ISPs can drop encrypted packages if they want, and the government can tell them which ones to let through to make business happy. We have to pry the market open and have the ISP declared a public utility. There is no other way. All the high tech in the world cannot circumvent that single point of failure yet.
The thing is that the Wall Street money is now sitting in a computer directory called "excess reserves", so it can be sprung for this immediately, and any other issue right now, like. for instance, the 'drought' in the central valley, it's 4 fucking trillion dollars being shuttered away for speculation and manipulation of the currency markets.
God forbid that Wall Street cough up any of that free government money it got over the last 6 years.. No, no, we should never demand that. That would be communism!
Wait a minute... Wouldn't they have known the pressure differential across various parts when they designed the dam? And like one of the above replies, the numbers mean little by themselves. You have to put bluetooth electrodes on the salmon's tiny little brain to see what he thinks about the dam while going through it and trying not being turned into chum.
If you can use a sextant, you got it made. I don't know anybody who ever got lost pre-GPS. Unfortunately, the damn thing can't predict the weather. All you can do is record what happened, the rest was guesswork. That's where electronics made the difference. Now we can see over the horizon. Hurricanes aren't a surprise anymore.
Faithful, yes, but if he didn't know how to navigate, how 'true' can they be? Eh, not to worry, chances are nobody would ever find those logs anyway, if you get my drift...
We would be a lot better off if we had more liberal Democrats...
Yes, well, the fact is 98%, and in the house, 100% of the voters disagree. You have authoritarian democrats because they win elections. And the republicans, well, hey, they fell off the truck in '68 (really just after '64), but they still win... People are authoritarian, and if they think they have power, they will abuse it, just like those who actually do, and they vote likewise. The numbers are there in black and white.
That's right... Everybody should just relax. The emperor has been castrated, and the rule of law will once again return to this great land of ours. We took back America! All Hail! Ted Cruz/Pat Robertson 2016!
Rubbish! You just have to do your own 'Gerrymandering' and make new friends. I'm talking about going out and meeting them, not just make a request on facebook. Again, don't blame the system that *you* made and support. Nobody is forcing you to work it that way.
Then the people who decide to live there should consider congress as the 'city council', so to speak, and live under their rules, because it appears that the 'independence' of the residential areas is entirely ceremonial.
Look, it's only as difficult as you make it, Learn to accept the things you cannot control, like other people and the laws of nature than govern all of us. 'Live and let live' is a fairly new concept in the savage world of 'fight, eat, fuck, sleep'. All the issues you bring up need to have their underlying cause addressed. The issues themselves are only symptoms, which can be treated in the meantime, by the way. But that does not have to distract anybody from the primary mission in any way. Doing the 'easy' stuff is not at the expense of doing the other. It is not zero sum. Nothing with man ever is. We always get out more than we put in.
I should add that between democrats and republican, it makes no difference. So please, save it for somebody who believes that shit. The only thing to lament is that there are NO independents in the House and only two in the senate, and that reelection rates remain steady.
This is exactly the root of the problem, not that the man was extremely offensive, but that people believe what he said. If we only would address the issue from this angle, these people can chatter on as insistently as they like and will be nothing but background noise.
DC was never meant to be a place to live, it is supposed to be a giant industrial/office park, where people go to work... As far as DC is concerned now, congress has no business regulating anything outside the capitol building. But, that's life. Not enough people agree on what to do about it, so they just keep on doing what they're doing.
I'm just saying get the easy stuff out of the way first, even if it appears 'trivial' to you. Besides the added momentum will only help on the big issues.
Not bloody likely... The weed thing is very good, but a real dent won't be made until the reelection rates can be reduced to near zero. Note that there are 0(!) independents in the House, none, the opposite of infinite. You have to fix that if you really want 'change'.
And I am aroused by the fantasy that all those republican victories were a negative response to the NSA and is going to revive the civil rights movement.
You know, our teachers used to tell us when taking an exam, to jump around and answer all the easy questions first. You'll have a better chance of passing even if you only get a few difficult ones.
So, since we aren't addressing the 'Much Bigger Problems' (Damn! I need a drooling sarcasm font for that!) anyway, let's go ahead and fix all the little ones. You still come out ahead that way.
And despite your 'lack of empathy', I sincerely hope you never become part of 'some small fraction of people'. I can assure you it doesn't feel so 'small' when it equals one.

Open markets. No monopolies. Problem solved...
Be careful for what you wish for, please. I'm worried those "flags" might be doing something inappropriate.
Nothing left over after that last order for ammo.

Can't get much power without it.

Perfectly acceptable...

Pay attention to your elected officials.
I believe such things should be said before election day. Read the results and weep...
It's important to find out who the 'traitors' are that stole the ring and voted republican...
...was taken seriously.

Eh, why should they? They don't put any opposition candidates on the ballot to vote for.
A warm toilet seat in the morning. Be smart enough to let the spouse use it first.
