Purged Saudi royals must cough up 70% of their wealth to be freed

Posted on by

“Riyadh seems to have found the way to curb the budget deficit caused by lower oil prices. As the Financial Times report, Saudi officials are offering the arrested royals a deal – pay up to 70 percent of your wealth and go free.  The Saudi government could appropriate hundreds of billions of dollars from the arrested to refill depleted state reserves, according to the media.”

IRS To Extract $207 Billion From Small Businesses By Enforcing Obamacare

Posted on by

“The employer mandate is lucrative for the government. It is expected to bring in penalty payments of $207 billion over the next decade, according to projections by the Congressional Budget Office.  Businesses will generally incur fines of around $2,000 per employee (excluding the first 30) if they do not offer qualifying coverage to nearly all of those who work an average of 30 or more hours a week.  The penalty is activated if at least one employee then buys insurance on the health law’s marketplace and receives a subsidy for it.  The per-employee fine increases each year, and can add up quickly: A company with 100 workers that ignored the law this year would owe a penalty of more than $158,000.”

Pre-Internet Laws Are Jeopardizing Today’s Electronic Privacy

Posted on by

“Under the 1986 law, email that has been stored for 180 or more days is considered to be ‘abandoned’ and can be perused by federal authorities sans a warrant. But in an era of cloud computing and services like Dropbox, most Americans certainly would beg to differ that any emails stored online had been abandoned.”

Cop Arrested for Tampering With Breathalyzers In 20,000 DWI Cases

Posted on by

“The state police have insisted the part of the calibration process that Dennis skipped is ‘legally required but not scientifically necessary.’  However, legal experts have voiced concerns about how important every part of the calibration process is, saying that these measures are ‘legally required’ for good reason. Just a small percentage point on a breathalyzer could mean the difference between freedom and imprisonment.”

Trump’s holiday gift is more invasive airport security

Posted on by

“On the campaign trail last year, Donald Trump derided the Transportation Security Administration as a ‘total disaster.’ But his administration is making TSA more intrusive and abusive while its 42,000 screeners remain as incompetent as ever. New TSA screening guidelines will likely make Thanksgiving travel a disaster for legions of Americans  — and the worst is yet to come.”

Paul Craig Roberts: Who Gets to Push the Nuclear Button?

Posted on by

“The purpose of diplomacy is to prevent war. However, ever since the Clinton regime attacked Serbia, US diplomacy has been used to cause wars. During the 16-years of George W. Bush and Obama the US destroyed in whole or part seven countries, killing and maiming millions of peoples and producing millions of refugees. Not a single one of these wars was justified. Everyone of these wars was based in lies. Before launching each of these acts of unprovoked aggression, Washington demonized the leader of the country. To get rid of one person, Washington did not flinch at murdering large numbers of people and destroying the infrastructure of the country. This tells you that Washington has no morality. None. Zilch. Therefore, Washington is capable of launching a preemptive nuclear strike.”

Why Didn’t “60 Minutes” Mention The U.S. Is Fueling the Yemen Conflict?

Posted on by

“The program featured imagery of starving children and interviews with displaced people, all obtained after Saudi Arabia blocked ’60 Minutes’ from entering the country.  The program did not once mention that Saudi Arabia is a U.S. ally, and that U.S. support is essential for the Saudi campaign to continue.  For two-and-a-half years, the U.S. government has backed Saudi Arabia’s intervention in Yemen every step of the way. The United States has dispatched warships to reinforce the blockade. It has refueled Saudi planes, sent the Saudi military targeting intelligence, and resupplied them with tens of billions of dollars worth of bombs.”

This Trade Treaty Got Better when the US Bailed

Posted on by

“Though the treaty is still imperfect, it does raise hope for more trade and therefore higher living standards. What is downright humiliating for Americans is that the treaty became better only after the US withdrew from it.”
