Several thousand MN Mud Ducks braved frigid temperatures and snow to attend Saturday's Rally in St. Paul in front of the state Capitol in Solidarity with their neighboring Chedder Heads. It was just above 0 degrees F but the cold helped bond the crowd that sang and shouted loudly of union, solidarity and common purpose. The message was that neither the Cold, the Koch Brothers, Scott Walker, the Republicans, the Teapublicans, the Corporatists, Wall Street, nor any other anti-Working Class devils would destroy their unity.

Speaking to a crowd of union members and supporters packing the rotunda of the Minnesota State Capitol, DFL Governor Mark Dayton proclaimed, "We don't need to be Wisconsin because their extreme measures won't become law here because I'm here."

Are you feeling kind of down after the election, thinking that the struggle to counteract the Corporatist Media and the tsunami of campaign mystery money is starting to look hopeless?

Well, philosophy suggests and history demonstrates that The People are amazingly resourceful in the never ending struggle to save the Elite from themselves. If left unchecked, the greedy bastards would destroy the matrix that births them and that sustains them even as they wage war against it. It's Class Warfare, genocide and suicide wrapped up in a big bonbon that only they intend to enjoy. But being compassionate, The People are always looking for ways to bring things back into balance and restore a kind of chaotic order, not from the top down, but from the bottom up. Many of these ways involve autonomous efforts to enhance communication and connection at the ground level.

Are you frustrated, pissed off and looking for something to do that's cheap, easy and effective? Take a look below.

CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN

Last Sunday Chileans, rich and poor, selected their new President for the next four years, Sebastián Piñera, billionaire owner of his own national TV channel and right wing candidate of the Coalition for Change. Just what kind of change the masses of low and moderate income voters had in mind when they made their choice is subject to debate. The change that voters from the Barrio Alto hoped for was visible in some of the jubilant post-election celebrations where images of former dictator Augusto Pinochet were were dusted off and paraded through the streets. The changes that Piñera actually intends to implement will be known in time.

Chile held a runoff presidential election yesterday. Have you heard? The electorate, either through ignorance or historical shortsightedness, selected Sebastián Piñera, candidate of the National Renewal Party.
