  6. Re:Yeah, the nerve. on Senators To Unveil the 'Ex-Patriot Act' To Respond To Facebook's Saverin · · Score: 1

    Who puts Saverin's house out when it is burning out of control?
    >> That would be the local fire department. That is usually funded by local government with sales taxes and property taxes.

    Who paves the roads and repairs the bridges that Saverin's luxury cars utilize every day?
    > Again local roads are paid for with sales taxes and property taxes. Many states have a fuel tax and there is also federal fuel taxes. The Federal govt. does the Highway stuff (mostly)

    Who delivers the mail that Saverin relies on for his business and home operations?
    >>USPS is going vastly underwater and saddled with pension debt. This has mainly happened due to the internet and unions. Should Saverin subsidize that operation? I bet Facebook uses a lot of FexEx and UPS. They are private operations.

    Who manages the pipes and treatment of the shit that Saverin dumps down his toilets every day?
    >>Again local taxes

    Who patrols the streets that Saverin lives and works on, protecting him from crime?
    >Again local taxes

    Who watches and protects the nation of America when terrorists and other countries seek to destroy Saverin's way of life, property, and business interests?

    >>That is all levels of government, local, state and federal.

    So how much is fair in your mind that he should pay to Feds for all of the stuff above? How much should he pay for National Public Radio if he doesn't listen? How much should he pay for Senate Junkets: http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/senators-chinese-junket-is-shrouded-in-secrecy/2011/04/19/AFhndp7D_story.html?

    No, it is different. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schenck_v._United_States

    "The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic. [...] The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent.[2]"

    Seems to work ok in Caracas, Havana, Damascus, Cairo, Republic of Geogia,. Moscow, and Tiananmen Square. I think the government of every repressive dictatorship should be able to disrupt free speech, and public assembly. What's wrong with that?
