The Women of Bolivia : A Reason to Celebrate http://theragblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/women-of-bolivia-reason-to-celebrate.html

Ms. Montano believes women have been key supporters of Mr. Morales. But another sign that women's political influence is on the rise is the fact that they now occupy an unprecedented 30% of seats in Bolivia's new legislative branch. One of them is Gabriela Montano, a senator who represents the eastern city of Santa Cruz -- Bolivia's opposition heartland

-- on behalf of Mr. Morales's party, the “Movement towards Socialism” (MAS). "This is the fruit of the women's fight: the tangible proofs of this new state, of this new Bolivia, are the increasing participation of the indigenous peoples and the increasing participation of women in the decision-making process of this country,"

IMF “Economic Medicine” Comes to America http://coto2.wordpress.com/2010/03/08/imf-economic-medicine-comes-to-america/

In addition to mandatory private health insurance premiums, we may soon be hit with a “mandatory savings” tax and other belt-tightening measures urged by the President’s new budget task force. These radical austerity measures are not only unnecessary but will actually make matters worse. The push for “fiscal responsibility” is based on bad economics.When billionaires pledge a billion dollars to educate people to the evils of something, it is always good to peer closely at what they are up to.

When billionaires pledge a billion dollars to educate people to the evils of something, it is always good to peer closely at what they are up to. Hedge fund magnate Peter G. Peterson was formerly Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations and head of the New York Federal Reserve. He is now senior chairman of Blackstone Group, which is in charge of disbursing government funds in the controversial AIG bailout, widely criticized as a government giveaway to banks. Peterson is also founder of the Peter Peterson Foundation, which has adopted the cause of imposing “fiscal responsibility” on Congress.

He hired David M. Walker, former head of the Government Accounting Office, to spearhead a massive campaign to reduce the runaway federal debt, which the Peterson/Walker team blames on reckless government and consumer spending. The Foundation funded the movie “I.O.U.S.A.” to amass popular support for their cause, which largely revolves around dismantling Social Security and Medicare benefits as a way to cut costs and return to “fiscal responsibility.”

Human Rights Crisis Phoenix http://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2010/03/human-rights-crisis-phoenix.html

A panel of U.S. Government experts is here in El Paso to gather information on Human Rights violations in preparation to the U.S. presentation before the United Nations in Geneva this November.Members of the Caravan to D.C. will testify as to the continuous attacks on the Migrant, Indigenous, and Latino communities in Arizona.

On March 6, 2010 The Caravan departed Phoenix Arizona and embarked on the three week journey to ALERT communities along the way of the Human Rights Crisis that awaits the entire country if Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano continues with the criminalization of working families. On March 13 we will join Congressman Luis Gutierrez in Houston for a massive rally prior to the grand mobilization in Washington D.C. We will culminate our three week Caravan on March 21st 2010 massive march in Washington D.C.

Phoenix Arizona is the Hate and Racial Profiling, capital of the world today. We know what awaits the rest of the communities in the United States if criminalization of families and workers goes unchecked. Our message will be to alert and also call on churches, labor, indigenous nations and community organizations to join our demands to:Eradicate ethnic cleansing and criminalization of migrant communities in the name of “secure communities.”
