        One of my gma's cousins was a CIA asset planted in Castro's office. If she could've done it and lived, she probably would've. Castro was (rightfully) paranoid so it was an incredibly dangerous spot to be in. Read the JFK files.

        For someone who is not allowed to go home and has to live in a constant state of surveillance, it probably is.

        But it’s not efficient. I am truly disgusted in myself for saying this, but the Nazi’s had the best and most effective means of doing that. The US government is most effective at lining contractors and officials pockets by whatever means necessary.

        it is witty maybe but destructively cynical to attack "government" in an era when it, and the services it offers, is genuinely under assault by the right. maybe not efficiently, but better than any other organization to date: it builds roads, public schools, funds.... 1/2

        he's referring to the 7 different countries America is bombing or droning to death. Easily 90% of Americans are clueless of this horrible fact. Are Americans any safer with all of these dubious actions? And it's costs trillions of dollars to KILL others.

        I'd argue that "government" as you put it is not very good at killing either...but as you no doubt know "government" is involved in much more than foreign relations. but then i get the feeling we're in a throw out the baby with the bath water convo here....so no point debating

        US Govt has restricted what one can choose in terms of healthcare/insurance. Even if I have a valid plan, GOVT limits what non-GOVT approved options I can use. Thereby killing or making worse patients. My body, my choice only applies to women?
