Personally I've seen plenty of crowdfunding initiatives that seem honest, but when looking closely you discover something with less integrity. As I imagined, this isn't unique to my own circle: https://www.nbcnews.com&#

There's a volume measurement device in a bar I frequent (I'm here now), which hosts music in a very small venue. It's decently full right now (maybe 40-50 people) and there's music playing over the speakers (not live), a

Thanks for the reply, and I suppose you're right. In my review of the public understanding of this topic, they don't seem to understand or even realize the potential benefits from the free market approach.

I imagine you want to make the point that primary School education is more important than secondary School education (which may be true) and thus should be paid better. I disagree with this in general, because I don't feel like the ski

You might be right, but damn does this world have a lot to worry about.

by dgzl 8y ago
No. There are real abuses in this world that need our attention much more than this.

I sympathize with these employees, but isn't this somewhat unimportant in the grand scheme of things? It's not like Starbucks is trying to brain-wash their employees via the Hamilton soundtrack.

Yeah, and I really wish I had a better solution than just excavating the cancerous parts of the government, but Americans aren't very rehearsed on the Constitution or their rights, and finding people who openly advocate for them in the

This is where I express my concern that the American government is operating outside of the Constitution and are guilty of violating our rights. Many constitutionists consider these three-letter agencies to be entirely unconstitutional.

That's true, and I'm not sure what rights Americans have in this case, it's hard to tell. Could claim defamation possibly, or impersonation?

by dgzl 8y ago
No it doesn't. A private company has an obligation by contract to protect that information, even from the government. Our 4th amendment privacy rights apply to businesses as well. Edit: I thought we were talking about America.
