Ben McLeish - Prison, Punishment and Profit | Z-Day 2012 [ The Zeitgeist Movement ]

Sun, 06 May 2012 21:43:19 GMT

*Please sign up for our main Mailing List: http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/ * "Visibility is a Trap." - Michel Foucault The modern incarnation of the prison system is evaluated at its root value set, and core functions. Discussed are the origins of prison in torture and public spectacle, its inversion into modern incarceration models, and the morphing of the carceral model into one which reflects the dominant economic value system - profit before intended function, and its resulting violent social costs. Additionally, prison's effects upon non-criminals (including guards) are detailed in order to demonstrate the system's wholly undermining effects upon social integrity, regardless of criminality. The solution to crime is not more prisons, but the wholesale reorientation of society to a supportive, human-centered global citizenry, where the causes of crime are dealt with by the removal of stresses on the individual level, and the replacement of a competitive, divisive economic-social model with one of support, collaboration and rational, humane global village.

Thoughts from Within

Sat, 18 Feb 2012 16:10:06 GMT

I sometimes feel like an alien creature, for which there is no earthly explanation. Sure I have human form, walking erect and opposing digits, but my mind is upside down. I feel like a run-on sentence in a punctuation crazy world, and I see the world around me like a mad collective dream. An endless stream of people move like ants on the freeway. Cell phones, pc's, and digital displays. "In Money We Trust," we'll find happiness, the prevailing attitude. Like a genetically modified irradiated Big Mac is somehow symbolic of food. Morality is legislated, prisons over-populated, religion is incorporated, the profit-motive has permeated all activity. We pay our government to let us park on the street, and war is the biggest money-maker of all. We all know missile envy only comes from being small. Politicians and prostitutes are comfortable together. I wonder if they talk about the strange change in the weather. This government was founded by, of, and for the people, but everybody feels it like a giant open sore, they don't represent us anymore. Blaming the President for the country's woes is like yelling at a puppet for the way it sings. Who's the man behind the curtain pulling the strings? A billion people sitting watching their TVs in the room that they call living. But as for me, I see living as loving, and since there is no loving room, I sit on the grass under a tree dreaming of the way things used to be. Pre-Industrial Revolution, which of course is before the rivers and oceans, and skies were polluted, before Parkinson's, and mad cows, and all the convoluted cacophony of bad ideas like skyscrapers, and tree paper, and earth rapers like Monsanto and Dupont had their way, as they continue to today. This was Pre-us, back when the buffalo roamed and the Indian's home was the forest. God was nature and heaven was here and now. Can you imagine clean water, food, and air, living in community with animals and people who care? Do you dare to feel responsible for every dollar you lay down? Are you going to make the rich man richer? Or are you going to stand your ground? You say you want a revolution, a communal evolution, to be a part of the solution, maybe I'll be seeing you around... Thoughts from Within - a poem written and recited by Woody Harrelson. Featuring selected artwork by David Dees.

TZM Street Talk: Episode 2 - Income Inequality (Better Quality)

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 16:48:18 GMT

TZM Street Talk is a Youtube street interview series created to engage random people in a specific area about the problems/symptoms of an inherently flawed socio-economic system. The purpose of the interviews is to see how aware the average person is about these problems. At the same time, we hope through this type of dialogue, we can work towards solutions that address the root causes of these problems and not simply mask them as we have been doing for so long. In this episode, we interviewed people at 2nd Saturday in downtown Sacramento about the widening income gap between the rich and poor.

Peter Joseph | Russia Today 12-2 -11] Money Debt, & RBE [ The Zeitgeist Movement ]

Wed, 07 Dec 2011 13:53:10 GMT

Please sign up for our Mailing List: http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/ Courtesy of Russia Today, rt.com ( thank you! ) December 2nd 2011 From Rt.com: ...So, with all of the problems in the world today, how do people begin to think about, let alone implement solutions that can improve their lives and those of others in society? Economists like Steve Keen support debt jubilees, others like Lew Rockwell and Ron Paul support sound money as the solution, but what about something more radical? What about getting grid of money, profit and competition all together? Well, Peter Joseph, author of the Zeitgeist series, believes that society can evolve to do just that. He joins us during the show to talk about the role of debt, the monetary system, and social norms that encourage what he views as inefficient and destructive behavior that does more harm for society than good.

John Perkins, "Our Economy has been Stolen by Robber Barons"

Mon, 21 Nov 2011 21:36:30 GMT

To watch more visit us @ http://www.youtube.com/CapitalAccount Watch the full episode @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsAGsgvW3-Y In the first part of our interview with John Perkins on Capital Account, Lauren Lyster speaks with the former Economic Hitman about what he calls is a "mutant form" of capitalism or corporatism that encourages corporations to scour the globe in search of resources and cheap labor irrespective of the ill effects that their actions cause. John Perkins argues that this is a failed system, and that our economy has been stolen from us by modern day Robber Barons. As Chief Economist at a major international consulting firm, John Perkins advised the World Bank, United Nations, IMF, U.S. Treasury Department, Fortune 500 corporations, and countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. He worked directly with heads of state and CEOs of major companies. His books on economics and geo-politics have sold more than 1 million copies, spent many months on the New York Times and other bestseller lists, and are published in over 30 languages.
