ALMOST?

Consider: Software utilities like "Copy 2+" from the 1980s... needed
to make VITAL BACKUPS are now CRIMINAL...

?!?!? Where the fuck do we live again ?!?!?

Its a sick sad joke that someone living in what was once the USSR
apparently has more freedoms and a better shot at starting his or her
own business, under the principles of free enterprise, that someone
living in the USA.

This country is NOTHING even close to a free republic these days. Take
a look at environmental law if you dont consider whats been done in
cyberspace to matter. ... any puddle, on any land, that sticks around
for more than three days, is a federally protected wetland. Drain it,
and you too can be raped up the ass by dirty old "Uncle Sam"...

It wont be too long before more people decide fighting our current
government is a cause worth dying for.
