Yup, the same Washington Post which ran columns for many years by Joseph Alsop, without ever mentioning his cousin was Kermit Roosevelt, a high-level CIA dood. And the same Washington Post which ran columns for many years by Cleveland Amory, without mentioning that his brother was a deputy director at the CIA. Yes, and the same Washington Post owned by Katherine Meyer Graham the daughter of a former Federal Reserve chairman, and the wife of a former guy who worked for Allen Dulles in the OSS during WWII.
The same WaPo now headed by Bob Woodward, the guy who never really gave us Deep Throat.
It's a small world after all......
The item they didn't mention, since they are not doing any factual supposition as I do, is that every player in Sweden involved with attempting to extradite Assange is financially involved/linked to the Swedish media mogul family (the Rupert Murdochs of Sweden), the Bonnier family.
Good and bad points, Andro. Plenty of felons get jobs, just a few years back a friend of mine (around 2004 or 2005) applied to the TSA along with thousands of others on the same day at the same location, and he was rejected within 15 minutes of filling out the paperwork (the time stamp on the rejection email they sent him). Several years later he reads in the newspaper that the four convicted felons they had hired that day (among thousands who had applied) were being sent back to jail for pilfering luggage.
I recall reading awhile back how a level 3 sex offender was getting out of jail and within 3 days he had a job?
A criminal with an educated is simply a better educated criminal. When the super-rich criminals achieve such wealth, they hire PR firms to change their labels from robber barons to philanthropists --- but the reality stays the same!
In a different context, in a different time, that might make some sense, but with the exponential increase in jobs offshoring (and for a beautiful and pithy example of this, read p. 139 of The Billionaire's Apprentic to capture the essence of Gupta and Diana Farrell at McKinsey & Company and McKinsey Global) and insourcing of foreign visa scab workers, the post is really both nebulous and arbitrary, in both the real and economic sense. It really will increase the crime, as criminals will break the law regardless of whatever level they exist --- you should have learned that by now, sonny!
Brilliant and logical and moral and ethical comments, 140!
And of course, if one wishes crime to increase, at all levels, this is the way! (And this has been proven again and again and again.)
In Washington state, specifically Seattle and the Puget Sound region, crime has increased in direct proportion to a specific action taken by two previous governors, Gary Locke, and Christine Gregroire, who both signed onto the interstate compact, brining 3 out of 4 parolees (ex-cons) to Seattle and outlying areas. The more people with criminal pasts (and they don't differentiate as to their crimes), the more likely crime will increase, which was their plan.
You always increase crime by increasing the population of criminals, what could be more logically concise? And since we now exist in a completely fraud-based society, with the super-criminals/psychopaths at the top, the criminals will have the advantage at all levels!
There are some excellent points in this blog post, yet we should never forget the last progressive administration (the Kennedy administration) was responsible for initiating the NSA/moon project, and the Internet, and many, many other items (Peace Corps, US Navy SEAL program, etc.) many of which were severely compromised after the murder of President Kennedy.
About the only thing which didn't come out (including incrementally) of the space program was Velcro (invented in 1948 by a Swiss engineer, George Mestral), which the mindless American CorporateMedia is forever claiming did originate from the space program (although those whorescum somehow miss out on all the other innovations which derived from it such as advances in digital electronics, computer technology, satellite communications tech, earth resources remoting sensing, biomedical engineering, polymer chemistry, materials science, etc., etc.,etc.
Interesting to keep in mind, that when this was initiated (2006), Angela Merkel had just pushed for the successful change in Germany's laws pertaining to private equity/leveraged buyouts (which had lowered Denmark's national tax revenues by an estimated 10% due to the LBO of Denmark's major telecom firm, TDC), and later, around 2008 or thereabouts, would push for the ending of naked swaps, the economic weapon of mass destruction which the US Treasury department is permanently enamored with. The timeline is important and cogent to this discussion because, as always, one should follow the money.

I believe Schneier is honest and credible, my only beef with him is that, like too many in the IT industry in general, with superior talents and skills and intelligence, he is somewhat gullible or less than informed of the underlying agendas of they who rule. (An example: his taking seriously the TSA stuff --- when obviously it has nothing to do with keeping Americans safe, just at the American intelligence establishment has never had anything to do with national security, simply garnering financial intelligence for their super-rich founders, and command and control of the populace by various and sundry means.
Exactly, ever hear of Intellius? Begun by a former Indian H-1B from Microsoft, sued numerous times for financial fraud, and the former CEO of Intellius was convicted and jail for the crime of baby raping (while CEO).

Evidently, some organizations prefer felons.
Well stated, sir, and the post presupposes that the majority of poor people are criminals, not simply among the most exploited.
Correction: that should read "A criminal with an education..."

Agreed! (Because everything has been privatized, including any and all accountability......)

No, we need to educate all the idiots out there who cannot even begin to grasp the situation in its entirety.

Ah, why does a global banking cartel exist? Next question. . . . . .
