And the government will provide it to those who do not have it. Do you really think my employer will keep paying $800/mo for my insurance rather than dropping it and letting the government pay for it?
I wish. In the city I live in, it is no longer an option to buy a house in a nice area and send your kids to the school in that area, with all the other kids whose families value education. It used to be like that, but then they started busing the kids from the good schools to the failing ones, and kids from the failing ones to the good schools. Schools are selected by lottery. The good schools got worse. The bad ones got no better. The extra busing increases transportation costs, emissions, and traffic congestion.
I have a solution that problem. If you fail your classes in the school that has to take you, you don't go to summer school. You work on a farm for the summer. Up at 5:30, work until sunset. Eat grits and gruel. Bet you'll try harder next year.
Split the country into three countries: Kurdistan, Sunni-Iraq, and Shiite-Iraq. Promise that at the end of each year, the US will give to each government enough money such that the per-capita government revenue of the three countries is identical. Leave.
Would this be cheaper than the current military expenditure?
After all, a woman abused or denied universal rights in Iran is the same as in New Jersey, right? Your response should be the same as if it were occurring in New Jersey.
The response of the US government should not be the same. Because the US government does not have any authority to respond in Iran.
What is your response in the US? To say "Gee, that is too bad, I feel awful." and then go back to your life? In that case, your response should be the same.
If your response is to work towards your country giving rights to women in your country, great. But you do not have any authority to do so in Iran.
When my internet connection goes down and a customer calls me for an unrelated issue, I can still access all of my files related to the customer on the intranet.
The USPS is not a good analogy for one of the concerns:
I pay my ISP to send data. My ISP pays its upstream providers to send data. Company X, who is not a customer of or a vendor to my ISP wants to pay my ISP to prioritize their traffic, of which Company X is not the sender nor receiver (which are myself and my ISP's upstream providers) of the data.
The best analogy I can think of would be Levi's paying the USPS to prioritize mail from me to Sears Roebuck to order Levi's jeans, at the expense of orders to Lee jeans. The obvious difference is that my ISP can see from the outside of the package that it is for Company X and the USPS would have to look inside, but that is not the issue.
Situations in which both Company X and I are customers of the same ISP are different, I am not addressing that issue here.

Exactly what change is Obama about?
The only change I see is his wanting to have the federal government, which fucks up everything it touches, provide my health insurance.
Is there anything else?

(No, I'm not serious.)
The problem is not that the mission was not accomplished, the problem is that nobody knows what the mission was.

He would sell you anyth.ing for $100, whereas .anything would cost you $185,000.
"Under President Clinton the growth in debt ceased, but note the radical change in direction since George W. Bush entered office"
I notice that the radical change in direction started while Clinton was still in office.
Should we also mention that Congress, not the President, makes the budget.
Adjust it for inflation and see what it looks like.
Yeah. Stop impeding my work on perpetual motion!

To calculate the hash values they had to read the contents of the drive. That is a search of a person's effects without a warrant.
And they vote.
Do you care if the ISP/host computer is outside of the jurisdiction of your government?
The only way to ensure your vote is registered properly is to give up your right to vote anonymously.
Fantastic.
If they can (have the ability to) disable arbitrary applications, then they can do it on a whim. The issue is ability, not intent.
Security rule #1: don't trust the client.
The fourth amendment says "the people", not "citizens".
The 14th does not claim to remove rights granted by the first 10.

Please show me where in the Constitution it says that the Bill of Rights only apply to citizens.

Get the kid a car that you can show off, but not with speed. Like a VW bus.

Let the people who made bad decisions reap what they sowed.
I've also given my children a list. You are wise to post AC.
