly for violating laws.

Corporations could engage only in activities necessary to fulfill their chartered purpose.

Corporations could not own stock in other corporations nor own any property that was not essential to fulfilling their chartered purpose.

Corporations were often terminated if they exceeded their authority or caused public harm.

Owners and managers were responsible for criminal acts committed on the job.

Corporations could not make any political or charitable contributions nor spend money to influence law-making.

For 100 years after the American Revolution, legislators maintained tight controll of the corporate chartering process. Because of widespread public opposition, early legislators granted very few corporate charters, and only after debate. Citizens governed corporations by……

One of the most severe blows to citizen authority arose out of the 1886 Supreme Court case of Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad. Though the court did not make a ruling on the question of “corporate personhood,” thanks to misleading notes of a clerk, the decision subsequently was used as precedent to hold that a corporation was a “natural person.” This story was detailed in “The Theft of Human Rights,” a chapter in Thom Hartmann’s recommended book Unequal Protection.

From that point on, the 14th Amendment, enacted to protect rights of freed slaves, was used routinely to grant corporations constitutional “personhood.” Justices have since struck down hundreds of local, state and federal laws enacted to protect people from corporate harm based on this illegitimate premise. Armed with these “rights,” corporations increased control over resources, jobs, commerce, politicians, even judges and the law. — — end of reclaimdemocracy info —

Principles in the Preamble have been under capitalistic Establishment attack over decades and centuries — -We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

— -end of preamble — -

We The People have been indoctrinated into capitalistic hierarchical Establishment while the Supreme Court has slowly eroded human, environmental, and civil rights to promote commercial interests. This is a fact that needn’t stand.

*https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass%E2%80%93Steagall_legislation--A benefit of age is to recall a time when financial institutions had rules by which to do business. Having worked in the industry before the Bill Clinton/Ronald Reagan years gives background to recall the possibility of a free market, devoid of presumed predatory privilege by capitalistic Establishment, the change to predatory behavior was obvious.

*https://www.thebalance.com/glass-steagall-act-definition-purpose-and-repeal-3305850---On November 12, 1999, President Clinton signed the Financial Services Modernization Act that repealed Glass-Steagall. Congress had passed the so-called Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act along party lines, led by a Republican vote in the Senate.

The repeal of Glass-Steagall consolidated investment and retail banks through financial holding companies. The Federal Reserve supervised the new entities. For that reason, few banks took advantage of the Glass-Steagall repeal. Most Wall Street banks did not want the additional supervision and capital requirements.

Those that did became too big to fail. This required their bailout in 2008–2009 to avoid another depression. — -end of theblance info — -

Free markets pertaining to corporations in America must be weighed against the inability of Revocation of Corporations that was the intention of the Founders, who fought that system during The Revolutionary War.

After signing the order, a beaming Trump pronounced “total victory” over the weather, which he called “the enemy of the people.”

“I have been treated very unfairly by the weather,” Trump said. “The weather is a horrible person.”

On Fox News, Sean Hannity praised Trump’s decision to seize control of the weather and compared it favorably to former President Barack Obama’s weather policy, which he called “a trainwreck.”

“Obama just let the weather run wild,” Hannity said. — -end of portside info — -

If again disenfranchised of rights to clean, fair, and free elections for Sanders voters, one may confidently consider Green Party Presidential candidate Howie Hawkins — --https://www.gp.org/green_new_deal----

We are grassroots activists, environmentalists, advocates for social justice, nonviolent resisters and regular citizens who’ve had enough of corporate-dominated politics. Government must be part of the solution, but when it’s controlled by the 1%, it’s part of the problem. The longer we wait for change, the harder it gets. Don’t stay home on election day. Vote Green. — -end of gp info — -

**************************************************************************************************************************************************

Some voters in the US were disenfranchised due to Capitalist Party D&R election rigging that is controlled by political Parties. The Capitalist Party R&D, have as their objective, putting in place rules that ensure the candidate choice of a particular Establishment Party is put into office, even against the wishes of the voters.

Please remember political Parties have no standing under the US Constitution, but voters do have standing under the US Constitution. Due to disenfranchisement of 3rd-Party candidates, Bernie Sanders who is an Independent, chooses to run as a Democrat for President. If a voter is a member of a 3rd-Party, and wishes to vote for 3rd-Party politician Bernie Sanders, in the Democratic Primary, that voter may be disenfranchised of his/her Constitutional right of a free and fair election, as happened to a large number of voters in NYS in 2016.

One suspects these disenfranchised voters who may have felt defrauded of their right to vote in the 2016 Democratic Primary, voted for Trump in the 2016 general election. One believes this will happen again, because needless to say, the Capitalist Party R&D prefer chaos in the election system, which is a control mechanism for political Parties with no standing under the US Constitution, while the voters do have standing under the US Constitution. This is an interesting red-herring to wield a control that is not Constitutional.

*****Each state is different as to their voter registration guidelines. Anyone wishing to vote for Bernie Sanders for President in the Democratic Primary, should check to be sure they will not be disenfranchised at the polls, once again in 2020, as in 2016. A voter can easily switch between political Parties, rather than functioning as a captive Party loyalist, to a political Party that is not loyal to the voter. *****

Or one can be registered to vote, without being affiliated to a particular political Party. Please remember, the US Constitution supports free and fair elections for voters, but is blissfully unconcerned about political Parties. That some Americans believe “we are a 2-Party system”, is nothing but propaganda.

*****Be sure to check with your state to register to vote in the Primary according to your wish and by exercising your US Constitutional right to vote.*****

*****One may also advocate for ranked-choice voting, that will expand choices for voters, and provide a greater possibility of free and fair elections.*****
