Something I have never understood about the internet.If you download pirate bay music, you can be fined pretty heavily. If however your a giant corporation like Google with youtube, you are not doing anything wrong by displaying works of artist without recompense. The tracking of you through "cookies" is legal, but you tracking someone with a key logger is not. Essentially both actions end up with the same results. Google also reads your email. You have no privacy anymore. But if I decide to track somebody's digital life I'm guilty of a crime. If A big corporation does it no harm no foul. It would be interesting for a person to see what a Giant corporation like Google has on you and who they are sharing it with.There should be a requirement that somebody like Google has to share that information with you once a year like a credit report. It should also be required by law. It should be put into the bill of rights.I know some of you might think my approach here is a little simplistic, but there does seem to be a double standard here when it comes to digital rights, privacy and individual rights verses a corporation. If a corporation has rights to free speech, it should also have responsibilities as the individual does to respecting other peoples properties and privacy as well. As Mitt Romney says "Corporations are people too."
The ball joints were probably sourced from china. I have collector cars and this has been going on in this area as well. If Tesla would use Moog ball joints instead of lowest bidder they might have better results. That is what we found to cure early failure. Ball joints should last 100,000 miles easily if they are quality and your not hitting every pot hole in town every day. Recent conversion to the chinese market for this item has magnified issues of ball joints not lasting as long. I have been told by the local big box appliance store not to expect anymore than 8 years out of any major appliance you buy. That way we can squeeze more buying into your life span. After all we are the carcass everybody else feeds on. On any major purchase source the forum for that particular item.It might cut down on the jackals feeding on your money for a few years. It will alert you to the issues with that particular item.
Apparently Charles and David Koch have abandoned their favorite son. They could pay his debts out of petty cash. But they won't. Kind of reminds you of those two old goats in the movie trading places doesn't it?
Since we are actually comparing programs, ie power plant verses aircraft program. You Brits have got a lot to learn about wasting money. The F-35 is 1.5 trillion and climbing.[unlike the plane itself] We have the leadership in stupidity and God willing we aim to keep it.The program is so big that it will take a forest of money just to pay for it.

This kind of falls into the same category with the fake cell towers does it not?
