With all the surveillance you're capable of, can you work on either getting this stuff right, or staying away from it entirely?

Yeah, there is a "bit of a debate", and the side that makes the claim is a bit of a cheat.

https://www.washingtonpost.com...

any American who read a newspaper even just once a week for a year would already know it isn't true. . . . you've been exposed to the information numerous times, and also you could look it up and check right now.

Predictably, your claim "it's everywhere" is accompanied by precisely zero examples. I'm sure you'll come up with some kind of very clever excuse why you didn't, but the reality is it's because there's nothing to provide: The Washington Post fact checker rated that sort of claim as four Pinnochios, and extensively explained why. I know it can be scary to click on links outside your echo chamber, so I'll even summarize it for you: Less than 3.5% of state and less than 0.5% of federal prisoners are incarcerated due to drug possession. The percentage of those incarcerated for possession of recreational quantities would of course be smaller (likely much smaller), and the percentage incarcerated for "a long time" for recreational quantities would be smaller still, though even the full-scale numbers demonstrate my point clearly enough. Thanks for playing.

every school is on anti-bullying initiative

I remember those. They used them to punish me for fighting back against bullies.

every teacher and parent is hypervigilant about all kinds of nonsense issues (i.e. stranger danger)

Well of course the teachers want to protect their students from strangers. Mostly so they can molest them themselves.

Innocent people don't regularly accept Plea Bargains.

YouTube wants to turn off the comment sections on children videos because they attract child predators. All those displaced child predators can now go to Gab to comment on those videos. Unless, of course, Gab's TOS doesn't allow child predators to do that.

We've been at war in Iraq since when, the sixties?

But we weren't sucking the treasury dry.

The family bitchfight that was the Dubya war, was pointless.

Every president for decades has bombed the shit out of Iraq. This is not about a "family bitchfight". This is about American imperialism. Reagan. Bush. Clinton. Bush. Obama. Trump. What do they all have in common? Military policy in the middle east.

Because statistically speaking, he's perfectly safe. In 2014, the fatality rate for officers was .01%, or 11.1 per 100,000, and around half of those were a result of non-violent incident (accidents, both auto and being struck, illness, etc.)

One reason being a police officer is less dangerous than you might think is that they prefer to get their retaliation in first.

Her father was a VP at Enron(!) then worked at government agencies and her mother was a Congressional staffer.

According to the British:

Britain says Huawei has not fixed ‘serious’ problems affecting network security

Top British cybersecurity officials on Wednesday said the Chinese telecom equipment provider Huawei has yet to fix “serious” engineering problems that could leave civilian networks vulnerable to compromise, at a time when the United States is pressing its case that the company’s ties to China’s government make using its gear an unacceptable security and surveillance risk.

Sounds like Slashdot posted some more Chinese propoganda.

Yessir. Here is an example of the innuendo about "potential conflicts of interest":

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/top-trump-appointees-promoted-selling-nuclear-power-plants-to-saudi-arabia-over-objections-from-national-security-officials-house-democratic-report-says/2019/02/19/6a719762-3456-11e9-af5b-b51b7ff322e9_story.html

The report released Tuesday notes that one of the power plant manufacturers that could benefit from a nuclear deal, Westinghouse Electric, is a subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management, the company that has provided financial relief to the family of Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and a senior White House adviser. Brookfield Asset Management took a 99-year lease on the Kushner family’s deeply indebted New York City property at 666 Fifth Ave.

az-saguaro I appreciate your courteous and considered response. Let me rejoin. You wrote: "A truly righteous non-greedy company should be proud of what it does, and continue to do so for the same righteous reasons."

This may have been true at one time in the health field, but big pharma especially has lost all moral compass -- not to mention insurers and HMOs. Regulation and an institutional paradigm shift are what is needed to fix this debacle. The recent anti trust action involving generic makers is but one case in point. Up and down the line from suppliers to providers the naked greed and savage levels of exploitation and conflict of interest is nauseating to watch. Doctors themselves are not immune from the depredations of Big Health.

There is a bright moral line between a business like automobile manufacturing and medicine. A person can live without a car but not without chemo if they have cancer. It is conceded that the profit motive must have a place in healthcare innovation -- capitalism works after all. But powerful social institutions must be engaged to mitigate the worst impulses of corporate actors -- especially when it involves life or death. The current system in the US particularly is out of balance and we all know it. Corrupt lawmakers beholden to special health interests are much to blame. We simply need to vote them out. And we are on our way to doing so. The Affordable Care Act can be much improved if the will is there. IMHO a single-payer system will do a better job of giving everyone the healthcare that is a human right. And for people with money there is always the option for private insurance and private care. The UK has the NHS for all, but if you got the dough re mi you can head to Harley Street for a consult or over to Princess Grace Hospital for some rock-star care along with the sheikhs of Arabia or the princes and princesses of Thailand. Top-quality care does not disappear in the face of single payer systems. After all ... Senator Rand Paul just went to a private clinic in single-payer Canada for his hernia operation. I rest my case.

I'd have more sympathy for Amazon if they were paying taxes instead of sucking on the public tits everywhere they want a physical presence.

JP Morgan: Because if you're going to print money, why not leave it to the experts.

and yet they still voted in a dumbass. studies can go fuck themselves in the ass.

Well, when the alternative is a corrupt, unlikeable, socialist, condescending harridan of a dumbass, as opposed to just an obnoxious loudmouth dumbass, I guess it's a good damn thing most of the dumbass voters are so concentrated that their choice lost in the Electoral College.

You know, there are a lot of wackademic studies that basically say "Republicans are mean" or "Conservatives are insecure". It's always something subjective and emotional.

You never see those studies done regarding intelligence.

Do you really think the leftist, "progressive" wackademics have NEVER looked at that?

