Economic Edge...The looming collapse of European Banking
We now have the evidence to prove that the "listening sessions" on Minnesota's budget deficit are really just a sham. These so-called "listening sessions" are actually carefully orchestrated events designed to provide political cover for legislators who are trying to defend out-of-control state spending and advocate for increasing your taxes.
"Tax and spend" lawmakers are encouraging government workers and beneficiary recipients to "testify" against proposed budget cuts. We have intercepted an email sent by Rep. Gene Pelowski (DFL, Winona) to a number of government officials in his district requesting their attendance at a "listening session" encouraging them to present specific facts designed to support his political agenda. "We would ask you to focus your comments on the impact of the Governor's budget including what is the harm to your area of government or program," says Pelowski's email.
Attendees at the first meetings which were held last night had this to say about the so-called "listening sessions":
* This was not a "community meeting," about 90% of the speakers worked for and/or received benefits from state government programs.
* I listened to 38 speakers; about 75% were advocates for "no cuts in government programs" and/or "raise taxes."
* Only three people spoke in favor of "cutting spending" and "no new taxes".
* The composition of the crowd, and by extension, the content of the speeches, was what it was because the people who aren't current employees or beneficiaries of the state programs were not at the meeting.
* Now the legislators that attended the hearing will be able to go back and say that they heard over and over again that Minnesotans want to maintain existing government programs and are open to tax increases.
TAKE ACTION
We still need DOZENS of concerned taxpayers to SHOW-UP and SPEAK-OUT at these "listening sessions." If you fail to act, you can be assured of the outcome -- higher taxes for you and your family. Here's what you need to do.

"Of course, Eric Holder is correct.
When it comes to race we Americans are, for the most part, a nation of cowards. This cowardice was on full display during the most recent presidential election and continues today."
