BuzzFlash will be promoting more activism in the future, not related to D.C. but related to personal commitment to changing our communities, nation and world for the better. You will be hearing more about this in the coming months, but clearly one area we will be working on is saving our water and food supply as part of the public commons -- and resisting corporate control of our basic needs as humans.

That is why we are not just a progressivism journalism site; we are also a progressive commerce community, an advocacy change agent, and a site that celebrates progressive culture.

One of our key initiatives is alerting the BuzzFlash community to the dangers of privatized water and food that is coming dangerously close to being a corporate fait accompli.

That is why we are offering more progressive premiums on these topics.

This includes "Seeds of Destruction" and the Exposé Documentary on a Toxic Corporation: "The World According to Monsanto."

In the course of pre-occupation with events in D.C., we all run the risk of overlooking how corporations are becoming the new gatekeepers of the world, increasingly controlling our access to food and water.

"This skillfully researched book focuses on how a small socio-political American elite seeks to establish its control over the very basis of human survival, the provision of our daily bread. Control the food and you control the people. This is no ordinary book about the perils of GMO. Engdahl takes the reader inside the corridors of power, into the backrooms of the science labs, behind closed doors in the corporate boardrooms. The author reveals a World of profit-driven political intrigue, government corruption and coercion, where genetic manipulation and the patenting of life forms are used to gain worldwide control over food production. The book is an eye-opener, a must-read for all those committed to the causes of social justice and World peace."

"Engdahl [the author] lays bare the partnership between government, the major foundations and the agribusiness industry in their eternal quest for global domination with extensive citations, tying it all together well. The Rockefellers do not shine with this exposure. This book is a sobering analysis of the situation we are facing with respect to destruction of the globe's biodiversity and the indigenous and cultural knowledge of how to feed ourselves, all for the sake of a scheme to lock in profits by a handful of corporations and a government that works on their behalf. If you're already down about what's going on, this book is not for you. If you can handle the reality of the situation, definitely read it. This threat is greater than any threat of nuclear destruction by far. Whatever your feelings on overpopulation, the schemes he lays out, developed by the Rockefeller foundation, are truly disturbing. Especially so are the contraceptive corn and incorporation of hCG into a tetanus vaccine(resulting in sterility) given out in enormous numbers to women of childbearing age in Mexico, Phillipines and Nicaragua. This book will make you want to collect seeds on everything you bring into your kitchen from now on, to say nothing of making you not want to eat anything of which you do not know the provenance."
