Well, it's been waaaay too long since I posted anything here, but honestly, it seems like some new horror is birthed almost every day around here. I just can't keep up with it! There is a new one that I particularly like, though. Now that the government has the power to take over (and then do anything it pleases with) any corporation in the country, I find it interesting that the SEC now wants to be exempt from FOIA requests. Now, why would that be?

Let's see, they can send whatever e-mails and memos back and forth they want about closing Company X because their politics are wrong, and then they can hide those memos forever because we can't FOIA them. And if some employee with a conscience leaks them, he'll get Vince Fostered.

Nice. Anyone see even a teeny tiny potential for a problem here?
