A question this brief summary brings up is why legislators and their constituents seem to be so out of sync when contrasting material conditions and policy? From a quantitative standpoint, can we contrast evidence from elections and their outcomes with this data? There is such a wide variety of possibilities: voter apathy and skew, voter exclusion, other values taking higher precedence, both legislators and constituents know something we don't about the effects of these programs, problematic methodology in the Shriver Center's scoring, political corruption, lobbying, incumbency dynamics, demographics (children can't vote), and on and on.

Perhaps by picking a single legislator with the greatest disparity between demographic poverty indicators for their region and their legislative record and then comparing with election data (such as campaign funding, voter turnout by polling place that is then collated with income by census tract, political scandal timelines, media indicators such as story frequency, etc) one could identify possible intervention points for organizing, for local policies that spur involvement, and effective ways to increase pressure on legislators.

HOLD CONGRESS ACCOUNTABLE FOR: “THE COURT MAY NOT” HELP VETERANS!
9/5/06 SUMMARY.
The U.S. Senate’s 12/8/94 Report “Lessons Spanning Half a Century" records Dept. of Defense (DOD) experiments.[9] Documented are 50 years of human “EXPERIMENTS THAT WERE DESIGNED TO HARM” of 1940's mustard gas & lewisite, 1945-1962 radiation exposures, a not Report recorded 1952-1956 jet-engine experiment. The U.S. Supreme Court STANLEY 1958 drug [5] 1950's-1970's bacteria and viruses injury trials! Following their timing they continue under the cover of our nation’s wars. This is proven by the Report’s citation of the in-the-record Executive Branch’s DOD and Dept. Of Veterans Affairs (VA) ongoing withheld confirming evidence. The U.S. Judicial Branch’s final authority on questions of law is Given to the, Secretary of the VA, i.e., a final decision authority with NO APPEAL on experiment alerting issues; 511(a)![6]&[10] On those that can be appealed there is the Veterans Chief Judge’s, "THE COURT MAY NOT REVIEW THE SCHEDULE OF RATINGS FOR DISABILITIES OR THE POLICIES UNDERLYING THE SCHEDULE"![8] In 2006 the underlying “DESIGNED TO HARM” unique cause and effects “DISABILITIES” are not in the “SCHEDULE" or in the subject’s records! By a 1953 Order Disobeyed Withheld From U.S. Veterans and Military Personnel Are an Ongoing 53 Years of Experimentation “To Harm” Protection Rights.[3] Lost Are Those Before Service Rights That All Other U.S. Citizens Including Rapists and Murderers Keep.[7] Accomplished By the Order Disobeyed [3] the VA Final Authority on Questions of Law [10] the 1988 “MAY NOT REVIEW” VJRA.[6] and the ignored 1994 VJRA corrections [9]. PLEASE VOTE THE U.S. CONGRESS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THESE DELIBERATE “DESIGNED TO HARM” ACTS. In particular, your members on the U.S. Senate and House Judicial, Veterans and Armed Services Committees!
1. The Feres v. United States, 340 U.S. 135, 146 (1950) case treats these experiments as an “INCIDENT TO SERVICE”![1]
2. On 26 Feb. 1953 the Secretary of the DOD Ordered [3] the Disobeyed 1994 Confirmed [9] No Non-consensual, Human Experiments.
3. The U.S. Supreme Court 25 June 1987 STANLEY is the U.S. Congress is responsible for these experiments.[5]
4. The 8 December 1988 Veterans’ Judicial Review Act is the response by a few in the U.S. Congress.[6]
5. The 8 December 1994 U.S. Senate attempted VJRA to-date revision rejected![9]
Harmfully withheld from the generally accepted medical community and from the victim throughout this VA “disabilities” procedure is the KEY evidence. This is the DOD’s AT-THE-TIME Research and Development (R&D) protocol recording of each experiment’s revealing “designed” how, when, where Causes with the resulting “to harm” medical Effects (C&E)!! They determine the then developed protection from “harm”. Withheld are each separate service’s scheduled and conducted “designed to harm” C&E, including any vendor’s supporting records. Also withheld are the overall military services protection from “to harm” with its C&E that are coordinated and recorded by the DOD’s R&D Board and its successors.[3] To-date not available is this Report confirming in the DOD record“policies” identifying evidence. Even after this 1994 alert a now 12 more years from the 50 years of experiment omitted C&E!! Prevented is any group’s 62 years of lessons learned. Prevented is each subject’s experiment specific in & after service diagnostic disability evaluation and follow-up treatment. The victim never the wiser becomes!
