Paying THEIR Dues - National Debt and Taxpayers Infographic
Angelo Agathangelou: Thanks to Aubree Ritter for alerting us to this information from 'Accounting Degree Review' on 'how the US national debt affects taxpayers' that exposes the fiscal excesses of statism whilst comparing internationally to show how this effects virtually everyone on our planet today.
How the U.S. National Debt Affects YOU
For the first time in U.S. history, the national debt has risen past
$17 trillion. That number is a bit hard to comprehend and means little
to Americans when not applied to their everyday lives. So just how does
the national debt affect consumers, and why should the average American
care about how much the USA owes?

Killing for Equality
The next two bullets punched into her abdomen. Finally he fired the fifth and last round, boring a hole through her wrist.
Last week, at the end of his murder trial, the verdict was delivered.
Not guilty.
It was not because the accusations against him were not proven. Bracken admitted to the acts, precisely as described above. He was acquitted on the grounds that his domestic partner, known in Australia as a defacto wife, had physically, emotionally and psychologically abused him during the relationship. That abuse rose to a level characterized in Australian law as “intimate terrorism.”
It was also brought out at trial that Curtis had made threats to murder Bracken’s father, which he feared she would follow through with.
The only charge that remains against him at this point is the possession of an unregistered weapon, for which he is out of jail under his own recognizance.
This story puts an interesting twist on recent news coverage of University of Ottawa law professor Elizabeth Sheehy, who has asserted in her new book, Defending battered Women on Trial, that women not only have the right, but the moral obligation to kill their abusers. She contends that women who kill under these alleged circumstances should not be charged or tried for murder.

Jewish Land Thieves Destroy Olive Trees In West Bank + Israeli Land Thieves Storm Al-Aqsa Mosque With Help From Regime Green Shirts
Another group of Israeli land thieves have destroyed scores of olive trees in the occupied West Bank.
UK Banned Press TV: The settlers destroyed around 200 trees belonging to Palestinian
farmers in the village of Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalailya in the occupied
West Bank, said Ghassan Daghlas, the Palestinian official in charge of
monitoring illegal settlers' activities in the area. He said the settlers from 39 Israeli settlements neighboring the area uprooted the olive saplings on Sunday.
Israeli settlers launch attacks against Palestinians and their property as well as Islamic holy sites.
On January 1, al-Tadamun Foundation for Human Rights, an NGO, said in an annual report that an estimated 8,000 trees, some of them hundreds of years old, had been damaged and destroyed altogether by the Israelis.
"Settlers' attacks include uprooting, burning and cutting down olive trees… Olive groves were also flooded by wastewater from the settlements," said the rights group, adding, "We have been unable to count the hundreds of trees damaged in groves close to settlements due to Israeli security measures."
According to villagers living south of the West Bank city of Nablus, genocidal Israeli land thieves who call themselves 'settlers' used chemicals in several cases last June to burn 1,500 trees there. In the blaze that followed, more than 49 acres of prime agricultural land was also destroyed.
