    I regret buying an iphone and wish I had bought an Android Phone. It has become glaringly obvious that you just get a lot more for your money in comparison (including phone features and programs).

  12. Re:Frequent Traveler Votes "BFD" on Court Approves TSA Body Scans, But Calls For Public Comment · · Score: 1

    how about people scared of being out in the real world just stay home instead of violating everyone's Constitutional Rights. And it would be easy to just bomb the tsa screening line. Actually, the tsa have created a very high value target with this hand waving screening that does not prevent anything.

  13. always opt out of the scan on Court Approves TSA Body Scans, But Calls For Public Comment · · Score: 2

    it makes the tsa's job more miserable and never under estimate getting something changed because the people that do it are made miserable.

  15. Re:Why bother protecting airplanes? on TSA Announces Pilot of Trusted Traveler Program · · Score: 1

    this appears to really be about the company that makes the naked scanners making money, but it looks like this stupid tsa pretend security is actually costing the airlines money so they are trying to do something for the people that spend the most. Of course the tsa solution is even dumber.

    4. it is a burden to individual US Citizens and this effort should instead be refocused to get corporations to stop receiving corporate welfare.

  20. this is a screw the little guy argument on Slate: Amazon's Tax Stance Unfair and Unethical · · Score: 1

    The US gives huge subsidies to Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Ag and a host of other businesses that should not get any government corporate welfare. The real attack on Amazon is that sales tax would be a burden of individuals. So instead of crapping on the economy even more and making things unaffordable to buy online for working US Citizens these people should be going after the huge unnecessary corporate welfare of companies like exxon and montsanto. Fox news actually received $5 billion from the US even though they made $10 billion in profits. Corporations need to pay their fair share of taxes and they aren't.

    murdoch is losing his grip, this is a major blow to him and will probably spread to his other businesses. If you think that only the news of the world is doing this in news corp you are crazy. I bet fox news is next for a scandal like this.
