#526 -- How 'The System' Causes Addiction (R)
April 1, 2018, 8:32 p.m.
A good introduction to Dr. Gabor Mate's insights into addiction. Mate (mah-TAY) shows that addiction is caused not by chemical substances but by the complex interaction of brain, experience, the environment (including society & the economy), and chemical substances. Our stressful, exploitative economic system is a major factor causing addiction. And since The System's "War on Drugs" does little good and much harm, could its REAL goals be more sinister than its professed goals?

with
The Coalition of Immokalee Workers and allies
For years, farmworkers with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers & their allies have called on Wendys to join all of its major competitors in the Fair Food program, a uniquely successful approach to eliminate human rights abuses in the agricultural industry. Instead of joining the Program, Wendys has taken its tomato purchases to Mexico, where workers continue to confront wage theft, gender-based violence, child labor, and even slavery without access to protections. Now tens of thousands strong, and endorsed by over a hundred organizations the CIW is asking you to join a boycott against Wendy's, until it does the right thing.
The struggle against poverty and for freedom must be led from the ground up.
The farmworkers of the CIW have been some of our bravest leaders these many years.Building Bridges brings you voices of the shero farm workers who have been Fasting for Freedom because they believe we need a fundamental shift in our nations moral narrative which places the lives of workers and the dispossessed at the center. The CIWs Fair Food Program has given workers a real voice in the decisions that affect their lives. And, with that voice they are transforming the agricultural industry where they work " eliminating slavery, violence, and sexual harassment in fields " where these abuses have persisted for generations. But, the fast food giant Wendy's has refused to support the Fair Food Program " and worse yet, it abandons growers who are doing the right thing to instead buy from an industry in Mexico " where they know sexual assault to slavery continue to thrive with impunity " is the very definition of amoral and unacceptable.

Venezuela: Major Target for US Regime Change
March 30, 2018, 7:01 p.m.
Bolivarian Venezuela has been an inspiration for much of the struggling people's of the world. Now it is suffering under US economic sanctions, military threats and an internal opposition known for violence. In the US, there is a constant stream of disinformation on Venezuela coming from the corporate media. Venezuela has been damaged by opposition economic sabotage and the Maduro government has not demonstrated the capacity to deal with the worsening economic crisis that has seriously affected the average Venezuelan's standard of living. Still, the Chavista government has shown the political skills in combating all the US-OAS-Opposition efforts to overthrow this government.
Currently, the US who has been attacking Russia for allegedly interfering in US elections has itself been working overtime to delegitimize and disrupt the Venezuelan presidential elections upcoming on May 20th. Despite these problems, Nicolas Maduro is expected to be re-elected. Moreover, the communal movement and the revolutionary Chavista base remains active and ready too defend their gains against the opposition and the meddling US interference. This movement is the real target of the US. The continuing existence of this radical movement is the key to the survival of Latin America's progressive changes in this century.