But you never see any published studies on ideological bent vs. intelligence.

Wanna bet it's because the ones that did get done got shitcanned when the results were

DEMOCRATS ARE DUMB

or

LIBERALS ARE IGNORANT

or

PROGRESSIVES FAIL TO COMPREHEND CAUSE AND EFFECT

Either that, or you really think the wackademics behind shit like this NEVER tried to prove "conservatives are stupid". Because you KNOW they did - and since it's never been published, it must not be true.

Face it - you know it's true.

That's why liberals talk condescendingly to brown people.

White liberals dumb themselves down when they speak to black people

Yep, they do. So says the Washington Post.

Sheltered white "progressives" treat minorities as incompetent.

Conservatives treat them as equals.

Those subsidies were offered up by Democrats Andrew Cuomo and Bill De Blasio.

Jeff Bezos gives money to Democratic candidates, not Republicans.

Where are the "conservatives" in the story?

[Democrats'] willingness to shut down the government

They didn't shut down the government. They agreed with Republicans on $1.6 billion for border security. It was a done deal until Trump decided he wanted one last $5.7 billion campaign contribution from the public treasury.

Maybe he should offer more Presidential Medals of Freedom for anyone willing to donate $500,000 to the border wall!

The US is accusing China of state-sponsored hi-tech push, while the US pirates their policy. Another example of American hypocrisy.

Of course, fox news has lots more direct accusations.

Apple will comply with the local data storage law, ... Apple will apparently need to decrypt and produce user data for the country's security services as requested.

So they'll stand up to OUR government in 2016 (Apple won't decrypt a phone for the FBI Info link) but they'll lower their standards for foreign governments?

No matter which way you fall on this issue -- SHOULD have or should NOT have -- this is wrong.

If Apple is "The Angel of Privacy everywhere" then they should stand up for no decryption. If they take the stance "the local government makes the choice and we'll follow", then they should have decrypted the phone.

"But now the U.S. government has asked us for something we simply do not have, and something we consider too dangerous to create. They have asked us to build a backdoor to the iPhone." Link

So if other governments ask for it, it's OK? Expect weasel words soon: it's not OK, but they made us do it against our will. We couldn't sell there if we didn't do it. There's a chance it might be accessed, but think of all the good information they now have access to they didn't before.

I'm not a particular fan or enemy of Apple (they produce good products that don't meet my Bang for the Buck requirements) but you're actively doing things for our frenemies that you wouldn't do for our country??

Have you seen the deal that Wisconsin was going to give them at the expense of the taxpayers? No one was going to benefit from that arrangement except for Foxconn. They could have put all that money towards encouraging tech development in their state instead.

And even then it still wasn't enough to make it profitable.

The US needs to decide if it's a developed or developing nation. If you want to be a highly developed nation, then you need to stop thinking that cheap manufacturing is a good thing, it's not. You want your workforce so highly educated that they will want better jobs than screwing on toothpaste caps. You want industries that the developing world cannot compete with like high tech manufacturing, bio and nano tech and fields outside of manufacturing completely. What you don't want is to keep people in minimum wage manufacturing jobs.

Conspicuous by its absence in much of the mainstream news coverage of Venezuela’s political crisis is the word “socialism.” Yes, every sensible observer agrees that Latin America’s once-richest country, sitting atop the world’s largest proven oil reserves, is an economic basket case, a humanitarian disaster, and a dictatorship whose demise cannot come soon enough.

But socialist? Perish the thought.

Or so goes a line of argument that insists socialism’s good name shouldn’t be tarred by the results of experience. On Venezuela, what you’re likelier to read is that the crisis is the product of corruption, cronyism, populism, authoritarianism, resource-dependency, U.S. sanctions and trickery, even the residues of capitalism itself. Just don’t mention the S-word because, you know, it’s working really well in Denmark.

Curiously, that’s not how the Venezuelan regime’s admirers used to speak of “21st century socialism,” as it was dubbed by Hugo Chávez. The late Venezuelan president, said Britain’s Jeremy Corbyn, “showed us there is a different and a better way of doing things. It’s called socialism, it’s called social justice, and it’s something that Venezuela has made a big step toward.” Noam Chomsky was similarly enthusiastic when he praised Chávez in 2009. “What’s so exciting about at last visiting Venezuela,” the linguist said, is that “I can see how a better world is being created and can speak to the person who’s inspired it.”

What if there aren't sidewalks? In Columbia MD and nearby Ellicott City, there are entire neighborhoods without any sidewalks at all. I'm not talking trailer parks. These are upscale neighborhoods where the homes are worth $600K and up.

Trivia answer: actor Edward Norton is a grandson of James Rouse.

Someone at Slashdot seems to be pushing the "Russia supplied Wikileaks with the DNC hack info" theory as fact when it hasn't been proven.

It hasn't been proven to you. Do not presume to know what intelligence agencies know.

But the Russia theory is pushed above all because that's the one that fuels Democratic activist outrage and the "Russian collusion" fantasy

People aren't being indicted and convicted because it's a fantasy.

I don't think you're a Russian bot but I do think you are useful idiot.

Also noticed that you are just copypastaing your own site and call everything that doesn't agree with you a "hard-left outlet".

Trump can't pardon him until he's actually convicted of something.

Somehow President Ford managed to pardon former President Nixon before was even charged with a crime, let alone convicted.

You can not commute someone's sentence until they've been convicted and sentenced, perhaps you've confused the two?

For example, Bush'43 commuted Scooter Libby's sentence before he spent 30 months in jail.

Government breakdown: In 730 days, President Trump has made 8,158 false or misleading claims

Actually that's false. They made no such findings. Maybe you need to brush up your Fox News fact checking?
