BOY, is this 'letter to america' depressing. certainly not new, but i feel like i'm standing in the shadow of an approaching tidal wave, here. Already your home can be entered without your knowledge or permission, you can be snatched away and incarcerated without cause, your mail can be spied on, your private records searched. Why isn't this a recipe for widespread business theft, political intimidation, and fraud? I know you've been told all this is for your own safety and protection, but think about it for a minute.

and this is great not-entirely-nauseating politics wank debate, re: pro-bush media bias, at the wage slave journal.
