I can easily see that you have never had to split wood for an hour each day just to keep warm! Being one of those who has had to, I would like to find one of those "far away people refining/converting/combusting some manner of fossil fuels" and give them a big hug!!!
Some stupid geek gave me bad karma. I can only hope the feds are on their way to your place to arrest you for doing or saying something online which they saw as a threat. When they hit you with the tazer and haul your ass of to jail, remember my warning!
Has it not dawned on you that anything you say or do online, on the phone (wireless or wired), is being monitored by the government and their billionaire/corporate overseers? Sure, all these new ways to communicate are way cool, but, they come at a price........privacy! If you don't want to be tracked, use only cash for all purchases and never give your name. If you want to communicate anything sensitive to anyone, do it the way we used to......in private, face to face. Sure, you say, it should all be private, but, the corporations and the government have other ideas. There is no way that encryption, proxy servers, etc., etc. will ever make you safe from surveillance. I know, you think that lawsuits or protests will "make you free", but, in the new Dollarocracy, those in power will just laugh at you behind your back.
I'm sure the politicians in our current Dollarocracy will find a quasi-legal way of shuffling these funds into their private slush funds (Can you say Tahiti vacation!). If we don't find a way of getting big money out of our elections soon, the billionaires and corporations will soon be in total charge of our government. I'm sure they would think replacing food stamps with Solient Green is perfectly acceptable for their bottom lines!
If Antigua pursues this, the U.S. can first, issue a travel advisory to U.S. citizens wishing to travel there, second, ban all flights from the U.S. to Antigua, and third, ban any international flight that passes through the U.S. or any that stop in Antigua before traveling to the U.S. Personally, I don't believe gambling should be allowed on the internet at all. If all this fails to detour Antigua from cashing in on pirated U.S. movies, TV, books, etc., maybe we should just "liberate" all those poor souls living there and make them a U.S. protectorate! Then their internet gambling sites would be legal in the U.S. and they could rip off all the poor schmuck marks in the U.S. stupid enough to engage in gambling.
Do you really believe that France, Russia, China, etc., etc., aren't doing the same thing? Wake up folks! The whole world is spying on each and everyone of us. The solution is simple, just make sure anything you say or do online, on the phone, or whatever else that's public, is something you wouldn't mind your grandmother seeing. If you must do or say something that is not, do it in private, face to face, in a room that has not/can not be bugged.
The solution to the problem is for the government to place a small tax on every trade so the microsecond buy/ sell trades profits would be nullified. I believe this would restore some sense to the stock exchange.
I'm over 6'4". When I cram myself into an airline seat, my knees are already up against the seat in front of me. My solution if the person in front of me decides to recline their seat is to slam my hand into the back of the seat. This usually brings an apology and they move their seat back to the upright position. If they instead choose to confront me with scorn, I simply tell them that I will continue to slam my hand into the seatback every few minutes of the flight. They usually get the message when they see a huge old marine telling them this. When I first started flying airlines in the 1970's, this was not a problem since there was plenty of leg room. The airlines in their continued quest to cram as many people into a plane as possible, are the root of the problem. If the person in front of me complains to the stewardess/steward and they ask me to stop, I tell them to get me a seat that fits or f**k off. I believe if more tall people would use this tactic the airlines may be forced to have some rows of seats with actual leg room for us. Knowing the ways of the corporate airlines though, they will probably just start making people sign papers saying they won't complain about being squeezed into sardine cans!
Why not start an anti-bullying site where kids being bullied on the internet can just forward the abusive emails, tweets, Facebook comments, etc. Then, on the other end law enforcement officials can determine the degree of threat and contact the perps parents. If the parents don't respond and the offenses continue, then, the parents can face counseling along with their "bully" children.
This is all just media fluff on Brazil's part. They want to look super important to the world. Does anyone actually think the NSA actually gives a rat's ass about any possible secret Brazil may have? I believe what the NSA really wants is any info they can obtain on any terrorists who would use Brazil as a safe haven or transfer point to get to the U.S.
I want to report a book that is full of sex, lust, rape, incest, homosexual relationships, etc., etc. Why don't they ban this book? Its' title is the Bible!
Tell that to the poor kids who will have "crater faces" for the rest of their lives after a bad bout of chicken pox. A vaccination with periodic boosters would have been far more beneficial to them. I grew up long before chicken pox vaccine was even dreamed about. I have seen the life long scars on the face and body that it can leave. So, if I were you, I would be a bit careful when advising people..."Sure, go ahead and contract chicken pox"!!!
