SOPA

[TonyEvans]

The problem is that SOPA is on the face of it an illegal act, because it deprives the owner and holder of the domain page his property without due process of law. However, in most (but not all) cases, the owner and holder of the domain page IS violating copyright law.

That's why I said this is political - it needs to be contested via lawsuit in the court system.

Y'know, I'm gonna ask a question and I'll either be held as an idiot for it, or be given some measure of respect.

Why do we even need a government? At the fall of every empire there was one common factor: A government that sought too much control from the people. Take out the government of today? My family and everyone I know will continue to live our lives as we always have. Going to work, buying food, gifts, items for entertainment, going to movies, Olive Garden on Thursday with the cousins, etc. Nothing would really change? I'm not saying take out the Judicial area, we'd still need protection from crime, but I've never seen or heard of a government actually doing something over-all good for its people that didn't give the related politicians a moment of fame and glory.

I'm sure I'm just rambling, probably less-educated/informed, or just otherwise being stupid, but that's how I see it. Am I wrong? Correct me, but don't go into a two paragraph double-spaced all-bold mostly-underlined rage moment about it.
