There needs to be consequences.....

Have been watching a Frontline Program on the Pegasus Project. An Israeli company NSO who for a price sells software which is a go to for tyrants without a adequate intelligence service. Allowing hacking of any phone number.

It was a comment from the head of Whatsapp, Will Cathcart " if there are no consequences for those who try to break that software to commit human rights abuses, there will always be someone trying to do it".


Something applies to J6, gun violence, tax evasion ,corporate malfeasance etc.....

Actions must have conquesneses!

Call out those politicians who take money and than sell out those they profess to represent. Of course one problem is low IQ single issue voters dont pay attention nor do they care if they vote against their economic interests because they get to own the libs. Fuck them, try to educate the younger generation.

Allowing banks to pay a fine for malfeasance is not enough.
Allowing corporations to pay a fine with a empty promise to do better is not enough.


If corporations have rights accorded to flesh and blood individuals, than they should be subjected to the same penalties.

Imprisonment for corporate officers, dissolvement of corporate entities with assets going to the public coffers.

You want to solve illegal immigration?
Throw the head of the company in jail! Not some low level manager.
The head of the company! That would stop it.

But then what would farmers do? They need illegal immigration, I dont see any white boys in the fields in Skagit county when I drive through 2x a day.
Give those who come across the border a path to citizenship. The majority in this country are descendants of immigrants. Our forefathers are what made America great.

Just a rant from a wine addled cynic.
