Is Taxation Impractical?
Source: ZeroAggressionProject.org
Kings called it tribute rather than theft. Politicians prefer the word tax. But all these words describe a violence-based funding system…pay or suffer violence. This system is both immoral and impractical.

COMMENT: If a government must rely on its citizens to voluntarily fund its operations, then that government is "owned and controlled" by its citizens. However, if men in power can simply confiscate whatever amount of money they want (via taxes or inflation), then the people are "owned and controlled" by the government. Under these circumstances, the people cannot hope to limit government growth or power in any meaningful way, nor can they effectively prevent its abuses.

Artificial Intelligence Chatbot Taken Offline
Source: CBSNews.com
Microsoft got a swift lesson this week on the dark side of social media. Yesterday the company launched "Tay," an artificial intelligence chatbot designed to develop conversational understanding by interacting with humans. Users could follow and interact with the bot @TayandYou on Twitter and it would tweet back, learning as it went from other users' posts. Today, Microsoft had to shut Tay down because the bot started spewing a series of lewd and racist tweets.

COMMENT: Paraphrasing: 

"Tay" went from saying that 'humans are super cool,' to being a full blown Nazi in less than 24 hours."

Your 72-Hour Bug-Out Bag
Source: ArtOfManliness.com
The term 'Bugging Out' refers to the decision to abandon your home due to an unexpected emergency situation–whether a natural disaster or one caused by man.   A 'Bug Out Bag' is a pre-prepared survival kit designed to sustain you through the journey to your destination once you've decided to 'Bug Out' in the event of an emergency evacuation.  Typically, the Bug Out Bag (BOB) is a self-contained kit designed to get you through at least 72 hours.  This kit is also referred to as a 72-Hour Bag, a Get Out Of Dodge Bag (GOOD Bag), an EVAC Bag, and a Battle Box.

The thought of having to evacuate your home due to a sudden and imminent threat is not at all unrealistic.  The reality is that sudden and uncontrollable events of nature and man do happen.  Natural disasters such as hurricanes, storms, earthquakes, floods and volcanic explosions can strike fast and hard–wreaking havoc on homes, vehicles, roads, medical facilities and resource supply chains such as food, water, fuel, and electricity.  When Hurricane Katrina struck the Southern US Coast just a few years ago, tens of thousands of people had to evacuate their homes with little warning.  Unprepared and with no emergency plan, many of these people were completely dependent on scavenging and hand-outs while living in make-shift shelters–fending for themselves in a time of complete chaos and disorder.

What is a brokered convention, and are we going to have one in 2016?
Source: Brookings.edu
--Because the primaries get so much attention, people often forget that in the end it is the delegates who award a presidential candidate the nomination. And, here's the kicker: there is no law anywhere that says these delegates can't do exactly what they want to do if a majority of them decide. The Supreme Court has ruled on more than one occasion that political parties are protected by the First Amendment's freedom of association and thus in most conflicts between state law and party rules the party rules win.

What the TSA's new body-scanner rules mean for you
Source: WashingtonPost.com
--Passenger advocates object to the full-body scanners on many levels. The pricey machines, they say, were deployed without giving the public a chance to comment, a process required by federal law. They also say the devices violate the Fourth Amendment right to protection from unreasonable searches and seizures. Also, the scanners have not been adequately tested and may present health risks, some claim.

Critics say the technology is easily foiled and ultimately ineffective at identifying threats, citing an audit in which the TSA failed to catch weapons 67 of 70 times. To date, the scanners have not thwarted a single attempted terrorist attack, these agency-watchers correctly point out. What's more, the agency has broken a promise it made to passengers and legislators when it began installing the scanners in 2009.

"The TSA is going back on its word," says Fred Cate, a law professor at Indiana University and prominent TSA-watcher. "The scanners were sold to Congress and the public on the promise that they were optional, but for at least some people, that is no longer the case."
