Yahoo plays defunct DRM tune
***Begin Quote***
It’s getting to be an old song. This week the Yahoo Music Store sent a message to customers saying they will turn off their DRM servers after September, thus joining MSN Music, Sony’s Connect music store and other online music services in eventually cutting off customers who purchased DRM-wrapped tunes. And readers have no doubt it’s a song the movie, e-book, and software publishers are also going to be singing in the future.
***End Quote***
So, do they give us a refund for DESTROYING a perfectly good working piece of software that they replaced with a POS?
Yeah, like that’s going to happen!
FTC? DOJ? Political help? Yeah, like that’s going to happen!

LIBERTY: the voice of the people?
Tuesday, July 22, 2008
confusing sentiment
While I don’t think drilling on Route 1 will yield much oil, I understand the author’s frustration with the political gang in charge. Any drilling will put the fear into OPEC that we are serious about our National Energey policy. Heck those politician might even get out of the way of folks who want nuclear power.
As far as “support our troops”, if they were mine, they’d be home now.
“Win the war; live in peace” is also confused. What war? Did Congress declare “war” and I didn’t hear about it?
Maybe the person meant all the other “wars” — War on (Some) Drugs, War on Poverty, War on Terror, War on Cigarettes, War on Honest Money, War on Education, War on War, … … think it’s an over used word?
Why don’t the Swiss have such problems? They MYOB!
In 1980, the voters elected Regan for smaller government; bigger government, higher taxes, lower tax rates. In 1988, they elected “No New Taxes” GHW Bush; higher taxes and spending. In 1992, they elected Clinton who promised a middle class tax cut; higher taxes and more spending. In 2000, they elected GW Bush for “compasionate conservatism” and a “humble foreign policy”; we got more government spending than Clinton, war around the globe, and facism here at home. (Been to an airport lately? It like a moive depicting the Nazis!) In 2006, the nation threw out the R’s to get peace; More war! In pre-Presidential primary polling, 70% of the nation wanted an end to the various “wars”; what do both political parties nominate — pro-war candidates.
So, I understand the author’s frustration.
We have to “Gandhi” the political gang in charge. Just laugh at them and call them out for what they are — tyrants, ruling at the barrel of a gun. Don’t think so? Try not paying their tribute or kowtowing to them. You’ll see who is the slave and who is the master really quick.
Hint: It ain’t you!

LIBERTY: What are you prepared to do about it?
Monday, July 21, 2008http://www.ncc-1776.org/tle2008/tle477-20080720-02.html
To End War, Prepare For Peace
by L. Neil Smith
Attribute to The Libertarian Enterprise
***Begin Quote***
On the other side of the economic, geopolitical, and military mess we find ourselves in right now (provided, of course, that we survive it), certain things that we have done routinely as a civilization—or that have been done to all of us—must be changed, radically and permanently.
The first is to establish widespread recognition that, in addition to being immoral because it happens to be theft, taxation is the fuel of war. If you remember nothing else from this essay, try to remember that.
Taxation is the fuel of war.
***End Quote***
And the author puts the question to us at the end of the article:
What are you prepared to do about it?
That’s the rubber meets the road question.
How will we oppose the gang with guns who aren’t afraid to use violence? Gandhi gave us the tool non-violent non-cooperation. When 70% wanted us out of the various “wars”, they elected the D’s. And, what did they get, more war.
So the gang puts the TSA at the airports, I try NOT to fly. Since they did it, I’ve only taken two flights — Iowa for fun and Denver for work. Period end of story. Non-violent non-cooperation.
Maybe there will be some more demonstrations.
