GOP tries to delete Dem voters from FL rolls to assure
Romney win
Despite violating the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the 1993
National Voter Registration Act. Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner,
however, "respectfully" disagreed with the Dept of Justice decision,
and suggested it would continue with its efforts. Most county officials are now
following the Justice decision. They have stopped disenfranchising voters. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-57449845-503544/florida-counties-halt-purge-of-voter-rolls/?tag=mncol;lst;1

Does your driving record predict your life expectancy?
This study analyzed more than 7.4 million MVR requests and
determined they are a predictive data source of an individual’s mortality, not
just in a vehicle. Individuals with major violations, such as alcohol-related
infractions and excessive speeding, have all-cause mortality rates that are 70
percent higher than individuals who do not. Additionally, the presence of six
or more driving violations on an MVR elevates an individual’s all-cause
mortality rate by 80 percent. In other words, bad drivers die young. And
someone paid for this study?

CA Aetna Health does bait and switch
Aetna Health of California routinely and illegally denies
patients access to out-of-network doctors after selling them costly insurance
policies that promise patients the right to chose their own physicians,
according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday by the Los Angeles County Medical Association
(LACMA), California Medical Association (CMA) and a coalition of health care
organizations and providers. “The insurance company interferes not only with
doctor-patient relationships, but also harms the ability of California
health care providers to get sick people the care they need in a professional
and timely manner.”
Their doctors, in turn, grapple with threatening phone calls.
Patients who are referred out of network are left with unpaid bills.

Barclay bank CEO is fired for allowing his team to fix
crucial economic rate
U.S. and U.K.
regulators found that Barclays “systematically” attempted to rig the London interbank offered rate, Libor, and the euro
interbank rate starting in 2005. It is the benchmark for more than $360
trillion of securities, including mortgages, student loans, and swaps. The
two-year probe, which involves regulators on three continents, has touched as
many as 18 financial institutions, including Citigroup,
Deutsche Bank, HSBC,
JPMorgan Chase, and Royal
Bank of Scotland. A dozen firms have fired or suspended traders in
connection with internal probes looking at whether their employees tried to
manipulate Libor.
Socialism for the rich
House ups farm corporations revenue guarantees by 40%; cuts food stamps to 3 million
House Agriculture Committee leaders would increase, by up to
40 percent, target prices that trigger payments to grain and oilseeds farmers.
They would give growers the choice of two farm programs -- traditional supports
or a revenue guarantee. The Congressional Budget Office said two million to
three million people would lose their food stamp benefits. Nearly 300,000 children would also be ineligible for the free lunch program under the new bill, the budget office found.
Cotton and sugar subsidies were not cut.
