I am an expat and miss my homeland. I left because of the noise, the division of neighbors, the constant cacophony among brothers who can't appreciate what they have or had. The fear there is no doubt cancerous.
I guess all you can do is be a good neighbor; start small.
Give me some evidence the CIA or the NSA are attempting to control anything about internal American politics, control people's lives, the outcomes of political processes or even innocent individuals lives or even anything like business outcomes. Because without that you have no case that they are a nefarious force in our lives. They are not breaking any law-. If you don't like it, repeal the Patriot Act.
Neither has it been an equal share of responsibility. Truman is a bit of an exception; easily influenced and obstinate politician who handled the burden of unexpected presidency with arrogance, belligerence, and incompetence. He is a bizarre story as he was never supposed to be vice president; Wallace had more popularity than even FDR at the time. Anyway, Truman isn't a great example in this context; but he is a great example of a politician created and propped-up by the economical elites.
We find it "funny" that you think Republicans don't own the lion's share of responsibility here. Especially when you quote a president who expanded government and wrote the narrative of "war on terrorism". So please, stop with the "small government" rhetoric.
In actuality, what you see here are agencies that primarily Republicans (i.e. Hoover, Reagan, Bush x2) have erected, and whose powers can't be curtailed without executive and congressional cooperative interference. These agencies function independently; that is what's most frightening. No matter of the president elect, he has no implied oversight or control.

Your practical expression of liberty can be limited by your means, or by the infringement of a non-government entity, just as much as it can be limited by rule of law. Libertarian socialism seeks to enhance your practical liberty, not just your theoretical liberty, by using good laws to protect the people and their means of expressing liberty from exploitation and by removing the bad laws that can be exploited by both government and plutocrats to harm you and your means of expressing your liberty.
The power is limited by rejecting commercial propertarianism. This principle doesn't restrict your freedom to be an entrepreneur and is not counter to personal propertarianism. This is the common school of thought and an accepted method to restrict economic (i.e. power) elitism.
If by being an "entrepreneur", you mean to dictate a state's natural resource, then no. That is socially owned and social wealth. With libertarian-socialism, you would not see "entrepreneurs" opening a mine, rigging markets, monopolizing, all the while paying a slave-wage to miners.
If you are really interested, there are many philosophies of libertarianism. Wikipedia is a good start. They all focus on individual freedom, but the current "libertarianism" we see today is counter to the core philosophies, it is *very* new and vague, and it undermines individual freedom by rejecting individual ownership of labor in favor of wage-slavery. In practice, it can be compared to corporatism. Free markets erect power greater than the state and the individual. That power is always abused. If you think lobbying is a problem in government, then you are not aware of corporations strong-arming states to get their own laws passed.
It's depressing that there is no regulation before a debate can be invoked. My primary concern is that these GMO strains can become predatory and impact native, local ecologies long after companies like Monsanto are dead.
It also takes about two weeks on average to adjust to any setting.
You will need an apartment or office space that offers short-term accommodations. It is the only way you are going to study and/or meet deadlines (client's or your own). Bunking in hostels can be fun for a week or two, but the commotion will leave you struggling to get things done. Don't fight the flow; have fun and meet people, search for somewhere to settle, and then get to work. On your downtime, you can then meet your new comrades for drinks, parties, theater, museums, hiking, sailing, diving, whatever. You will quickly be introduced to new social settings and more people. Repeat and be flexible to changes. First and foremost, be open.
That's your problem. You are pretty much guaranteed a degree of incompetence, negligence, and corruption when you subsidize public transportation. I have lived in over 15 major cities and the those with stellar, clean, and reliable transportation were 100% privatized.
I was aiming for a funny hygiene joke but I think I picked the wrong audience(s). You know, maybe there's a happy ending:/. neckbeard meets bearded lady.... with four nipples and a tailbone.
Living things exist because they inherited what it takes to exist from their ancestors. The ones that didn't have what it took to stay in existence...didn't.
*You* shouldn't lecture people on issues *you* know nothing about.
Slavery was banned in 1829 by amending the constitution. In 1835, the constitution was replaced by Santa Ana with, as I had mentioned before, the Siete Leyes. The new constitution sparked the revolutions and further enslaved the indigenous people; striking them of citizenship and property.
Wow. You couldn't be further from the truth. Texans revolted because Santa Anna enacted Siete Leyes which extended slavery and allowed the federal government to suppress the power of Congress and the Supreme Court, returning Mexico to a dictatorship.
However, it was the Mexican Government and not the U.S. General Sam Houston of the Republic of Texas who captured and defeated President Santa Ana with only 900 men. Santa Ana was then forced to sign the Treaties of Velasco. Afterwards, The Republic of Texas was internationally recognized as a sovereign state until it was to be annexed by the United States of America. The annexation of Texas started the Mexican-American war.
General Houston of the Republic of Texas captured Mexican President Santa Ana in the Battle of San Jacinto. Yes, I understand it was the Meixcan Government, but it's worthy of a mention.

Johnsongrass is a good example. Except, since this wheat is GMO, it'll be a lot harder to control.
At face value, I would favor regulation only allowing GMOs to be grown within a dome.
This sounds very much like Launchpad on OSX. It appears as an overlay and its usage is entirely voluntary.

Sorry, slow morning, I meant public sector.

anybody with any ambitions leaves.
FTFY. They may need brains and talent to succeed, but not to leave.
Or they all died from rickets and cheese puff poisoning.
Wow. You couldn't be further from the truth. Texans revolted because Santa Anna enacted Siete Leyes which extended slavery and allowed the federal government to suppress the power of Congress and the Supreme Court, returning Mexico to a dictatorship.
Texas was not alone in their revolt. Almost every Mexican State rebelled. Some of these states formed their own governments: Republic of Texas, was The Republic of the Rio Grande and the The Republic of Yucatan. The Republic of Texas was the only state to succeed.
Slavery in Mexico was not abolished until Benito Juarez and Maximillian were in power.
Yes.
However, it was the Mexican Government and not the U.S. General Sam Houston of the Republic of Texas who captured and defeated President Santa Ana with only 900 men.
