Give me bankruptcy or give me death?
The Status Quo- Insurance Scam.
I work in the medical field and healthcare reform is a great idea. It's about time.
I've sat by powerless, while many people have died in my care waiting for insurance companies to authorize non-formulary medications or treatments. Most people are healthy and don't realize how small the list of authorized formulary items is, until it's too late. Bankruptcy or Death is not what Americans should have to choose between. Health Security should be a right.
Even greedy self-loathing hypocrites whom don't like being GUARANTEED protection will someday need more than they can afford, so then, its illness or bankruptcy or DEATH for themselves or a loved one. Anyone who has tried calling an insurance company knows the truth. There is almost no regulation and mostly people just dance in circles with the insurance companies until it is too late. Time is on the insurance companies’ side. For them, time is money and for us or our families it may be a matter of health or death.
The Most Oppressive Debt- The Banking Scam You Never Hear About
As a former student organizer and staff of the US Student Association, I always have an eye out for stories about access to higher education, and the affordability crisis. Not only are there few stories, but they usually focus on the impact of rising tuition. The analysis (if there is any) is it is caused by more cut backs in state funding. There's little to no analysis of the declining value of the Pell Grant.This segment on Democracy Now is astonishing. Like I said, I know more than the average person about student loans, the impact on students, and on access to higher education for communities of color; and I am amazed at the analysis and the evidence here of a student loan racket and wholesale ripoff. You have to watch it for yourself starts 13 minutes in (scroll down for audio or the written transcript).
They show clips of Defualt: The Student Loan Documentary, from the website,
"While the media has focused on the disaster that sub-prime mortgages have turned out to be, only superficial attention has been given to financial giants which have been profiting by approving loans to low-income students with variable interest rates up to 25%."
Another guest, Alan Michael Collinge, author of The Student Loan Scam: the Most Oppressive Debt in US History--and How We Can Fight Back, talks about his personal experience with the student loan industry and reveals how private banks have created a perfect monopoly and racket in student loans that even the mob would envy. His website www.StudentLoanJustice.org is fantastic- it names names.In addition to extraordinary and arbitrary fees, student loans have been stripped of consumer protections, not just bankruptcy protection, but truth in lending laws. Under the banking protection laws, it is in their financial interest for students to default- you owe them WAY more, AND they still collect. This graph will help illustrate that profit motive.
"Many people took out loans they were never going to be able to afford,never! That means somebody knew from day one they were never going tobe able to pay back the loans." The bankers approved these loans and used the money to pay themselves bonuses and payed our government representatives to look the other way…that’s where we are…any suggestions for getting us out of the mess are welcome…but if you just want to play the blame game…where does that get us?

Battered mothers are losing custody to abusers every day.
The fraud going on in family court is largely due to unethical psychologists who send little children who complain of physical or sexual abuse by the father by accusing the children of having "parental alienation syndrome". Only they generally leave the word syndrome off in the courtroom because this is a made up syndrome by a pro-pedophilia doctor named Richard Gardner. For the truth behind this syndrome, checkout http://cincinnatipas.com/richardgardner-pas.html
This fraud has been exposed, but continues to go on in Kangaroo Courts all over.
Check out - Ruling Debunks Custody Diagnosis http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23495760-2702,00.html
The theory is not supported by the APA, but due to the lack of ethics, profiteering, and tacit acceptance of pro-pedophilia ideas, the APA has done nothing to help these victimized children.
See statement on Parental Alienation by the APA http://www.apa.org/releases/passyndrome.html

The American Psychological Association (APA) believes that all mental health practitioners as well as law enforcement officials and the courts must take any reports of domestic violence in divorce and child custody cases seriously. An APA 1996 Presidential Task Force on Violence and the Family noted the lack of data to support so-called "parental alienation syndrome", and raised concern about the term's use. However, we have no official position on the purported syndrome.
The American Psychological Association (APA), in Washington, DC, is the largest scientific and professional organization representing psychology in the United States and is the world's largest association of psychologists. APA's membership includes more than 150,000 researchers, educators, clinicians, consultants and students. Through its divisions in 53 subfields of psychology and affiliations with 60 state, territorial and Canadian provincial associations, APA works to advance psychology as a science, as a profession and as a means of promoting human welfare.
With this lack of oversight, the profiteering, corrupt psychologists are free to destroy the lives of battered mothers and their children. Now any valid complaint of abuse is readily called "parental alienation" by professionals who profiteer from this fraudulent scam.
The mere use of the "Alienation" label in court makes the person being accused of this less credible. So just by saying this, the victim is undermined with NO PROOF whatsoever.This often flys in the face of mountains of evidence of physical and sexual abuse of a mother and child. Holly Collins was a victim of this scam and received political asylum in the Netherlands for Human Rights violations by the United States after her children were given custody to a know abuser. http://www.womensenews.org/article.cfm/dyn/aid/3662/
There is also a case pending with the IACHR for human rights violations to victims of this fraud.
On May 11,2007, just before Mother’s Day weekend, ten mothers, one victimized child, now an adult, leading national and state organizations filed a complaint against the United States with the Inter American Commission on Human Rights. Their petition claims that U.S. courts, by frequently awarding child custody to abusers and child molesters, has failed to protect the life, liberties, security and other human rights of abused mothers and their children.

