Not For Sale: Latin America / Latinoamérica (Calle 13)
I am what they left, I am all that is left of what they stole,
a people hidden on the mountaintop, My skin of leather that's why it resists whatever climate,
I am a factory of smoke, farmer labour-force for your consumption,
a cold front in the middle of summer, love in times of cholera, my brother!
I am who is born and the day that dies, With the best sunsets,
I am development in the flesh, A speech without saliva,
The most beatiful faces I have ever seen, I am the foto of a disappeared person,
The blood in your veins, I am a plot of land that is worth it,
a basket with beans.
I am Maradona against England scoring two goals.
I am what holds my banner up, The spine of my planet, in my mountain chain.
I am what my father thought me, he who does not love his fatherland does not love his mother.
I am Latin America a people without legs that walks nevertheless.
You can not buy the wind,
You can not buy the sun,
You can not buy the rain,
You can not buy heat.
You can not buy the clouds,
You can not buy colours,
You can not buy my happiness,
You can not buy my pains.

NEWSFLASH (?) WallStreet traders don't CARE about Economy or Recovery, DREAM about Recession and Making (more) Money....
UPDATE: Rastani, de eerlijke trader: echt of niet echt?
UPDATE2: Yes Men: 'Not a Prank'
“If I see an opportunity to make money, I go with that … Personally, I’ve been dreaming of this moment for three years. I have a confession, which is, I go to bed every night and I dream of another recession, I dream of another moment like this.”
"This economic crisis is like a cancer … what I’d say to everybody is: get prepared … this is not a time right now [for] wishful thinking that government is gonna sort things out. The governments don’t rule the world. Goldman Sachs rules the world. Goldman Sachs does not care about this rescue package, neither [do] the big funds.”
“The first thing people should do is protect their assets, protect what they have. Because in less than twelve months, my prediction is the savings of millions of people [are] gonna vanish. And this is just the beginning."

Zaterdag 17 september zijn in New York enkele duizenden demonstranten en activisten samengestroomd voor een bezetting van Wall Street. Dit protest valt samen met gelijkaardige acties in meerdere steden in de VS. Overheden en mainstreammedia doen hun best om de meeste Amerikanen in het ongewisse te houden over de protesten.

[Also Funny] Butterfly to Humanity: If I Go Extinct I Swear...
A warning from a Karner blue butterfly to Humanity, taken from The Onion: http://www.theonion.com/articles/if-i-go-extinct-i-swear-i-will-take-as-many-humans,21250/
'I swear to you on all that is good and holy that before the Karner blue (butterfly) goes extinct, myself and the last remaining members of my species will take out as much of the human race as we possibly can. There will be mayhem. Children will die. People will suffer.
...
You think I'm kidding around? Keep messing with my habitat. Keep developing land and messing with my migratory patterns so that my food sources become even scarcer. Yeah, just keep on doing that and one night you're going to wake up with a knife to your throat as me and my last remaining friends force you to watch while we strangle your wife and kids.
Maybe then you'll take land conservation a little more seriously. But you know what? It will be too late because blood will be gushing out of a hole in your neck.
...
So, I'll give you one last warning, because this doesn't have to happen. If I were you, I'd seriously consider stepping up your conservation efforts, unless of course you want your buildings blown up and your people butterfly-gang-raped.
