CISPA

This is the very definition of too much government.   Government has a rightful place.  Energy policy.  National defense from real threats with real information about those threats, both foreign and domestic.  Education.  Fiscal issues.  But this is really too far.  The US government should not be in the business of tracking it's citizens every movement for no other purpose than just to do so.  

While I do understand the governments need to protect it's citizens and the nation and with all forms of technology growing more and more accessible, cheaper, and transportable, I can understand the government needing to know more.  But not in a fly-by-night bill with no real and substantive public debate.  One should not give the government, an entity our forefathers rightfully were wary of, seeing their experience with it, a midnight pass to monitor all Americans.  

A few years ago President Bush looked to pass TIA (Total Information Awareness).  The public was outraged.  However, now it seems that instead of passing it all at once quiet but determined people are passing it piece by piece.  One thing is certain: we are crossing the Rubicon and there will be little chance of turning back.

CISPA and it's dangers.
