I am not shocked. While I'm glad he won (considering the terrifying alernative), any happy illusions I had about Obama went out the window when he voted (while still in the Senate) to give AT&T a free pass for willingly breaking the law when asked to by the NSA. He chose the issue over what was right and continues to do so on virtually every other issue as well. The decline and fall continues apace.
huge reservoirs of cheap, highly skilled engineers
Please keep in mind that China (along with other countries such as the UK) allow just about everyone this side of toaster oven repairmen to called 'engineers'. Yes, most of the Engineering grad students at my US alma mater were Chinese, but I think that's why they were in the US, not back home.
The devout village elders with buckles on their hats and scarlett letters at the ready will prevent the free distribution of anything relating to (shudder) sexuality.
S/he who controls the database, controls the outcome. E-voting should not be allowed for anything more important than vacuous tv talent shows - and even those outcomes are corrupt.
Illegal immigrants will have beautifully forged cardsto use just long enough to gain entry or employ, while law-abidiing US citizens asked for their cards by the autorities (read: anyone not white) will be brutalized by a half-complete system built on the cheap and populated with error-riddled data input by ambivilent and clueless mouth-breathers with a guaranteed employment gig.
I'm not sure I really want an essentially Parliamentarian system, where someone in a six-party coalition gets in a snit and boom: the government falls apart. But you are so very right when it comes to the subject of IP and the Content Lords: both Red and Blue partys are the same color - servile corporate yellow.
Whoever decided this policy will either be rolling into work in a new car, taking a very expensive summer vacation, or soon will be 'golden parachuting' into a well-compensated consultancy gig for a front company indirectly owned by a certain corporation located in the Pacific Northwest.

Apple will sue Logitech next.
is deer-seeking missles - merely for force protection measures, mind you.
That sentence also explains why the MAFIAA is drafting ACTA - using spineless politicians (inlcuding the US Prez) as false fronts.
So how commonplace is cancer in newts (seriously)?
It is now, at least.
Somebody's never watched The Green Mile.
For the same reason that paperless electronic voting is a seriously bad idea; s/he who controls the database controls your ass.
You're welcome for all the ships and planes, too.

Purple and orange go together sublimely, like crème brulée and gravel.
So was 1984 and yet they're using it as an instruction manual.
