I disagree...to Reduce Energy demand by requiring electronics to be truly off - not leeching energy. Only allowed with certain exceptions (Cable Boxes for example because of the long booting / reprogramming time)

I disagreeThe Guy on the tv commercial says today's cars are 95 percent cleaner emissions than the seventies........ So what's the problem? Mount St Helen's and a couple other major volcanic eruptions, each doing large doses of greenhouse gases.

The Guy on the tv commercial says today's cars are 95 percent cleaner emissions than the seventies........
So what's the problem?
Mount St Helen's and a couple other major volcanic eruptions, each doing large doses of greenhouse gases.
Hurricanes, Drought, Non-stop fires over 1/3 of the U.S. - all are destroying large trees.....NOT COUNTING THE NORMAL ON PURPOSE LOGGING.
I bet if someone did get a program to do a google earth via satellite and estimate the LARGE TREE ACREAGE of the U.S. and other Countries that we would have ONLY 1/3 TO 1/2 THE LARGE TREE ACREAGE OF TEN YEARS AGO.
It doesn't count to have greenery it HAS TO BE LARGE TREE ACREAGE!!!
The results? Along with the rainforest losses, we have the loss of earth's capability to clean and convert co2 and release the oxygen into our atmosphere causing not as much moisture in the air to diffuse and dissipate sunlight before it hits our oceans.
This means the oceans get warmer. More sunlight on the Warmer Oceans means they will fuel dramatically stronger hurricanes, & tornadoes due to the more dramatic temperature differences.
At the same time, water to condense into a liquid requires a particle of dirt or pollution. With the higher ratios of pollution it means the water condenses sooner than it would in a pristine environment - meaning the moisture under current conditions stays in the atmosphere for shorter and shorter time periods.
Once again causing the spread of larger and larger arid low moisture fronts causing more violent storms and conditions.
They're pushing exotic cures and IGNORING THE FACT THAT NEARLY 2/3 OF OUR PREVIOUS LARGE TREE POPULATIONS ARE DEAD!!!!
Large companies should have a yearly tax to give free seedlings to surrounding Landowners to reduce their carbon footprint - enough to clean and offset their atmospheric output.
All Properties in the cities not meeting a certain tree ratio normally found in the countryside should have a TAX FOR THIS PURPOSE ALSO TO SUPPLY FREE SEEDLINGS TO LANDOWNERS IN THE SUBURBS to reduce pollution and acquire better air quality around the cities.
Regardless of the commercial ALL OF THEM SHOULD BE PROMOTING PLANTING LARGE TREES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
{commercials}
"PLANT LARGE TREES!!!!!.............buy a hybrid
"PLANT LARGE TREES!!!!!............Install solar panels
"PLANT LARGE TREES!!!!!...........reduce emissions
"GOING GREEN ISN'T ENOUGH - PLANT LARGE TREES!!!!"
"Houston! we HAVE A PROBLEM!!! We are on this Space Journey and 2/3 of our OXYGEN SCRUBBERS ARE DESTROYED AND NON FUNCTIONAL!!!!!....."
"Yea, it like THAT!
It's NOT as complicated as they'd like you to believe.........
..........the missing moisture output to the atmosphere and the normal atmospheric scrubbing action of the missing LARGE trees accounts for it all. Watch the news and see how the low humidity fronts keep getting BIGGER and BIGGER...............
causing bigger and MORE TURBULENT WEATHER due to the dramatic differences in the fronts.
Current "experts" see green and think everything's peachy dory..... having only SHRUBS instead of LARGE TREES
THE GREEN NEEDS TO BE LARGE TREE POPULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!
WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....................BEFORE YOU CAN'T!!!!!!!!!!
We need to start NOW because it takes 7 to ten years before a tree is big enough to make a difference.
i CAN'T HELP BUT KEEP FEELING THE NEED TO SAY - WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

while continuing to shoot itself in the foot on the LONG TERM FIX.........EDUCATION
EDUCATING THE POPULACE IS THE LONG TERM FIX FOR EVERYTHING...........AND TO FIND THE ANSWERS FOR EVERYTHING
Short Term buyouts and bailouts are no good when they cause you to cut back on the LONG TERM FIX.............and the LONG TERM DEFICIT DOES NOT BALANCE OUT IN THE LONG RUN.........CUT OUT THE BAND AIDS AND GET OUT THE SIGNIFICANT TOOL - THE UNLIMITED SUPPORT OF EDUCATION FOR ALL WHO WILL LEARN............THEN GREATNESS ONCE AGAIN WILL BE ACHIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!
A higher number of graduates means more new ideas for products expanding our markets and successfully driving our economy.
It also educates people so they can come up with the answers to ALL our other problems..................
My solution to it all? Simple. Go to school, go to college and if you graduate with a significant degree YOUR HIGHER EDUCATION TUITION IS PAID FOR FOR FREE..........
The ones picking up the tab? The Corporations and Businesses who DIRECTLY BENEFIT from the hiring of these individuals....thru taxation - AS THEY SHOULD FOR THEY ARE THE DIRECT RECIPIENTS OF THESE EDUCATED INDIVIDUALS.................
Fail and you PAY IN FULL!!!!!
Excellent motivation to NOT be a screwup.................
The influx of new ideas WILL DRIVE THE ECONOMY TO OUR SUCCESS IN TEN YEARS....... JUST LOOK AT WHAT JAPAN DID PUTTING IT AS A TOP PRIORITY AFTER THE REMAKING OF JAPAN - AND THEY DO IT WITHOUT HAVING THE RAW MATERIALS BECAUSE THEIR COUNTRY'S RAW MATERIALS ARE LIMITED.........TO THEIR POPULACE..............
These Businesses and Corporations keep reaping the benefits of our educated WHILE paying them the smallest amounts possible causing individuals YEARS AND YEARS to pay back education costs which alone discourages most from aspiring to higher dreams........ THEY SHOULD FOOT THE TRUE COST TO GET THE INDIVIDUALS TALENTS...........

