Seems the Corporate-Military likes to keep tabs on everyone.., and they spend BILLIONS of tax $$$!

Aint' it great to pay your taxes so the corporate police-state can keep an eye on you? Don't you just love that the mercenary corporate contractors can access the data surrounding anyone who opposes the corporate-military state, or their agendas.

You see, like most of you, I like to feel that I have nothing to hide. I do not encrypt my email or try to be hidden,. but some people are doing work that involves checking up on the corporations and the politicians they employ to bend the laws for the banksters and the 1% greed-whores who control things. Seems the powerful don't like this, and if anyone gets to much info. or exposes too much, they have to go. Dirty deeds that often look like accidents, suicides, criminal activity, whatever it takes to keep power and wealth is what the sociopathic few do, to maintain the power they enjoy. If you still think the NSA and rest of the security apparatus is devised to "stop terrorists" then you really need to take a fresh look at what they ARE DOING, as well as the things they have ALREADY DONE!

If you have not yet you should now look into an oldy but still a nasty little bit of work done to "protect the people";

COINTELPRO (an acronym for COunter INTELligence PROgram) was a series of covert, and at times illegal,projects conducted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) aimed at surveying, infiltrating, discrediting, and disrupting domestic political organizations.
The FBI has used covert operations against domestic political groups since its inception; however, covert operations under the official COINTELPRO label took place between 1956 and 1971. COINTELPRO tactics have been alleged to include discrediting targets through psychological warfare; smearing individuals and groups using forged documents and by planting false reports in the media; harassment; wrongful imprisonment; and illegal violence, including assassination. The FBI's stated motivation was "protecting national security, preventing violence, and maintaining the existing social and political order.

Older things are easier to get at some times, more recent happenings have evolved and learned from their past mistakes,. you see it all the time if you look for it. The capitalist corporate-military system, or fascism if you need a shorter word for it is alive and kicking, ask Chelsea Manning, ask Edward Snowden, you can't ask Michael Hastings, or many others who are no longer with us,. .
