• Warning: This is only related to the NSA in a very broad sense.

    The earlier post moved to the area of States Rights versus federal power. Federal power must have its limits or "States Rights" mean nothing. States are another check and balance of power.

    Now from my soap box... Why does the federal government have so much influence over the education of children? It is a parental or family matter first. City, state and nation have interests in all citizens. Do you think that each bigger organization knows better than a smaller organization just because it is big? The further you move from a unique child with unique needs, the closer you come to one-size-fits-all being the only size available whether or not it works.

    Who is the NSA to decide that my privacy must be forfeited?
