mcmindfulness. corporations and govt want us to engage in self feeling management. there is never any justification to be angry. its all about maximizing productivity. we are trained to not even think about external factors on our emotions. the system is beyond question. mcmindfulness is a perversion of traditional mindfulness which is grounded in a moral and ethical vision.

There can be no free market without freedom of contract. 99% of the contracts we sign or click on are dictatorial fine print forms of consumer peonage or servitude. Ergo no free market. See http://faircontracts.org for information and take action. -R

That's funny. Jamie Dimon seemed fine with corporate socialism when his bank got a $416 billion bailout from American taxpayers.

Democrats are going to destroy your Social Security. I have totally left it alone, as promised, and will save it!
That's from a Newsweek article and is blatantly incorrect.

Trump said he was willing to look at cuts to entitlement programs in order to save them.
SS is projected to 'run out of funding' to keep it in the black in 2035.
Cuts to SS and Medicare do not have to be in the form of benefit cuts.

This is what The White House released as a statement to Newsweek ...
"With no benefit cuts, President Trump is keeping his commitment to the most vulnerable Americans especially those who depend on Medicare and Social Security," said a statement to Newsweek from the White House. "His budgets have proposed more savings to mandatory programs than any President in history, including lowering drug costs, eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, and getting people off welfare and back to work. We hope Congress joins the Administration in passing these critical reforms."

Non-regulation arguably took the lives of Kobe Bryant, his daughter and seven others. The FAA has long refused to require a "terrain awareness and warning system" urged by the expert
