Chicago alderman passed an alternative budget to the one proposed by the Mayor of Chicago and his supporters in City Council. Billionaire money was spent to buy supposed "progressive councilmen " to prevent one provision of the of the Mayors "The Protect Chicago Budget", that included reinstatement of a minuscule corporate head tax on only the largest of the corporations doing business in the City, a tax that was initiated under the administration of the first Mayor Daley, back in the 1970's, and continued until neoliberal bag-man for the Israel First lobby, then Mayor Rahm Emanuel nixed it. Other than that and the legalization of some socially regressive gambling activities, the Budget that passed contained 98% of what was in the Mayors original. But in that, only after an intensive people's lobbying campaign on certain aldermen forcing them to question whether they were more concerned about what Corporations and Billionaires thought than what their constitutions thought and might do in upcoming elections.

Journalist Joe Lauria condensed his remarks for presentation at at the conference, full text can be found at the link in the credits. Lauria speaks of the influence that the book Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution by the Russian prince, Peter Kropotkin had on his thinking. A scientific study challenging the usurpation of Darwin's theory of natural selection to support a racist theory, Social Darwinism, and its false inference that might makes right when examined in geological scale. "Exterminate All The Brutes" , One Man's Odyessy Into the Heart of Darkness and The Origins of European Genocide - Sven Lindqvist traverses the same slope to reveal that it is mutual aid within and among species that enables survival; not the winner take all of Social Darwinism; the logic of a cancer cell.

This week on Sea Change Radio we are speaking with Judith Enck, former EPA administrator and current professor at Bennington College. We discuss her recent book, “The Problem with Plastics: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late.” We examine some of the alarming stats associated with what seems to be a never-ending rise in plastics production and consumption, talk about how relatively little plastic is actually recycled, and delve into some policies and practices that can help stem the plastic tide.
