(Brief) Evening Memo:

- Here is a story about a fella that got 13 months in jail for hiring undocumented/illegal immigrant labor. I think this is bullshit. If we are going down this path, should we not hire the consumer that pays 19 cents for a banana? Perhaps the only thing saving our economy from a catastrophic inflation crises is the cheap labor that is keeping produce reasonably cheap. Is it better we import goods from poor countries with devalued dollars? As Mr. Mackey would say, "Xenophobia is bad, M'kay."


- The U.N. is broken and needs to be rebuilt. Here is just one more example of their ineptitude. They will not take any action on the Chinese atrocities in Tibet. For the record, the Security Council should consist of The U.S., Japan, China, Germany, and India, if it is going to be based on the current century. More later...

Afternoon Memo:

- Let us not forget Afghanistan. According to the United Nations: insurgent and terrorist violence in Afghanistan sharply increased last year, with more than 8,000 conflict-related deaths.(Click here for more)

- Apparently, one in four female Americans aged between fourteen and nineteen years has a sexually transmitted disease. As usual, they might have the right idea in India, where meditation techniques are being employed in the teaching if sex ed. I must confess that India might be the wrong place to look to for ideas related to contraceptives or birth control, kind of like looking to the United States for ideas on how to temper obesity and material consumption.

- Geraldine Ferraro (above), once served as Walter Mondale's V.P. nominee when together they won a total of 13 electoral votes, and that's 13 more than Ross Perot (right) or Ralph Nader ever got! She also seems to be a race baiter! In essence, her sentiments are that Barack Obama would never have made it has far has he has if he were white. Makes me wonder if she would have one more than a single state had she been on a ticket with Jessie Jackson in 1984... Hilliary Machiavelli seems to disagree altogether, claiming that he has not made it far at all and that she has all of the delegates.
