Call Your Senator Before This Blog Gets Shut Down

Being the proverbial engineer, I want facts and data. So once again I heard rumblings about another Bill before the Senate and I wanted to decide for myself if this is a bad deal for Americans and to know who is telling me the truth. This time it is Senate Bill 773, “Cybersecurity Act of 2009.” While I think cyber security is an important issue, the government is once again overstepping its bounds into an area in which it really has no business, nor any expertise.

Freerepublic.com would be right behind.

Easier solution, petition your Representative to have a Spanish War repayment tax imposed upon the INTERNET. (considering the time it took to figure it out the last time...)

I have no idea...I didn’t post a comment and usually it doesn’t post a blank comment.
