That's a nice strawman you've got there. It's be a shame if anything happened to it. Have I shown you my flamethrower?
And to reply to your stupid comment:
YES, every science-damned second that I am working as a public servant I should be recorded so the citizens who's forcibly taken wages pay for my salary know how good of a job I am doing (you putz).
Actually, all of what we refer to as "society" IS nothing more than a contract--an agreement amongst individuals.
Roughly, it says "let's have laws we can all agree upon instead of just killing each other". Sadly, the state of most laws is utter rubbish at present, and many do not agree with them. But, yeah, social contract; there ya go.
I find people who only speak in agreeable phrases and overuse the word "friend" to be downright creepy... But they deserve the right to free speech as much as anybody.
I have in my pocket a piece of hematite which is 100% effective at deterring terrorist attacks in my vicinity.
How do I know it's 100% effective? I've never been in/near/around a terrorist attack while carrying it.
Seeing as I'm feeling generous, I'll license my patented hematite pocket-stone technology to the airlines for the low low price of only $100,000 per stone.
They should need only one stone per flight, and perhaps a couple more for each airport, so this is quite a bargain.
Hey, the CNTMJ is actually a non-profit charitable organization just looking to clear their name(s) of all the humbug connotations with which they've been affiliated, and how dare you smear their good name by associating them with a member of Anonymous.
"Furthermore, in IPI and MPAA fantasy-land, dollars not spent on movies simply disappear from the economy. And yet, anyone can tell you that's simply not true."
What? I don't know about you but I pull a $20 out of my wallet and burn it every time I download a movie.

Shouldn't "we the people" know if we're getting our moneys worth from the assholes?
Citizens' taxes are paying for their salary; shouldn't any citizen be able to scrutinize their performance?

And remember, if ever one of the stones proves defective, I will provide the first replacement stone at no additional cost.
