If a medical practice and it's customers want to participate in the government system, they can do so and pay a fee to support it. Or, they can choose not to participate and they don't have to pay.
Make any government health care program optional. If you want to be a member, you can pay and be subject to the program's rules and regulations. If you don't want to be a member, you don't have to pay and aren't subject to the rules and regs.
If I am thinking of opening a business in California or another state, all other factors being equal, would I open it in a state where I can train employees in advanced methods only to have them bolt to a competitor and enrich them? No, I would choose the other state.
Sell public schools to the highest bidder (returning the proceeds to the local residents), and drastically cut local taxes so parents keep more of their money. The market would provide incredibly innovative and inexpensive education, just like any unregulated market. For example, if you had told people 3, 10, 20 years ago that with a few clicks of a mouse you could have a complete dual core computer delivered to your door in a few days for $350, they'd think it was a miracle. Just imagine what entrepenurial innovators would deliver for education.
So the do-gooders pass a law that criminalizes sending e-mail, wreck a guy's life, and 3 people end up dead. Congratulations to everyone who supported this spam law.
P.S. Yes, he put false header information in the e-mails. So? You want to make lying a crime?
I have Verizon Wireless, and if I connect to my voicemail, I have the option to record a message and have it sent to a phone number that I enter. I've used it from time to time. Not sure if I can send to a non-VZW number though.
Would you rather the US have: a) Jobs where things like iPods and iPhones are conceived from ingenuity, designed, and perfected (ie, the way things are now) OR b) Jobs where things like iPods and iPhones are assembled
The fact that our economy and employment are pretty strong proves that the trade deficit is meaningless.
Ugh, I hate how there has to be a federal government solution to everything. Since the states elect the president, senators, and representitives, the states should be the ones to handle election issues. When the feds do it, we get stuck with a one-size-fits-none, pork-laden, money-pit, lobbyist-attached "solution".
... when they post false-alarmist crap stories like this. Anyone who just views the snippet will now think that "conservatives are anti-sale".
Mfgers cannot "force" retailers to do anything! They can set a condition like a price floor, and a retailer can either carry the product or not carry the product.
If Slashdot leaned right (instead of left as the posting of this story implies) I would expect to see the headline, "SCOTUS Case Legalizes Killing Of Black Kids" for the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision.

Senators used to be appointed by the state government, but the 17th changed all that, for the worse. Now in there more populism/mob-ocracy, and less states rights, local control, and freedom.

Like the "Explicit Lyrics" warning sticker on music, it will probably increase sales.

If you aren't sure of something or don't like it, DON'T BUY IT.
We don't need government agents deciding how things should work. The last thing we need is a federal usage rights management agency.
Who Pays?
Who pays?
Whether you use it or not, you will pay for it via taxes, debt, or inflation.

Thank you.

This idiocy is just what all you Democrats (and many Republicans) deserve.

Ever heard of the Tenth Amendment, Ted? Just goes to show that the GOP is no longer the party of smaller constitutional government.
Have the gov't lay broadband --> Extract money from citizens at gunpoint to pay for broadband.
Have the gov't fund stem cell research --> Extract money from citizens at gunpoint to pay for stem cell research.
Et cetera.
That's what it is.
Thus, I will not be voting for Obama because he is advocating mass violence against the American people.
I will be voting for Ron Paul.
And stop complaining. If you don't like DRM, then start your own movie distribution company and don't use DRM. Good luck signing major studios, BTW.
