U-T Headline Today: "City retirees get bonus checks averaging $784 as "13th check" http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2010/dec/01/ci… Where was the "Watchdog" when their puppet-Mayors Murphy and Sanders caused all the problems we are having today! I wonder if they got the city computer fixed in time to produce the "13th check"?— December 2, 2010 8:36 a.m.
Lead Indicators Flat; Private-Sector Employment Zooms
Glad to hear that Don, I wish you the best success in your recovery. No one fights harder for what's right than you do Don. You have been fighting for all of us as hard as anyone has. I hope that you can still wake us up in time to save ourselves from the evolving "semi-plutonomy" because we need to join your fight for us more than ever before.— December 2, 2010 4:27 a.m.
Lead Indicators Flat; Private-Sector Employment Zooms
Another ray of hope in addition to what Don documented: AP (a few minutes ago) NEW YORK — Stocks started December with a jump. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 249 points Wednesday, its biggest one-day gain since Sept. 1 and the sixth largest this year. An encouraging employment report and hopes that Europe's debt crisis may ease boosted major indexes on Wednesday, erasing nearly two weeks of losses. Bond prices and the dollar fell as investors moved money into riskier assets.— December 1, 2010 3:15 p.m.
Lead Indicators Flat; Private-Sector Employment Zooms
Truly sorry to hear that Don, still hope you get your health back regardless of the economy.— December 1, 2010 1:39 p.m.
Lead Indicators Flat; Private-Sector Employment Zooms
You must have recovered Don, maybe another leading indicator, because it seems a long time since you gave us this much good news in one small space. Hope you stay in great health for a very long time so the economy can recover at last.— December 1, 2010 11:36 a.m.
Partnoy Quoted in Great Movie "Inside Job"
America needs for you to have your own TV Show Don. You're most certainly a better investigative reporter than anyone on TV today.— November 23, 2010 6:56 a.m.
Partnoy Quoted in Great Movie "Inside Job"
But the greatest question remains: Will We Learn From It In Time To Save Ourselves from the continuing "rape of American citizens by the big banks and their friends in government." First, we must consider some major cultural problems: We give up too easily, We watch and do nothing, We don't try hard enough, We don't get mad enough, We are too easily lied too, We get more concerned about potholes than the corruption that causes them, We have more than enough to do just to survive, so We appear to be descending into Dystopia in spite of the never-ending warnings in great literature, movies and TV, and Don Bauder's Blogs.— November 22, 2010 3:48 a.m.
Nov. 2 Memo Doesn't Mention Computer Glitch
Yes Don, plutocrats do seem to be the root cause of our failures today. Plutocrats feed on the wealth of nations while the rest of us are here to make them wealthier, something that Il Duce and the Downtown Mafia Association prove daily in San Diego.— November 21, 2010 4:02 a.m.
Nov. 2 Memo Doesn't Mention Computer Glitch
Don, the history of Democracy most certainly supports what you say. Athenians created Democracy to prevent revolution against abuses by the Eupatrid aristocracy. And our Founding Fathers created American Democracy to eliminate abuses and usurpations by the Tory aristocracy. Now we are faced with dealing with a 21st century Republican aristocracy. I hope the republicans revisit the history books soon to relearn why we have American Democracy, and change their ways so we can quickly restore life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in America once again the easy way that American Democracy was designed to produce.— November 20, 2010 5:03 a.m.
Nov. 2 Memo Doesn't Mention Computer Glitch
Don, once again you are absolutely right with this most important reason why CHANGE isn't happening at local, state and federal levels. So here in San Diego the U-T, Il Duce and the Downtown Mafia are literally getting away with destroying our public safety and health while We The People only do anything at most every two years, while things get worse much faster than that. No wonder the FBI looks the other way, "People are still nowhere near angry enough" to even demand protection from our own politicians. I really don't think that the current state of our Democracy is what our Founding Fathers, or even the Athenians had in mind.— November 19, 2010 5:15 a.m.
