Heads Up — Your Internet Freedom is Threatened

Internet freedom threatened, keep the internet open, protect the internet 2017, save the internet freedom

Freedom on the Internet is Under Attack.
They want to end net neutrality to control & tax the Internet.

FROM —Electronic Frontier Foundation
In a new proposal issued last week, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) set out a plan to eliminate net neutrality protections, ignoring the voices of millions of Internet users who weighed in to support those protections. The new rule would reclassify high-speed broadband as an “information service” rather than a “telecommunications service”. It would then eliminate the rules against blocking, throttling, and pay-to-play. In other words, your ISP would be free to set itself up as an Internet gatekeeper.
READ ARTICLE: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/11/lump-coal-internets-stocking-fcc-poised-gut-net-neutrality-rules


Net neutrality is the principle that Internet providers like Comcast & Verizon should not control what we see and do online. In 2015, startups, Internet freedom groups, and 3.7 million commenters won strong net neutrality rules from the US Federal Communication Commission (FCC). The rules prohibit Internet providers from blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization—”fast lanes” for sites that pay, and slow lanes for everyone else.

PETITION: http://act.freepress.net/letter/internet_faces_nprm_nn/?source=voices

“Ending net neutrality would be a major victory for ISPs such as Verizon, Time Warner Cable, Comcast, AT&T, Altice, and Charter.
Under the proposed rule, some sites could load more slowly at the discretion of your ISP — if at all.” — FROM BUSINESS INSIDER

Trump’s State Department has approved permit for the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline.

The Keystone Pipeline was rejected by the Obama administration because of the innate damage it will cause to the environment in the U.S.

The pipeline still faces obstacles and one of the biggest is funding.
TransCanada, the energy giant behind Keystone XL, will need major support from their banking partners if they want to complete their gigantic tar sands project.
Put the US banks on notice: DO NOT fund Keystone XL.

Path of Keystone Pipeline

Article with Background Information

————————
Do not fund the Keystone XL pipeline!

Dear [US Bank CEO],
Since Trump’s announcement of support, opposition to this project has grown. There is an increasing number of individuals and communities across the country (and national borders) committed to removing their money from banks supporting the Keystone Pipeline. If removing our money is the only way to get this to stop then that is what the people and communities will do and then those banks will no longer be in the game or exist. Banks funding projects like the Dakota Access Pipeline have already experienced significant  material damage from their association which these controversial pipeline projects and it will increase.

As you are aware, this pipeline plans to carry 800,000 barrels of tar sands oil daily across the US, to be refined, exported and burned.
It will subject the U.S. to years of environmental harm if completed. The American public will suffer the ramifications of these actions the land will be less valuable and our innate ecological balance could be diminished. The water will be affected and so will the quality of life. I think you can be a part of doing something better.

Support for companies pursuing projects such as the Keystone Pipeline is incompatible with the aim of combating climate change and is not in line with the statements you have already made. People will notice this incompatibility and remove their money if you continue to support it.

Why not fund alternative self sustaining energies such as solar, wind and even what Tesla was on to?  Those will provide much more long reaching profits. Since that seems to be what you are most interested in, then it is a no brainer to divest in these pipelines and move on.

Given the climate and human rights concerns attached to this project, I call on you to immediately stop any further financing of TransCanada and its partners.

You can be ahead of the pack.

Convention of States, Convention of States next, solutions to fed spending out of control, solve federal spending problem

Citizens concerned for the future of their country, under a federal government that’s increasingly bloated, corrupt, reckless and invasive, have a constitutional option. We can call a Convention of States to return the country to its original vision of a limited federal government that is of, by and for the people.

Convention of States – It’s purpose to rearrange the government structure.

4 Major Abuses:
1) The Spending and Debt Crisis
2) The Regulatory Crisis
3) Congressional Attacks on State Sovereignty
4) Federal Takeover of Decision Making Process
