Ocala, Florida 17, July 2009

Former Congressional Candidate John Russell once again tells it like it is. Holding public comment hearings throughout the state of Florida regarding the proposed rate hikes and proposed construction of the Levy County Nuclear Power Plant, the Florida Public Service Commission received an earful from the public.

John Russell focused his public comments on discussing the inherently corrupt nature of a system that is operated by, and for the benefit of the corporate sector.

John made his points in no uncertain terms much to the chagrin of the commissioners. :woohoo:




In particular, Commissioner Nancy Argenziano in her attempts to distance herself from the very sound arguments made by Mr. Russell inadvertently stepped from the proverbial frying pan... into the fire. :nuke:

As Commissioner Argenziano (R) attempted to defend her political integrity, John interjected that "The Florida Public Service Commission was a nice parking place for politicians in between elected office positions...."

A point to which Commissioner Nancy quickly responded "YES, YES, YES!" :woohoo:



Further on in the discussion, Commissioner Argenziano pointed out (again while attempting to defend her political integrity), that the Florida State Public Service Commission Does not work WITH the Florida Legislature...

It works FOR... The Florida Legislature....:crazy:

WOW... What happened to the "PUBLIC" in P U B L I C Service Commission? Like the PSC is...

s u p p o s e d to be looking out for the INTERESTS OF .... The PUBLIC... For Crying Out Loud! :think: :woohoo:

Several more video segments of this meeting will follow of other citizens speaking up against the corporate dominance over governmental decision making...

1. John Is Pointing Out The "Organized/Legal Corruption Of The System Itself...

To... The System! :)

2. Remember Folks, The System That John Is Describing Is Precisely The "Problem" That We Are Facing...

With the issue of Health Care Reform.

Politicians BOUGHT AND PAID FOR! This IS The Problem! John cites the solution as being Federal Campaign Finance Reform and Election Reform! :think:

3. Looks like a Kangaroo Court...a facade of democracy

The Commission is going through the motion of having a hearing for Progress Energy well knowing it's "in the bag." Look how bored they appear as John hits them hard.
