Well, that’s why my friends in the Sport Memoribilia biz use the old Sporting News and such to sell Base Ball Cards. Maybe they sold the 1974 MLB season set, or maybe they didn’t.

Is this the same Senator Dodd who just received a $75,000 break in his mortgage from Countrywide Loans amid suspicious backroom dealings?

[Disturbin]

Taxation is their motive, not invasion of privacy.

That being said, both are loathsome.

[brownsfan]

A dollar changing hands that they haven’t taxed, and it’s just killing the b*stards!

Fortunately for the people in Congress, most Americans aren’t freepers. Americans, in general, are inattentive, undereducated, and unconcerned.

And on Fox this AM, I learned that your credit score is decided by where you use your credit cards. For example, if you use your credit card to pay a bar bill often, you atre at a bigger risk for default, therefore they lower your credit score. Or, if you use it to pay for marriage counseling, you are a risk for a divorce, so the score is lowered.

There is NO privacy in this country.

Senator Dodd

(Democrat, Connecticut)

should also include a clause that Senators be required to fully disclose all conflicts of interest in legislation, such as his connections to Countrywide...

Fourth Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated

"Effects" is the key term here.

Yard sale police; coming soon to a city near you.

Better report those pair of pajamas you sold to the neighbor kid!

[Notasoccermom]

And they wonder why our businesses go overseas...

[Centurion2000]

The provision, which was added by the bill's managers without debate this week, would require the nation's payment systems to track, aggregate, and report information on nearly every electronic transaction to the federal government.

I get the impression this is NOT going to make it into law.

[A_Former_Democrat]

And yet these are the self-appointed privacy freaks who complain against domestic spying of terrorists.

Amazing.

Where’s the ACLU in all of this?

[visualops]

What does this mean: A de minimis exception for transactions of $10,000 or less and 200 transactions or less applies to payments by third party settlement organizations.

And how does all this reporting raise money, are they talking about internet sales tax? or income tax on sales? WTF?

[oswegodeee]

That’s a sneaky piece of crap.

[2harddrive]

Pay with CURRENCY! Small bills. Or, use GOLD.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Congress can’t take a sh*t without messing in other people’s business!

[muawiyah]

Not too long ago the very same proponents of this act were denouncing grocery stores for “tracking customer’s buying habits” and complaining that such behavior was tantamount to Hitlerism.

Called the local office of both of my Senators. One office person knew exactly what I was talking about and the other one didn’t have a clue. Hopefully word will still get to Washington about how I feel about the huge invasion of privacy.
