Journal Descalzo's Journal: Privacy Uber Alles

Is it just me, or is the entire US of A freaking out over the privacy issues while REAL crimes against freedom are taking us by storm, and we don't even notice?

I'm talking about the wholesale giving-over of our children to the school system (this isn't the government's fault, it's the parents'). I'm talking about the push to nationalize health care (if your phone bill isn't safe now, imagine when the gov't OWNS your medical records). I'm talking about how every time you turn around, control has been given from the state to the federal government, and from county to state, and from city to county, moving your say further and further up the chain, further from your influence. I'm talking about the myriad ways our freedom of religion is being taken from us. I'm talking about the wholesale slaughter of how many hundreds of thousands (millions?) of innocent fetuses in order to prevent a few thousand hypothetical back-alley abortions.

They strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.