The 1973 National Personnel Records Center fire destroyed most of the past subject’s service documents. Congress’s 1974 Privacy Act censored the names of all witnesses from surviving and future records. A December 8, 1994 U.S. Senate response [9] to the 8 December 1988 VJRA [6] is a still not realized: 1. Accountability for the DOD now MANY order disobeyed HARM EXPERIMENTS! And 2. That the injured subjects be allowed an unrestricted Judicial Branch redress, e.g., NOT be stopped as an "INCIDENT TO SERVICE" [1]. Reported is that these subjects are DOD prevented from recognizing that the experiment establishing "TO HARM" is "associated with their military service". As after service to-date duplicated through the VA by its final decision authority and the VJRA’s “may not review” of this R&D with its resulting C&E evidence. There will be no repeating of the STANLEY are you OK follow-up. Then identified was this 1958 experiment. There will be no STANLEY to the U.S. Supreme Court bypassing of the VA’s "disabilities" process. "THE COURT” that “MAY NOT” is a for Veterans only severely restricted Article I U.S. NOT Judicial Branch Court. This is its 1994 Chief Judge’s no teeth“Judicial Review” statement.[8] It is a few in Congress’s VJRA creation.[6] During the VA “disabilities” process there is NO access to a MAY REVIEW unrestricted Judicial Branch. And by the VA final decision, appeal denied! Captured is every “TO HARM" subject. All within a 15 to 20+ years of a “may not” must be completed greatly VJRA extended no experiment appeal procedure. In 2006 there is no accountability for these order disobeyed "designed to harm" acts! And the destroyed, censored and withheld in-the-record verifying evidence. A justice denied for the greater good end justifies the means! Thereby approved is the use of our children and grandchildren as PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE in-service guinea pigs.
With the help of many USAF, VA, National Veteran Service Organizations (NVSO) and Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) personnel an example of how Congress’s few no accountability is implemented is well documented. This is by a without end in sight of a VA ongoing 15 years from 1991 of a from 1957, 49 year negation of a jet-engine 1952-1956 experiment cause. Conducted in direct disobedience of the DOD Secretary’s 1953 order![3] A multiple trials in-the-record then 1952 known F86-D’s, J47 jet-engine certain “to harm” unprotected 87,381X (158dB.) to 699,051X (176dB.) sound pressure injury.[2] Such exposure resulted in an 8 day from 5/27/53 sick & dizzy records. On the 6/25/56 Separation from Service recorded as a “4 DAY COLD” hospitalization. Developed was a version of “harm” protection then in use! The USAF Physician's 1/29/54 Cadet Wing Commander washout exam’s cause of, "Had some trouble with hearing while working on warm-up crew for F86-D with very high noise levels." The physician’s 7/29/54 get him off the flight line memo! Then the year later also ignored physician’s 7/21/55 do not expose to “loud acoustic trauma”. Confirming many prior in-service and subsequent physician’s diagnosis on 9/15/99 a VA ENT Chief stated that the “SCHEDULE” omitted medically known since 1861 “symptoms of menieres disease clearly are documented in his service record”, i.e., its hearing loss + tinnitus + vertigo + et. al.[4] Which “disabilities or the policies underlying” "may not" be Court reviewed. The total Cause & Effects (C&E) are in the VA 5/7/57 requested and stamped 6/3/57 received, 6/26/52 to 6/25/56 original service records.[4] A VA physician’s 6/26/57 initial disability exam & service based determinations were laymen rejected. This is the local Regional VA Rating Board’s 7/9/57 diverting award of only one of the “CLEARLY ARE DOCUMENTED” in-the-record Menieres disease symptoms (known since 1861) of its hearing loss.[4] Then this same C&E evidence sent 4/3/58 directly by the 6/26/57 VA physician with its resulting VA received to-date also ignored extent of injury, i.e., by the USAF SURGEON HQ AARC, 25 June 1958 "PERMANENTLY” “MEDICALLY DISQUALIFIED FOR MILITARY SERVICE". Followed by the very effective disingenuous 22 January 1959 “HONORABLE DISCHARGE” with “RECOMMENDED FOR REENLISTMENT - YES”! A 10/5/94 VA Criminal Investigator noted these records as misplaced. On 8/1/05 VA rediscovered 49 years later. From 1991 over 30 times the veteran’s 6/25/56 retained service records have been submitted, with requests to address these issues and administratively ignored.[4] FORTY NINE (49) years later still not VA officially recognized and responded to are their 6/3/57 received and veteran submitted complete in all respects facts of record.
