Tech giants team up in anti-snooping effort

On the one hand: good for them! On the other, I am even more uncomfortable with corporate influence in the government than I am with the NSA, and that is saying an awful lot.

IF YOU REFRAIN FROM TALKING ABOUT RACE, PEOPLE MIGHT THINK YOU’RE RACIST

As many commenters point out, not all of the "black" people on that modified Guess Who? board look unambiguously black. So there's that as well.

Well... the artificial reality of poverty anyway.

One about how the IRS audited this woman because - get this - she doesn't make enough money. Apparently, the only way you can live below the poverty line is if you're hiding income, and very stupidly as well.

And this article about how children on Medicaid are more likely to be treated with antipsychotics than children with private insurance.

Clicky!

What really gets me is how some of these people in this article talk. They're all going "Oh, well, a lot of people cheat the system but not me" or "I'm not one of those lazy people" or whatnot.

What do they think, that most people, given half a chance, would willingly choose to live on public assistance and charity rather than work? What nonsense! They can see looking at their own situations that this is not the case, but they cling to their old stories. Unbelievable.
