Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Politics, by Jonathan Shockley, provides an in-depth analysis of the role of money in politics. Can a society whose political system functions in accordance with the self-serving strategies of big business call itself democratic? Is limited, programmed public participation occurring every few years worthy of such an esteemed categorization? “Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Politics” provides startling answers to these questions–reinforced by an increasingly bleak political climate–and makes a case for social organization free from tyrannical institutions of any variety. read full story / add a comment

Irish News article on discovery of Bethany graves by Valerie Robinson - 22 May 2010

A Dublin Cemetery has been discovered as the gravesite of forgotten children from the Bethany Home Dublin. Bethany Home was associated with the Church of Ireland and Church of Ireland missionary society, the Irish Church Missions to Roman Catholics. It operated in Blackhall Place, Dublin, from 1921-34 and in Orwell Road, Rathgar, until it closed in 1972.

The Bethany Home was a combined maternity home, children’s home and place of detention for women convicted of petty theft, prostitution, infanticide and birth concealment.

The home and the religious ethos that sustained and ran it was part of what James Smith of Boston College in his book, ‘Ireland's Magdalen Laundries and the Nation's Architecture of Containment’ (2007), termed an Irish ‘containment culture’ that focused on single women and effectively criminalised childbirth out of wedlock. read full story / add a comment

This story was blacked-out by the media for a year and involves
two men whose lack of personal scruple has enriched them at
the cost of lives.

in profligacy which has destroyed lives, truly rats in sewers
