I trust gas station sushi more than my politicians.

This is the direction things are going and it disappoints me. The courts see the dangers and the issues that stem from it, but they decided to leave it to the individual state to regulate things.

It'll depend on where you live I suppose. If you're in a state that has stricter regulations than others, tough. This hardly inspires reverence or even confidence in the democratic electoral system. That's because this kind of thing isn't one of the key issues that running candidates have. Candidates tend to have other issues they focus on and that's what the majority of people will base their vote on. Would you look at that. Almost two hundred and fifty years after the birth of a nation and some concepts back then, apply to us to this day. The concept of tyranny of the majority.

The chairman of the FCC says it's a "big victory for consumers"? Hardly. The FCC is basically attempting to turn the net into a money making machine. It comes down to money, and this seems like a cash grab for buereaucrats. It reeks of greed.

Guess we have no choice but to watch the U.S. fall like the Roman Empire and Channel Awesome. How sad.
