Pearl, I still maintain that if any citizen has nothing to hide, he need not fear any kind of security methods. It's not like the NSA is going to do anything because someone accesses a porn site, calls his Congressman with a complaint, or dials a 900 number. If anyone makes a call that mentions bombs, weapons, or is too anti American, they should be investigated.
I've heard a lot of stories like the one about your dog. The only way you can avoid that, is to live alone. Two feral cats adopted me, and now live in the house, and even though I like dogs better. I have to change the stuff in their litter box. At least, my wife feeds, and waters them.
The problem with Russia, is that they are faced with organized crime, like our mob from the past, that are into everything.
The US, once had a lot of oil below ground, but since this nation has gotten so crowded with people, and vehicles, it has been nearly exhausted, but if certain states would allow off shore drilling, and drill under close monitoring, certain large areas of wilderness, we could stand on our own. I am a lover of wild animals, and the tranquility of wilderness, but it can be done with a minimum of damage. The citizens that are fighting such measures, drive the same gas guzzling vehicles as anyone else. |
