Founding Member (since May 2006)I am a mid westerner transplanted to new england. I feel life is a gift and the way to honor it is to seek truth and the betterment of life for all. I strive to be humble. I am saddened by greed ,violence and lies of self interest. As humans we can do much better. The News Trust helps me get out of the rut of thinking/opining without the input of others. i love the wide array of sources and opinions. A cool side effect of taking part in this group is an improved ability to read the news and also express myself. I don't watch TV.

Common sense is not common...how did this get a job in Main Stream Media. He advocates a ethical , morally consistent approach to money, banking and government.
This guy is way different than the main stream enablers, very hard edge....I find him a breath of fresh air.

I posted this story early this morning under the CBS news pickup due to the difficulty of reading and referencing the WaPO site if you are not an online member...read the Greenwald article fro back up
Takes a while to get the info across...leaves out facts which many would like to keep hidden. Not bad for TIME....does not mention any history of patent law history or intent.