The people who are using this Unsupported Theory to gain custody are typically intimate terrorist type abusers. The common characteristics are moral corruption, anti-social behavior, dependencies, along with vengeance and the ability to get someone to finance this campaign of terror on the domestic violence and child abuse victims who are trying to escape.
The True Abuse/False Alienation Scam
There are false allegations of fictitious syndromes going on all over the country and around the world. Truly, horrifically abusive men, armed with lots of money, use false allegations of Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS) as a strategy to perpetrate “family annihilation. ” Instead of doing this physically, these abusers are using family court to inflict the damage. The men who claim to be “alienated” often will repeatedly call in false abuse reports on the mother (but this is ignored in court proceedings and by the PAS accusing evaluator). These same men will attempt to “coach” the child to say bad things and make false allegations against the mother. When the child reports the father for whatever type of abuse he is doing (including parental alienation tactics), the father falsely claims alienation by the mother. It is a reign of on-going terror with the child as the ultimate victim. There are some of the frequently occuring elements that seen over and over in the true abuse/false alienation scam. These behaviors start while still in the relationship, this is not something that occurs as a result of divorce, but they are the reason for the divorce: Abuse frequently either begins or escalates during pregnancy. Abuse can be physical and/or sexual. Threatens to take the children if the victim mom leaves. Threatens the life of the mom and/or children. Extremely emotionally abusive and controlling. Coercive control is constant. Stalking. Harassment by any means possible, phone, email or any other means of communication. Communications are with the intent to inflict emotional distress. False accusations of infidelity. Interferes with wife/mom’s work. Keeps mom and kids from having friendships with other people, and relationships with her own family, wants to only be with his relatives and friends. Financial abuse (may incur bills and refuse to pay any, forces mom/wife to take on debt to keep family afloat while simultaneously undermining work of wife/mom). Wife/mom will try to get help for husband/dad, and NOT immediately leave. Wife/mom will refuse to prosecute, only to later have this be extremely detrimental. CPS involvement due to domestic violence and child abuse reports called in by people other than the mom. Mom will be terrorized with every report because she is at risk of losing kids to CPS. Abuse against child that child discloses to mom while still married or in relationship. Mom will choose to work with dad on this personally. Mom gets threatened by CPS with failure to protect while married or in relationship. Visitation may be stopped for valid reasons. Child is a pawn, the ways and means of continuing the abuse on the mother while inflicting great harm on the child. Child will often be abused in front of mother intentionally during exchanges. Child exchanges are just another opportunity to inflict harm on mom and child in any way possible. Calling all day, changing times, changing locations, repeatedly and obnoxiously. Father refusing to return child from visitation. Father will often have wealthy parents (and usually highly abusive and controlling father). Father’s parents will also engage in the terrorizing of mom and kids, and will also make threats and file false reports. Father’s parents function like tag team of bullies. Father will have visitation, then falsely claim that he was denied visitation. (Valid reasons for schedule changes are claimed to be “alienation.”) Father will receive phone calls, and school correspondence, then falsely claim that the calls were not long enough or meaningful enough, etc and that he did not receive ENOUGH information from school or may falsely claim that he received nothing when opposite is true. Mother will comply with every order in great detail, while father disobeys, but father will file for false contempt claim in order to commit custody exchange fraud. Father only needs to lie to psychologist, who then does nothing to corroborate any information, and psychologist will come to court and falsely accuse parental alienation without any evidence. Courts will listen to paid expert and vilify the protective parent to the delight of the abuser. Father is expert at “crazy-making” This behavior distorts reality and destroys the possibility of honest communication. This is a very effective device to increase confusion and insecurity in the victim. It also makes the victim mom have to continuously defend in court. In these cases, of course the child is fearful of the father. The children will be telling the truth, and the psychotic father is claiming they are lying and forcing the children to undergo evaluations and reunification therapy in efforts to have these psychologists “brainwash” the children into believing alternate versions of realty. The children are tortured by unethical lawyers and psychologists profiteering off the case under the direction of the abuser dad who is usually a very skillful and charming liar. The litigation will go on endlessly as the protective parent desperately tries to shield the child. This whole tactic of the true abuser using false allegations of alienation is an extreme form of emotional battering (http://aja.ncsc.dni.us/domviol/page5.html), and is a way of continuing to inflict abuse. The child will resent the true abuser even more, because of the hell they are being put through in order to exact revenge on the mom. This False Allegation of this Fictitious Syndrome needs to be exposed for the Fraud that it is!

and was also posted on Glenn Sacks site where it was victiously attacked.
I have not heard of a women using this scam to get custody of the children after there were findings of abuse. So the use of the male terminology is due to this fact. It is certainly possible for this to occur, so I am not saying it couldn't happen.
Also, for those people out there who claim to be "alienated" this is a different use of the same label. This scam is being done by known domestic batters. There are moms who say they are alienated because they don't get to see their children, and again these are all differents uses of the same label.
The theory is not sound and is being used to mean whatever the PAS accuser wants it to mean.

