“Following wins for marijuana legalization in Washington and Colorado on Tuesday night, a former Seattle police chief and a former Denver police officer sat down with Raw Story to discuss what the laws will actually do and how they think things will change.  The possibility remains that the Obama administration may file suit against Colorado and Washington to prevent them from implementing regulatory schemes or granting permits for retail sales. Meanwhile, the Obama administration’s U.S. Attorneys have been adamant about busting hundreds of medical marijuana outlets.”

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/86b76e8d55e9f1002e55433c2e3a69201.jpg

“Despite the passage of ballot initiatives in Washington and Colorado legalizing recreational marijuana, ‘the Drug Enforcement Administration’s enforcement of the Controlled Substances Act remains unchanged,’ a DEA spokesperson told Reason this morning.  ‘In enacting  the Controlled Substances Act, Congress determined that marijuana is a Schedule I controlled substance. The Department of Justice is reviewing the ballot initiatives and we have no additional comment at this time.'”

Obama May Levy Carbon Tax to Cut U.S. Deficit, HSBC Says

Posted on by

“Barack Obama may consider introducing a tax on carbon emissions to help cut the U.S. budget deficit after winning a second term as president, according to HSBC Holdings Plc. A tax starting at $20 a metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent and rising at about 6 percent a year could raise $154 billion by 2021, Nick Robins, an analyst at the bank in London, said today in an e-mailed research note, citing Congressional Research Service estimates.  In China, the world’s biggest emitter, greenhouse gases from fuel use rose more than 9 percent in 2011.”

Four More Years of Uncertainty

Posted on by

“The 2012 elections mercifully are over, but we Americans find ourselves right back where we were. America remains a bitterly divided nation with roughly equal numbers on both sides.  President Obama, narrowly re-elected, can hardly claim a mandate based on the popular vote. The U.S. Senate remains in the hands of partisan Democrats led by the charlatan Harry Reid. And the House of Representatives is still in conservative Republican control.  I think the election results demonstrate that American voters, whether they collectively realize it or not, have guaranteed a continuation of the national mood of entrenched political animosity.”

The Winner of the Election: George W. Bush

“Both Obama and Romney have adopted the worst elements of the Bush agenda: perpetual and preventative wars, punitive trade sanctions, violations of traditional civil liberties, warrantless surveillance, extrajudicial detentions, regressive credit expansion, the revolving door between the White House and Wall Street, increases in domestic spending in the name of free enterprise, cronyism and national regimentation in the name of social welfare, regulatory expansion, deficit-based anti-recession measures, bailouts of banks and other major corporations, and colluding with special interests over major decisions behind closed doors.”

Could Obama use NDAA To Arrest Militias?

Posted on by

“The Obama Administration never clarified what constitutes a (belligerent); or militant; or what belligerent activities (directly aligned with a militant) to order a belligerent’s arrest or indefinite detention; or what is against the good of America. Under vague provisions of NDAA, the President could accuse anyone of being (directly aligned with militants by way of any political or other association; activity, statement, writing or communication with an individual or group government deemed (militant) to arrest and indefinitely detain Americans.”

A Lesson in Empire Building: The Use of “Foreign Aid”

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/564_10151116608375197_1713970224_n2.jpg

“It’s one thing to hear, or read about, the staggering number of U.S. dollars that get doled out to foreign nations. It’s another to actually see it visually on a map.  As you can see, with very few exceptions, just about every single nation in the world receives U.S. taxpayer money.  How can this be?  How can a nation that is $16 Trillion in debt possibly hand out even a dime?  Imagine going up to the average college kid with a student loan debt of $26,600 and asking him/her for a large amount of money. They’d look at you like you were crazy.”

Bernard von NotHaus: ‘Rosa Parks’ of the Dollar

Posted on by

“He was convicted more than a year and a half ago of ‘counterfeiting,’ because he issued silver coins, which he called ‘Liberty dollars,’ and sold them at a price much lower than they would command in United States currency [today]. The case throws into sharp relief an astonishing irony — that a man who issued money that has sharply appreciated in value is facing the rest of his life in prison while the officials who issue the official Federal Reserve Notes, the value of which has in four years plunged in half, to less than a 1,750th of an ounce of gold, are walking around free.”

Wary Swiss Banks Shun Americans

Posted on by

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/BF-AD689_SWISSP_NS_201210191809082.jpg

“The new law, expected to be phased in over several years, requires foreign banks to identify Americans among their clients and to provide their financial information to the Internal Revenue Service. Just one person overlooked could mean a penalty equivalent to 30% of a bank’s U.S. income.   Most banks in Switzerland have little appetite to deal with such risk and are quietly—or openly—ushering American clients out or limiting the range of products offered to them, tax experts and bankers say.”
