Hey Friends!

If you haven’t seen this film you should. We will make it easy for you. Just hit play and share it far and wide!

‘Inside Job’ provides a comprehensive analysis of the global financial crisis of 2008, which at a cost over $20 trillion, caused millions of people to lose their jobs and homes in the worst recession since the Great Depression, and nearly resulted in a global financial collapse. Through exhaustive research and extensive interviews with key financial insiders, politicians, journalists, and academics, the film traces the rise of a rogue industry which has corrupted politics, regulation, and academia. It was made on location in the United States, Iceland, England, France, Singapore, and China.

Inside Job, Narrated by Matt Damon (Full Length HD) from jwrock on Vimeo.

Don’t block me out

Congress is considering two bills (“Protect IP” and “SOPA”) that would let the government or any corporation censor the internet, using the same DNS-blocking techniques as Iran or China.

The bills are ostensibly to stop copyright and trademark infringement, but they won’t. Instead, they’ll let the government shut down almost any social media website, since any site can be shut down just for audio, video, text or even *links* posted by its users. Any corporations will have the power to bankrupt any website or organization by cutting it off from payments, advertising and donations — without so much as a court order.

The law is being pushed by some of the strongest lobbies in Washington, it has broad bipartisan support, and it’s likely to pass in some form.

AWOP is participating in the fight against this ridiculousness. You should too.

No Muslims allowed

Tennessee state Rep. Rick Womick has a great idea. On Veterans’ Day, no less, he opined that Muslims should be forced out of the military. Why? He doesn’t trust ‘em.