In 1955, when racism was still a big issue in the United States of America, Ella Fitzgerald became the first African-American to perform at the Mocambo, after Marilyn Monroe had lobbied the owner for the booking. The booking was instrumental in Fitzgerald's career. Marilyn would promise the owner that she would appear every night (and be on time), and this way also fill the house--and she did, she was there every night, and she filled the house and: she was always on time! Their close friendship lasted for many years and Ella would sing Marilyn Monroe's famous 'My Heart Belongs To Daddy' in honor of her wonderful friend Marilyn Monroe, who died almost 34 years before she passed on in 1996, at age 79.

Given the exceptional knowledge of detail that many, if not most of those reading this post have I’m going to present it in outline form.
Imagine you are suddenly thrust into an entirely public, search lights full blast, blaring audio, moment in which you are told that unless you act the global economy collapses and America is the cause. Imagine some thug from Goldman Sachs shoves a terse document in your face and says ‘do this or the 2008 version of the great depression will happen and you caused it.’
Imagine millions of Americans are suddenly confronted with another dose of mega-fear. What do you do? Well, if you are both strategically brilliant and tactically skillful you do exactly what Obama, Pelosi, Reid & Frank have done during the past two weeks.
Firstly, you recognize the timing and the intended impact on the impending first debate between Obama and McCain.
You recognize that should you refuse to do everything you can to be responsive to the crisis, and explicitly open to dialogue with Republicans, as to reach a necessarily bi-partisan agreement you will be called everything from traitor to terrorist.
You recognize that if you immediately begin informing the public that the three page manifesto you had trust in your face amounts to nothing less than further ravage of the Constitution and poison to any hope of real economic recovery, you will likely see the vast majority of Americans being rambunctiously against “Wall St. welfare.’
You recognize that if you structure your responses as a transformation of Paulson’s trash into a framework of responsible containment of the supposed “crisis” you will have established the high-ground knowing full well that you have primed two critical responses.
One of those critical responses is that you recognized that the vast number of Republican incumbents would have very little chance of winning on 4 Nov 2008 if they supported the plan.
Knowing that, you would have realized that you could easily have a significant number of House Democratic members vote yes without risk, thus diffusing any claim that the Democratic Party was unwilling to support an albeit lame and dishonest Republican President.
Knowing that. you would have painted the Republican members of the House in exactly the picture the entire world saw – they, for the first time in eight years, broke with their President because they knew that if they voted yes – ostensibly the heroic action that the “crisis” demanded – they would be crucified on 4 Nov 2008. Politics trumped serving the good of Americans – and its all the Republican members of the House’s fault.

Excerpt:
"Like a lot of folks who are completely flabbergasted by the Government's repeated efforts to whitewash and gloss-over the all of the gross negligence, malpractice and criminality of this - The Worst Financial and Constitutional Crisis in Our Nation's History - I decided last night i would look up some of what the guys and gals at the Federal Reserve, Treasury, SEC, and FDIC were up to between 1997 and 2007, and how they could have not seen any of this coming until apparently this week.
I say apparently because the bureaucrats and sycophants are all maintaining that this whole fiasco is as big a surprise to them as it is to Mom-and-Pop getting foreclosed upon in their Golden Years.
I know they are lying, and you know they are lying.
So once again we will play the cat and mouse game of "who knew what and when" as the Crooks all disappear into retirement with their $Trillions of stolen loot, the Politicians will blowhard and achieve little, and the whole thing will fade away from the headlines with time and the advantage of a short American attention span.
But for now, while every is watching and mad as hell, I am going to try my best to do my little part in exposing the hypocrisy and bald-faced lies being spewed around Washington DC and the mainstream press. I was on-line all morning and found so much material that I had to abandon my original post and choose just one document to focus on today - the 2002 Annual FDIC Report..."
The organizer of the controversial "Africans for Obama" fund-raiser (which I recently wrote about), Professor Ndi Okereke-Onyuike, has been arrested and detained in Abuja, Nigeria, by the anti-graft arm of the Nigerian Law Enforcement - The Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC).
This is a Developing Story.
I just got a phone call asking for a contribution to the Obama campaign, but two things were puzzling: one is that I made a contribution via this site two days ago, and he used my nickname which does not appear on this site.
So I'm wondering if this is a scam where people are saying they're with Obama's campaign in hopes of getting people's credit card information.
Does anyone know about this? Is it legitimate and, if so, why don't the callers have a list of people who have not contributed, rather than phoning those who already have and continue to do so?
