As soon as the subsidies for nuclear power are removed the industry will die. Nuclear power exist only because of the welfare money they receive, the industry could not and would not support itself. The technology was invented by the government and even the insurance offered to nuclear power companies is provided for by the government. Some commie pinko must have though that one up.

How about the parts of America where there is precious little snow and hardly any hills? Well if you look around there now all you'll see is Arab fueled gas guzzlers. America has a huge problem from relying on foreign fuel and an even bigger problem caused by shipping so much of its currency out of the country, you remember the economy, scary isn't it? Worst of all is this problem has been know about since the early '70's and little has been done except for making it worse. Now if you live in Vermont or Denver then by all means keep your gas guzzler but if your flatland brothers had of been buying electric cars for the last twenty odd years then your good old gasoline would be a lot cheaper now and likely as a side benefit the towers would still be standing because the idle rich in Saudi wouldn't have been so rich and idle. Oh and I don't mean to focus on the evil dictatorship know as Saudi Arabia we buy oil from plenty of other despots and tyrannical regimes.
You never know what the major issues are without the benefit of hindsight. Rarely do people know how important the work they are doing is. Cops targeting individuals because they have personal vendettas against them would be a pretty good start but time will tell as they say.
How old are you? What happened to fight for your rights? I bet you're very young or your parents and or guardians have taken care of you your entire life. Its because of people who stood up and done something that we have everything good in this world. You know it was against the law to free slaves and people went to jail for doing just that. It used to be against the law for women to vote and to go shopping on Sunday and yes people went to jail for that too. Not challenging bad laws is a very bad idea because it had produced some of the worst despotic regimes the world has ever known.
A company does not plug a poorly managed leaking hole in the sea, the employees plug the hole. This would not change under receivership.
BP is only a corporate facade, the government used to have the power to remove this facade if it no longer has this power then American has become a Fascist nation where foreign corporations have more power that "we the people".
From what I'm hearing BP has avoided proper safety methods in favor of protecting shareholder value. This has caused the loss of 11 lives, people were killed on that platform! Remember back to the Exxonvaldez, Exxon repeatedly and continuously fought in court to reduce its responsibility and receivership would prevent BP from putting the interest of its management and shareholders ahead of the damage they caused like Exxon did.
The president should temporarily take over BP's Gulf operations. We have a national emergency on our hands. No president would sit by and watch a privately owned nuclear reactor melt down and the gulf spill is the environmental equivalent.
I try to not judge what everyone else wants by what I want, but to each his own.
I guess you don't have a car equipped with an air bag? You know the airbag computer in every car is programmed to save data related to the deployment of its airbag. That means that every new car and those built for years have a system to monitor and record your activities.
I don't know how those GPS I see on the dash boards of every mini van and commuter car work but I wouldn't be surprised to find out that they already call home and upload trip data to be analyzed by the software vendor.
Fleet of large expensive vehicles have these already, expensive proprietary systems too I bet. This could be cheap enough for small vehicles (like the volt) or even smaller like a fork lift or lawn maintenance equipment.
This would be great for people who have to manage a large number of vehicles. Not only do you know where all of your fleet is at any one time but you know who and how the miles are being put on them. Could save millions.
Finally an intelligent comment, I knew I'd find one if I looked long enough. Bravo!
Anyone able to make a significant contribution to or use of files on SF already knows how to find and use a proxy let alone move a few miles (or a few blocks) to the next country not under the ban. Its mock security, reality TV for the network news shows.
I believe you have an extremely elegant solution to the problem or at least a decent attack vector for which to disassemble this "law". I doubt how easy it will be as the people you would have to convince don't seem to have much of a grasp on logic. Look at the list, China is open and Cuba is banned, this alone is mind boggling and an indication of the minds you are about to come against.
Might as well move the servers, will the last one out of the USA please turn out the lights?
The US gov't does not do the blocking, they expect the people who think they live in the what they tell you is the most free country on the planet. Those claimers of ultimate freedom expect the American public to do as they are told and get this work for free removing the freedoms of others. That's what's ridiculous.
And do you what to know what happens if you don't follow orders?
Thank you for posting this link. The Largest Street Gang In America I've heard a few of these stories but they all seem to just go away and I now know why, there was even a large one in my city. I'm going to modify an old saying for a new age. It goes something like this "If you go into a restaurant once and get bad service its the servers fault, if it happens again its the managements fault." I believe people, for the most part do what they are told or at least do what's expected of them. This abuse of police power happens too much to be a cop problem, its management!
as posted above, Kent State, May 4, l970 is a good example, what was the Guard told to shoot down unarmed students? I'm sure you were right with "some terrorists are attacking " INSERT NAME "and threaten the American way of life." At the time of the Kent St. massacre America was fighting another illegal war (according to that piece of paper, The Constitution.) and the war was secretly escalating when Nixon had promised to end it. So why not turn the Guard into a death squad and while you're at it how about some illegal wiretaps a la Watergate? How is this different from any other despot?
Kent State? May 4th 1970 Ohio National Guard from over 300 feet away fires into a crowd of unarmed students killing four, one student is shot in the back and one student not involved it the protest is killed from a stray bullet. Courts said the Guard was justified killing the unarmed and distant students and not even an apology was issued.
By the nature of the document it was intended for use by other than the company and it was distributed outside of the company. Its only a company secret for as long as they keep it that way, did someone break a law to get it? This is a price list not a delicate national security document some slick salesman likely left this behind with a bunch of secret contracts and a list of secret golf tee times. The law is being used to save face by someone who can afford it, you know what they say, money buys anything. If you can afford to go to court you can own it.
Constitution says copyright is for a limited time, currently copyrights do not expire. Who's breaking the law here?
And without registration its pretty hard to prove who owns what without a huge expensive fight.
We are also in a copyright black hole where the future has been extended out to infinity to prevent entropy from dissolving Hollywood or at least that' how the MPAA describes its constitutional duty for repaying its debit for a "limited monopoly".

If all the people who live in sunny places around the world turned to solar it would reduce demand for oil and reduce your costs in less sunny places.

Diesel locomotives are electric trains as they are driven by electric motors that get electricity from diesel generators.

I guess Obama might want to tack a little clause on to anyone who takes the cash that the panels must be built in the USA.

A lot of people think that the police are out of control and have crossed the line into a unconstitutional military force, have you seen this? "The Largest Street Gang in America"

What a bunch of self serving crap. He's an expert in selling other peoples information and often without their permission.
Chilling isn't it? We are truly seen as peasants by these organizations. They'll sell out any Joe for a pitiful $30.
