PATRIOT ACT Means Never Having to Say You’re Sorry

“Congress passed the PATRIOT ACT — a long, badly written, insanely complicated piece of legislation — without reading it. No surprise — they all had rage boners, and Americans love big, grand gestures of we’re-really-a-gonna-do-something-now, like voting for 342 pages of prolix government-empowering drivel without reading past the big shiny PATRIOT label.” And, this is exactly why complete and total noncompliance should rule the day. And, I don’t say that lightly, as I am currently involved in a high-stakes non-compliance issue myself.
