No, no it wasn't. Way out of line. The caught the guy after they had ended the lockdown of Boston.
From Obama's proposed budget:TVA is a self-financing Government corporation, funding operations through electricity sales and bond financing. In order to meet its future capacity needs, fulfill its environmental responsibilities, and modernize its aging generation system, TVA’s current capital investment plan includes more than $25 billion of expenditures over the next 10 years. However, TVA’s anticipated capital needs are likely to quickly exceed the agency’s $30 billion statutory cap on indebtedness. Reducing or eliminating the Federal Government’s role in programs such as TVA, which have achieved their original objectives and no longer require Federal participation, can help put the Nation on a sustainable fiscal path. Given TVA’s debt constraints and the impact to the Federal deficit of its increasing capital expenditures, the Administration intends to undertake a strategic review of options for addressing TVA’s financial situation, including the possible divestiture of TVA, in part or as a whole.
I would have thought that Noam Chomsky would be considered America's favorite anarchist.
By your logic you can't call segregationists racist because not all of them are demonstrably so. What a crock of shit.
If dick pumps are covered then so should contraceptives.
Seems similar to the tactic Congress is using to destroy the Post Office.

This is why activists have to push just as hard (if not more so) against private data collection and exploitation.

I made the changes, I originally made the assumption that people would know what stingrays are.
So the article fairly quickly points out that the group that was given studies to read about it actually DID end up changing their minds, all but the most stalwart. So the MoJo headline is misleading, in my opinion.
I'm not sure that this would have come to light if it weren't for Snowden.
I don't see why a democratic institution can't be used to ensure net neutrality. All they have to do is classify ISPs as common carriers and boom, net neutrality.
What makes a privatized school any better at individualized education?
From what I've read Comcast has well placed former employees in the antitrust divisions that would scrutinize this merger. And of course they are planning a lobbying blitz in order to push it through. There is no way in hell this should be allowed.
Yeah, but it's not like that revelation is overly new. Just brought into the light recently.
Disappointing how?
This has been Assange's legal stance for quite a while I believe.
Do you have any articles your recommend about that?
I was under the impression that they can't use evidence against someone that they obtained outside a warranted investigation into a known crime. Is this true?
I hope people's debts burned up.
What damage?
Turning it off doesn't necessarily mean they can't track or tap you. There's a reason that Snowden asked Greenwald to put his phone in the fridge during their meeting in HK.
It's the democracy that's benefiting the population, not capitalism.
He pushed violent solutions and pioneered the settlement strategy for annexation.
Democracy Now also had good coverage.
Right to work is a misnomer. It actually allows workers to freeload of the negotiations of labor unions without paying dues to the union. It's already a guaranteed right to not have to join a union as a condition of employment unless the company itself forces you to in your contract.
