I think these proposals need to be in both party platforms - they are excellent suggestions that would make a real difference

      I love what you are doing and trying to do similar myself. The more people that do, the better.

      But I think there is a lot of value in attacking this problem with the suggestions in this article through legislation.

      I know of data that is being collected about people that is totally out of their control, that is one reason why legislation is needed.

          exactly. and that is why those businesses aren’t stopped from forming monopolies - which are against are laws, but those laws aren’t enforced for companies help certain sectors of gov’t.

        worth a try. i think both the Left and Right are in bed with BigBiz, though, and won’t seriously change any thing unless their PuppetMasters agree.
