Even though it was an act the actions were real. This shit is fucked up. People have rights and we are no less human than you or me. Just because someone is dressed differently doesn’t mean they deserve to be treated this way.

Tax Havens

We wouldn’t have these if the governments did tax us so much. Now because you make more money, thanks to the government you get taxed more. I believe it was around 40% of your money goes to the government. So work hard and get punished is America’s new motto. Or so I have heard.

Laid Off

Not quite as dramatic as this. I would not be surprised if the company I worked for did this. They let me go on Friday afternoon, Labor day weekend. I had an 18 month contract and was told that the client wished to not renew the contract. I was only 6 months into the contract. No other reason was given to me. I questioned about the 18 months and was told no that’s not what it said, I reread the contract it definetly said 18 months w/e. No big deal, I wasn’t that mad. The plan now is to document and blog about the system that I will be taking advantage of. I will understand why almost everyone wants to come to America and gain citizenship status. Stay tuned people for more information.

Woman who was ratted out by Google Sues Google

admin — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 23:59:19 +0000

The picture you see above is the woman that was ratted out by Google due to a court order. Ms. Port apparently had a blog in which she called a woman named Liskula Cohen a “skank” and other defaming words. Liskula decided to take the case to court and by court order Google had to divulge the site owners name which was Rosmary Port. Liskula Cohen apparently was going to sue Ms. Port but later dropped the charges. Rosemary Port is suing google for $15 million for invading her privacy. I don’t think Ms. Port has much of a case, Google really had no choice but we shall see how this pans out.

It looks to me like the Swiss are no longer choosing sides and are siding with the US IRS. Hit the link for the article.

This is the most absurd form of censorship. They don’t want you to tweet or post status updates on sporting events. Messed up I can’t wait to see how they will enforce this.
