tracking america’s progress: corporations finally have a say in how government is run and who gets elected
Jan 29th
in a landmark january 21st decision by the highest court in the greatest country of the world, the supreme court — the single-most trusted body in the entire universe — finally recognized the constitutional rights of america’s most marginalized segment of the population: corporations.
in a gesture that one observer described as “a middle finger to freedom-haters everywhere”, the judiciary voted 5 – 4 in favour of overturning the 2002 draconian measure better known as the mccain-feingold act (as well as many other pieces of freedom-hating, corporate-prejudiced legislation that date back to 1907) which prevented corporate entities in the great land of america from airing their concerns by limiting how much they could donate during elections.
is eco-league dead?
Jan 24th
current status of eco-league as of february 8th, 2010:
IT’S OFFICIAL. SHE’S ALIVE.
eco’s website is now back up, and team registrations will resume on february 10th, 2010 as per their website:
Since we lost ALL of our registration data unfortunately, we will be reopening signups for both 1.6 and CSS on Wednesday, February 10. All teams that made main for both leagues WILL be moved up. We are also contacting each team to make sure that they are going to be participating in Season 2. If we don’t hear back from you, you will be removed from main and your spot will be reallocated in some form or another to an active team. How they will be reallocated has yet to be decided. When we have more information on that, we will pass it on to you. Another thing to note is that we will be syncing the seasons for 1.6 and source so that they start around the same time.
