SARE’s 2009/2010 Report from the Field

SARE’s 2009/2010 Report from the Field

College Park, MD – Ranchers in Montana are conserving water and improving yields by diversifying their operations with a newly introduced winter forage. A South Dakota farmer who builds healthy soil through no-till and long crop rotations has boosted profits by bringing cover crops into his system. Corn growers in New York together have saved millions in recent years by making drastic cuts in their fertilizer use. And across the South, farm families are benefiting from an unparalleled collection of resources for small-scale poultry production.

These stories and more can be found in SARE’s newly released 2009/2010 Report from the Field, a collection of 12 profiles illustrating how SARE-funded producers, researchers and educators are collaborating to advance sustainable innovations to the whole of American agriculture. Report from the Field relates stories of innovation from every corner of the United States that are occurring in key areas of American agriculture, including land stewardship, clean energy production, marketing and urban agriculture, to name a few.

Report from the Field also includes updates on some of the funding allocations and priority activities being pursued by staff in each of SARE’s four regions. The SARE regions are launching new grant programs, conducting stakeholder listening sessions and taking other steps to ensure SARE grants continue to fund the research and education projects that are most needed and promise the greatest positive impact.

Filled with bold, bright photography and information on practical resources for further reading, Report from the Field is an inspirational and informative snapshot of the people who are working to make American agriculture more profitable for farmers, better for the environment, and a stronger foundation of rural communities.

FREE MARKET GREEN – Check Out the Tesla

The Electric Car is here!  Actually, its been in existence since about 1839.  Yes, 1839. 171 years ago?

Elon Musk, CEO and founder of Tesla Motors, has taken the electric car to a level that no one thought was possible.  The Tesla Roadster goes 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds and has a driving range of 244 miles with just one charge.  Its 100 percent electric, no-hybrid or hydrogen nonsense.

STOP Open Internet Regulations!

EEEK!

One of the saddest things that could possibly happen is have an organization called “FREE PRESS” trying to do the exact opposite and squash capitalism as we know it.

Be wary!  Network Neutrality has nothing to do with FREEDOM and everything to do with abolishing the beauty of the un-regulated Internet, which allows for all of us to post things like this.  PROTECT YOUR LIBERTY!  Read these blogs and let the FCC know what YOU think, STOP OPEN INTERNET REGULATIONS!

NO NO NO NO to Network Neutrality!  Leave what works alone, we love our Internet!

The Case for Limited Taxation

Once again, in my home state of Colorado, I see why limited taxation and adherence to free markets makes the most sense for WE THE PEOPLE.

Because of a state law that requires online retailer, Amazon, to collect online sales taxes (up to $4.6 million/year) – the retailer is dropping associations with Colorado-based affiliate marketers (those that help sell Amazon’s products).  This extra money in taxes, required now by the State of Colorado, is supposed to make up for part of its $1.3 billion budget shortfall.

What happens then to Colorado-based affiliate marketers (including The Good American Post) that have been dropped by Amazon?  Extra commissions that we earn (as small-business-owners) are now GONE!

The internet, the freedom it encompasses and and limited red tape that it embraces, are the very reason that small-business owners and individuals can thrive financially.  The fact that many transactions are not taxed, allow WE THE PEOPLE, to make more money.  Which is a GOOD THING – it puts more money in our pocketbooks, which allows us to spend more money in our local economies.  Not giving more and more of our hard-earned money to governments to throw into the trough of their irresponsible spending.

“Create” Jobs?

Q: How do you create jobs?

A: You create demand that will cause a need for industries to hire people!

Q: How do you create demand?

A: You eliminate or lower taxes and red tape.

Q: How do you eliminate or lower taxes and red tape?

A: You eliminate lengthy legislation that causes more bureaucracy and interferes with the marketplace.

So, the answer is, you cannot successfully “create” jobs through legislation.  It won’t work, it is unsustainable, and a futile long-term strategy.

What to do?  Put yourself to work! Start a small business!  Start your own Good American Post territory and fight the red tape with NEW MEDIA.

Keeping Track of the Votes – YOUR REPRESENTATIVES at work
