- Cabin fever? You are not alone. Think about this: currently we are experiencing a world wide crisis due to the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic. Our elected leaders have been constantly emphasizing the vital importance of people staying inside their homes (self-isolating and self-quarantining) in order to contain, slow down and stop the spread of this deadly virus. It was initially recommended that people stay in for a period of 14 days to help flatten the curve of the virus. However, people, es...

- CALIFORNIA INMATE PAY RATE SCHEDULE One would think that it is well past the time for a increase in prisoner pay rates in the CDCR? I would say yes, however Prisoncrats and Legislators naturally would say no! Never the less, lets examine the facts that over the years have come into play. When one considers the fact that the Department over the past 25 plus years have been authorized in several ways to dig deep into your meager resources and your family and friends wallet!

- Can the MDOC Be Fixed? No, this is not a trick question, however, the state of Michigan will never know the answer. The reason why is because its not that the Michigan Department of Corrections cannot be fixed. It is because of what it will take to fix it. Consider Structure The MDOC needs to be more structured. No one is on the same page. Most of their own policies and operating procedures are personally interpreted as the interpreter wants to interpret it. If another staff member says “That...

More and more people continue to be marginalized and rendered destitute by capitalism, forced by necessity to learn to live outside the formal economy. In this climate the politics of poverty, hunger, hom...

Likewise, it includes taking a critical stance towards my environment. This is my life, everything in it is personal, intimate, and immersed in who I am. I cannot compartmentalize my life to such an exact that nothing touches my core. This is unhealthy, and illogical. I must, however, learn to develop a meaningful ratio...
