Why do I feel like I am in Communist US of A?

Hmmm--just saw a tv ad *supporting* SOPA. Something tells me that those wanting to ram it through are counting on the confusion from those who were protesting SOPA.
And the reason that you feel that you now live in "Communist U.S. of A." is because with the passage of this act we will lose our right to free speech. It's about the same reason I now have to go to foreign sites to tell me what's *really* happening in my own country. (BTW, I *hate* it when the government tells us one thing but the truth is far different. Can't *believe* that this administration seems to think it okay to "pull the wool over it's citizens eyes" by using pretty words instead of facts. )
It never will be until we can come up with a good solution for piracy. Instead of yelling the loudest to get legislation put down we should also offer constructive solutions. I can think of one but it would mean that manufacturers need to lower their prices for softwareI pray to God that this SOPA is killed off and for good.
We were heard for the time being. Why is it I don't trust govt? Mummm
Because this admin (particularly) has a "track record" of "pulling" some bill or something else that the people don't like but then in a few weeks (after the people think the admin. is *finally* listening to them) slipping the darn bill (or what-have-you) back into the bill or in another one until they get their way?
Besides, Obama got about three million in donations for his campaign from Hollywood, but now Hollywood is threatening to stop those donations unless SOPA and PIPA goes through, sooo....
Now thats bad.
I say get rid of Bams. He is bought and sold so easily it disgusts me. And Reid...he is the next sneak.

What we need is some private companies that offer an internet that can product us from inappropriate contentography. This is a huge issue with the internet. Far greater than any other IMO.
BUT, I do not want the government controlling it, it then gives them more control over us.
