Be Afraid - Republican Art Pope Buys North Carolina
An expose on Art Pope, an ultra-right wing Republican money-activist reveals Pope is quietly buying and bullying elections all across North Carolina in an attempt to make the state Republican.

His efforts include massive voter disenfranchise efforts, as well as covert political advertisements spreading as much disinformation about opponents that his candidate of choice can get away with (meaning big-money for lies). *This* is not Democracy.

On Warren Buffet
Posted to Google+ by a friend...
Warren Buffett:
Warren Buffet is a man who realizes that at the society-level, the winner-take-all model results sooner-or-later in an everyone-loses-in-the-end eventuality.
Warren Buffett:
"My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress... It's time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice."
