Journalists' Yahoo E-Mail Accounts Compromised In China
andy1307 writes "According to this article in the New York Times, 'In what appears to be a coordinated assault, the e-mail accounts of at least a dozen rights activists, academics and journalists who cover China have been compromised by unknown intruders. The infiltrations, which involved Yahoo e-mail accounts, appeared to be aimed at people who write about China and Taiwan, rendering their accounts inaccessible, according to those who were affected. In the case of this reporter, hackers altered e-mail settings so that all correspondence was surreptitiously forwarded to another e-mail address. ... The victims of the most recent intrusions included a law professor in the United States, an analyst who writes about China's security apparatus and several print journalists based in Beijing and Taipei, the capital of Taiwan."

For me the only good spot is somewhere in the middle, accepting social needs and human motivation.
Let's take the U.S.'s newly socialized health care system for example: What it basically says is, "Dear Doctors, despite your dedication and persistence to the craft of medicine, you will not be allowed to practice the way you see fit. Your decade of training, continued education and superior skill set obtained will not be rewarded based on what the market will bear. In fact, you will be told how to do your job. We will regulate your salary because your time isn't yours, it's ours. Your time isn't your, it's ours. Let me repeat this so we're very clear -- your time isn't yours, we own you. Don't you dare call this slavery because it is not. Your time is ours. You will do what we say and you will be paid what we suggest. That agreement you had with John Doe to replace his organ? He may have agreed to your price but we don't. You will replace that person's organ at a price we set. Your time is NOT yours anymore. Good day to you Sir. We appreciate your service even if you think you know medicine better then us."
We live in a state that rewards bad behavior and punishes success. This is how empires fall.
