What's even sadder is that people don't realize the process by which corporations control the USofA. The fact that citizens willingly cede their rights to government in exchange for the promise of "security" or "health care." Our government, after stripping out some of the privileges they want to keep for themselves, turns around and sells that power to large corporations. The large corporations simply repackage the "security" or the "health care" and sell it back to us (individually or collectively) at a huge markup.

If you lament the fact that "corporations control the USofA" but support Obamacare, you are exactly the type of fool that keeps this system in place. :banghead:

And just to be clear, the problem is not the corporation. The problem is you.

something... that does not exist in nature? Just wondering :giveup:

About the original subject: it won't matter, if pirates can avoid attempts to stop piracy, what makes them think people won't stop the rootkits/viruses? As for everything else that went off on a tangent, shut up bitches!

Yes but government involvement aren't as black and white as some make it, and just because some programs and regulations are inefficient, does not mean all are. Most gov't programs do begin to rust out after being overwhelmed with lobbyists and corruption, but the solution should be to reform them rather than get rid of them totally (while some should be gotten rid of). I know I'm speaking in very general terms but no different than what you did.
Obamacare is shitty in that rather than address the problem of high medical care costs and insurance companies, they just make the uninsured more dependent on insurance companies.
Though I read reports about Obamacare reducing total insurance costs in certain states since insurance companies compete in the healthcare exchange to attract customers.

Anyways, last post, had to <,<
