  1. Re:So this means more jobs for American STEMs? on NSA Spying Hurts California's Business · · Score: 1

    The NSA gives zero sh!ts about hurting U.S. business, they just tickle to fed to print more money to insure their paychecks. Anyone note that fracking has made uninhabitable enough U.S. soil that can be compared with use of nuclear weapons? You'd think folks as nosy as NSA might have caught on to something like that, but zero phucks are afforded corporate terrorism.

  2. Re:Cobol is self-documenting on The Pentagon's Seven Million Lines of Cobol · · Score: 1

    In trying to replace the program, the Pentagon spent a billion dollars and wasn't successful.

    Translation: the pimps deployed highly effective counter measures to shock and awe the client, the result was a resounding victory of "extended" contracts!

    Either that or they started development long before anyone knew what a flowchart was. As for the 7 million lines of code, exactly how much of it is actually active? Or is this just the pentagon getting ready to ask for money again?

    That is the occasion we're celebrating today, right? Nope, we're celebrating independence from the crown and Great Britain, and we repeat the process annually to celebrate our current state of affairs and that amounts to be our government being little more than corporate generated spam for which there is no filter and you cannot ignore or deny, and when it screws up, it's the peoples fault.

  11. Re:Going to Russia for safety from the US. on Edward Snowden Leaves Hong Kong · · Score: 1

    Mr. Snowden did not expose it, people already knew what was going on. What he provided was the physical evidence of it, which is a means to combat the blank check issued for vaporware in the name of penis envy under the veil of security clearances policy, and they really don't like that sh!t. In hind sight, there appears to be a corporate hack on the rule of law, FED/OPEC/Patriot Act was the tip of the iceberg, where we are now is at the end of the ramblings of failed checks and balances. Good morning America, have a spoon of "you've been phucked" in your coffee next to that bowl of "cuz your paying for this", being they have by way of example condoned attacking the Bill of Rights, maybe we the people should petition to abolish taxes seeking relief for damages based upon involuntary servitude being that exposure of and the evidence of a clearly unconstitutional and illegal program was concealed from we the people (that already knew about it) under security clearance. As they say, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, so why is exposure of physical evidence of the program such a problem when the people (and undoubteldy the terrorists) already knew about it? Is it that it incriminates the people that violated the 4th and 13th amendments? What should be illegal is creating a framework of law that makes exposure of unlawful behavior illegal.

  13. Re:The system works as intended. on Officials Say NSA Probed Fewer Than 300 Numbers - Broke Plots In 20 Nations · · Score: 1

    What might happen, or what already has: 1. Declaration of war upon something other than a sovereign nation to justify unregulated spending in the name of oil field conquest. 2. Fear mongering to justify a surveillance state, and throwing pork to defense contractors/gangsters to build and run it. 3. Two to the chest on the economy, to try and correct the general direction economically, big loans from fed directly affecting national deficit (to which we as a people are all responsible for), and sellout to continue to fund this behind a classified trade agreement with China who have now begun to underwrite pretty much everything here. Exactly where should the treason charges be placed? To what extent should a government be tolerated waging an info war against it's own citizens at their expense? Every day that passes with this crap going on, the third round put to our own foot advances, because when the economy fails bud, at the end of this road we are on not even government paychecks are going to cash. The threat of terrorist attack has always been there, it is just more pronounced now through media coverage and fear mongering.

  14. Re:Beware of the next step on Snowden NSA Claims Partially Confirmed, Says Rep. Jerrold Nadler · · Score: 1

    Americans want their way of life back, the want their privacy, they want what is on paper to actually mean something (i.e. the constitution), they do not like the outcome of privatized prison structure, they do not like unregulated government spending, they do not believe actions of a secret court has the peoples best interests at heart as the concept of a court room is public record. Figure out what ended WWII, and either sh!t or get off the f'n pot.

    In Soviet Russia, one could expect these things in a communist regime, on occasion I suppose one would even pose for the set top box, but in the US, our economy is not compatible with fear mongering, shared intel between the military and judicial branches of gov't, unregulated gov't spending, war declared upon anything other than a sanctioned nation, hypocrisy or A.D.D. from our leadership, throwing pork to people then calling them terrorists. Such things could lead to a bill to dissolve and reform the U.S. Gov't or worse yet, civil war.

    Criminals use guns, politicians use laws, the two won't meet eye to eye but I'd say they have a lot in common, my belief is politicians killed more people in the end with failed diplomacy and resultant war. Trouble is normal folks use guns too, guns are a tool, it is people that kill people and if they don't use guns they'll just resort to something else, and it'd probably be worse.
