No, it isn't. If I don't have the ability to prevent 3rd parties from entering my house, it isn't a wild exaggeration.

Well, I kinda view giving my keys to BigCorp as leaving the door unlocked. From a privacy standpoint, I think that is also how it works [e.g. 3rd party doctrine]

Exactly. The FBI's argument is basically: "Leave your front door unlocked. Just in case we want to search you for drugs/obscene material/weapons/etc." I don't know about you, but I don't want to leave

Because focusing on the IRS ignores the fact Congress can alter the IRS's mandate at-will to remove any of the policies of the IRS that is considered "bad". The President and his appointees can alter things within the mandate

Yes but honestly, Google's level of corruption is tolerable. Frankly, it is expected. No organization of Google's size can completely avoid the idea that "what is good for us == good for customers". I'm pretty sure

So, basically, your argument is you ignore reality and substitute your own. The Gold Standard pegged the cost of one good [gold] to the price of the USD. It didn't magically make inflation disappear. RE: Bretton Woods Fixing the exchan

No, you have it backwards. The Gold Standard died in 1934 when the President was authorized to devalue the Dollar up to 40%. In the 70s, things were fine. It wasn't until the 80s when the "$30/hr" bit started to fall off
