You just don't get it do you? The current administration is the closest this nation has ever come to Marxist socialist/communism. Get your head out of the sand and take a look at what's going on in Washington DC. Obama has proposed one socialist program after another. Health care that will socialize medicin and grant government intrusion into everybody's lives. Do you want some beaurocrat reviewing your erectile dysfunction? He/she will probably send you a popsicle stick and a roll of duct tape. The only proctologist on the plan will be a guy named Gus from Roto Rooter. Then there is the Cap and Trade act. And a tax system designed to take from those with the ability to work and give to those unwilling to lift a hand for themselves. "from each according to his ability to each according to his need" That is straight out of Marx and Engles Communist Manifesto. You really are an Anonymous Coward, you Anonyous Coward.
Guy Arrested? ARRESTED?? Wow, the FBI must really have little or nothing to do up in Oregon. I could understand investigated, but arrested? There has got to be more to this than simple modding a modem, (for third parties). There is nothing so distasteful as government intrusion. If third parties are stealing arrest them, but not the guy who modified the modem. He is not the criminal any more than an auto mechanic that modifies a hot rod for someone who then speeds down the city streets at night. Arrest the speeder, not the mechanic.
Public domane be damned. Why should the Gershwin family have to give up what is rightfully theirs? The work of the Gershwin brothers is their property. Truly no different than if it were land. Should the family farm suddenly become public property? What if it were YOUR property? How would you view it then?
