doing that without access to the OS would be either quite a trick or a huge mess of wires running to every USB header on the board and even that would not work if a ps/2 keyboard was used
software keyloggers will not work if you use full disk encryption and hardware keyloggers require that they correctly guess which keyboard you are using (if you are paranoid enough about the government getting into your computer you should have a usb keyboard hidden somewhere and not actually use the one on your desk to log in

capitalism is inherently corrupt and needs to be destroyed for anyone to be free.
capitalism is not the same as free enterprise.
capitalism is when the government creates special objects we call corporations which are not subject to the same laws as everyone else.
if a person breaks the law or behaves recklessly and ends up owing money they have to pay it or they have to convince a bankruptcy judge to discharge the debt if they really don't have the money to pay it, if that happens their bankruptcy still follows them personally and they cannot declare bankruptcy again for a certain amount of time, if a corporation ends up owing more than it is worth because it behaved recklessly it can simply fold with the stock holders risking nothing above their investment, the investors can immidiately re-engage in the same risky behavior with a new corporation and, when it goes bad, fold again and repeat.
wall street corporations have been allowed to create various "derivatives" which, when sold to people not engaging in the market these derivatives cover are nothing more than gambling, however they are not looked at as gambling under the law as they should be.
I risk getting arrested if i were to bet $1000 that the superbowl was going to be Ravens vs Giants and the Giants would win by at least 7 points, but it's ok for a day trader or HFT firm to bet a hundred million that oil will get more expensive over the next month, despite that firm not actually engaging in business which is dependant on the price of oil (it would be totally different for, as an example, a plastics manufacturing firm to buy a hundred million in oil futures that they expect to take delivery on, as they are hedging for the sake of their own operations)
i agree, the solution to wall street and the big banks grenading the economy like an overrevved engine is clearly more deregulation. if that does not work, use more deregulation, and cut taxes even lower on the highest brackets. it will be wealth trickling down this time, definitely not piss again.
You overestimate americans. This is a country with significant opposition to HPV vaccination of youths because it removes a significant danger of premarital sex, a country with a significant religious minority who believes homosexuals 'deserve' HIV
i doubt it will be all that painful, beheading is a rather painless way to go compared to alternatives, and a well designed guillotine does not make mistakes
i played that pile of shit they called a game (civony after it got it's new name) and it was even more blatant about being nothing buta cash mill. at first they just offered to let you buy out of the wait times for buildings like any other facebook cash mill^H^H^H^H^HGame but after you get to tier 10 or so you have to buy stuff to build your facilities to higher level, or wait for extremely rare item drops.
and as this is a multiplayer combat game you really had to buy or you would get colonized by players who had bought in. i stopped logging in instead, because it was a shit game anyways not worth the buck or two to keep playing.
contrast this with ogame previously and world of tanks currently, which i fairly often pay in both to get the useful but not over powered or at all mandatory upgrades and because i do want to support "free" games that i enjoy
it's not just the game mechanics, it's the pacing of the game, the timing, and the theme. it came out when there was demand for a good mobile game, it was easy enough for novices but with the stars it can be played a little harder core if desired, and it's cute theme attracted people who would never consider a "blow up the barricaded terrorists" game with exactly the same mechanics except with cannon balls, bolas, rockets, and hand grenades
ban all contributions of cash to a politician corporate or individual.
money is not speech, this is evident in that we don't put "speech" into our wallets
if people want to contribute to a cause they believe in they can donate their time, every american gets 24 hours every day, and 7 days every week, how we spend our time is our own choice
having more money, or being in a position to influence an organization which controls more money, is no justification for giving someone a greater voice
in addition, corporations are not people and do not have rights, any rights. they do not have the right to use their time or assets to influence politicians or public opinion of politicians.
keep corporations terrified of attempting to involve themselves in the political process with aggressive revocation of corporate charters and arrests for bribery of executives who directed corporate resources to be used for politics, also allow shareholder lawsuits against executives and directors for compensation and recoupment of misappropriated funds or resources such as employees paid to accomplish political goals.
There is little point arguing with AGW deniers, the science is in, refusing to believe it at this point is a matter of not wanting to feel guilty about personal consumption and/or about sticking it to the 'libs'. It is impossible to reason someone out of a position which the did not use reason to get themselves to.

I would not be opposed tim implimenting both changes, tax as unearned income, but first index to inflation before calculating tax
As for OWS... You *do* realize there are Neo-Nazis with "assault weapons" in Phoenix with OWS right now, right?
[citation needed]
so the solution is to apply further deregulation and tax cuts?

no, just not allowing capitalists to take even more advantage of stupid people
quantum computers are limited to their native bit width (you can't use a 4 bit QC to do work in 8 bit space in just twice the time.
software keyloggers will not work if you use full disk encryption and hardware keyloggers require that they correctly guess which keyboard you are using (if you are paranoid enough about the government getting into your computer you should have a usb keyboard hidden somewhere and not actually use the one on your desk to log in
if you want to deliberately fail that is your choice.
the outer volume should include things like your online banking passwords and some gay porn (if you are not openly gay) and tax records
I would hope there is a crypto signature check before the system loads the new firmware

which peaceful teabaggers? the ones marching with AR-15's on their backs or the ones with signs saying "we came unarmed this time"
the tea party was founded because racist conservatives were pissed that there was a black man in the white house.

capital gains are NOT double taxed, you would be thinking of taxes on dividends.
capital gains should, if anything, be taxed as unearned income
