Mount Airy, MD | Good Grief Gas is on track to being $5 a gallon by summer. The economy continues to sputter into oblivion with no recovery in sight.
This is what the White House deems to be important?

| Conflict of Interest This is the same government that wants to pass legislation requiring ISPs to maintain records for 2 years to track user's web history?

Re: Conflict of Interest Want to be staggered? Do the math on how much data an OC-3 connection passes each year (quite a small isp really). 150MB x 60 seconds x 60 minutes x 24 hours x 365 days is around 4.7304 Petabytes. We'll just assume that they don't have to keep all the information pass over the wires and only need to keep records of which IP address connects to which IP address and the number gets all the way down to "I may only need half a rack of hard drives to store all this."
The additional cost for my internet connection doesn't sit well with me, let alone the privacy concern WHEN a hacker gets this information. Which brings me to the whole other topic of privacy with the government also holding the ISP responsible for securing this data because they know it will be stolen. |

Other not important things from the federal government. Women's personal choice of health care services, sex, gay sex, straight sex, animal sex, condoms, marriage, religious beliefs as government imposed law, more sex...
It is important to note that these are not White House issues.

Re: Conflict of Interest This is party why nearly all popular websites are based around collecting data about their users. They use this to make a profit and they also expand their services to include communications between their users which results in more data to analyze and collect. The gov't just needs to tap the business and rarely has to collect raw data on their own.
This isn't to say the raw data isn't being collected midstream, it's just that they sort of enable a distributed network to do the general analyzing before they focus on one target or group.

Perhaps if the White House wasn't busy trying to infringe on the religious liberties of private organizations, it would have been able to solve the real problems with which it has yet to deal. But sadly, no one can put birth control in their gas tank.

Mount Airy, MD | said by FBGuy:gas prices are the white houses problem? They certainly were when Bush was president. Back in the bad old days of 2008 he was blamed right and left for being an oil man who worked in consort with gas companies to bilk the average citizen dry.
Of course now with this president, he can do "absolutely nothing" about them, which of course is a lie.
As for online privacy, just accept that it doesn't exist, and click accordingly. Nothing more needs to be said about it.

You mean those religious liberties of denying non-religious employees their choice of health care services?
I mean who doesn't love it when their boss tells them they can only get 2 of their 3 fingers sewed back on...

No employee's religious liberty is being denied by any organization. If a person doesn't like his employer's health insurance policies he can either opt out and buy it himself or get a new job. No one is forcing anyone to work for a specific organization.
What's next, some sort of help for people who work for tobacco companies but hate smoking?
The Supreme Court just issued a ruling telling the administration that it must butt out of the employment policies of religious employers. That whole pesky First Amendment and not being allowed to restrict the free exercise of religious beliefs and all. What an archaic and outdated concept indeed.
And again, how is giving people "free" birth control going to fix the economy?

Re: Conflict of Interest Our Government is truly a piece of dog poop !!!
And this legislation will only add on costs to both taxpayers, businesses and to your ISP Bill.And as mentioned elsewhere it will be a huge security risk. |

Re: Good Grief Those PRIVATE organizations try to impose there beliefs on us, idiot! Right wing christian organizations always lobbying and Republicans getting rid of same sex marriage (BTW, the birth control issue silly because it's going to be covered anyway now so it's a still a win for women, and those reforms were needed because your PRIVATE INSURANCE COMPANIES will charge an outta this world rate for a necessity for a lot of women) and pushing there mangled CHRISTIAN beliefs onto everyone, happens all the time you see it all the time if your not blinded. You forget this and are severely blinded by facts, GOV'T really CAN'T control gas prices, you blame the government so much, yet you never look to yourselves (republicans) you think you're so much better and more qualified, we saw you do that in the Reagan and Bush era, Reagan brought us debt and more religion while bush brought more of nothing but deregulation do pure stupidity. THINK before you SPEW! |