I have studied our Earth's Problems over the years and have come up with some Ideas to solve them.
FACTS:
It will cost Trillions and Trillions of dollars to maintain & guard Nuclear Waste against Terrorists / Pollution for the Waste's half-life of 1,000 YEARS OR MORE.
The Space Shuttle Program, Space Station & Space Exploration Projects are HURTING for Money.
There is actually NO SAFE PLACE ON EARTH to store Nuclear Waste for 1,000 YEARS OR MORE!
With our Modern Capabilities we can build Explosion Proof Containers.
MY PROPOSED SOLUTION:
Send with every Shuttle Launch a container or Radioactive Waste to the Space Station.
They collect the Containers and when enough are Present, Strap them together with a rocket and send them off on a capture orbit to the moon.
Doesn't matter how fast they go, just so they end up on the Moon. Would be nice if they end up in about one place.
This accomplishes 3 things:
We won't have to pay Trillions to store AND GUARD for 1,000 years with terrorists/pollution risks - it would cost only a few million. We'd have 999 years of NOT HAVING TO PAY!
All the users of Nuclear Power pay to have Nuclear Waste Disposal, this would mean EVERY SHUTTLE / SPACE LAUNCH WOULD BE PREPAID FOR, SOLVING THEIR SPACE EXPLORATION MONEY CRUNCH. just carry a container with EVERY Launch.
We will have the Nuclear Materials for possible Power on the Moon for Expeditions in the future as we evolve our Waste Disposal Techniques to reuse this material.
Safe execution of this plan with no real risk to the public. EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL TO THE PUBLIC IN THE LONG RUN! BOTH FINANCIALLY AND HEALTHWISE.
As I said before, THERE'S REALLY NO SAFE PLACE ON EARTH TO STORE NUCLEAR WASTE FOR 1,000 YEARS - IT'S ALREADY CAUSING PROBLEMS!!!
MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION!!!
Let me know what you think of this solution.

I disagreeHere's the basis of my opinion. It is illegal to use another's money - time - resources without their permission, to do so is considered a THEFT OF SERVICE. To deny the same Individual the use of his own resources is a DENIAL OF SERVICE. To intrude on an Individual's Privacy is a Constitutional Violation.

Here's the basis of my opinion.
It is illegal to use another's money - time - resources without their permission, to do so is considered a THEFT OF SERVICE.
To deny the same Individual the use of his own resources is a DENIAL OF SERVICE.
To intrude on an Individual's Privacy is a Constitutional Violation.
Now, to address Spammers, Telemarketers, and Junk Mailers - ATTENTION JUDGES!!!!! - FREE SPEECH CAN BE WITHHELD IF YOU'RE COMMITTING A CRIME IN DOING SO!!!!!!!!!!
Free speech rights pertains to public forums ONLY.
In other words when a telemarketer calls, its a crime for what he is doing is a DENIAL OF SERVICE for the Owner of the phone - He can't receive his desired communications. A DENIAL OF SERVICE IN THE COMPUTER WORLD GETS 20 YEARS. It is no less of a crime to do it on a phone - AND THERE IS NO LEGAL DIFFERENCE!!!.
Also THEFT OF SERVICE charges apply. The Telemarketer is accessing personal resources / equipment WITHOUT PERMISSION WHICH CONSTITUTES THEFT OF SERVICE. This misconception of Telemarketer's rights originated back when Ma Bell owned all Phone Equipment and was a public service.
THIS IS NO LONGER THE CASE AND EXISTING LAWS NEED TO BE ENFORCED.
The individual pays, and maintains phone and computer for SELF USE ONLY and it is NOT Public Equipment / Resources which can be used without permission - to do so is ALSO an invasion of privacy and is NOT a public forum where free speech rights are guaranteed.
The ONLY phones Telemarketers have a right to are PAY PHONES for they are public property.
The same applies to the internet and computers. To Impede and disrupt the effectiveness of an individuals resources with spam, forcebly recording it on equipment NOT OWNED BY THE SPAMMER and NOT PUBLIC EQUIPMENT, violating the individuals privacy, STEALING RESOURCES OF MONETARY VALUE FOR THE INDIVIDUAL TO DEAL WITH IT is Illegal. The Same as DENIAL OF SERVICE.
Spammers are COMMITING CRIMES IN NON PUBLIC FORUMS IN ORDER TO "PROMOTE THEIR FREE SPEECH".
Because of the violations of other individuals personal rights and the theft of resources - THEIR RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH IN THIS MANNER MAY BE CONSTITUTIONALLY DENIED!!!! For where these instances of attempted free speech are being done is NOT a public Forum, NOT a public owned resource where free speech is guaranteed. So In doing so, FREE SPEECH RIGHTS DO NOT APPLY.
Now on the subject of Junk Mail If I take my junkmail over to the mall plaza and go to throw it in the garbage dumpster, a sign on the dumpster says $2500 theft of service charge will be applied to unauthorized use.
Here's the clincher - There's NO DIFFERENCE between dumping junkmail in the dumpster or in my mailbox Legally.
Once again the mailbox was put there for my personal use, personally paid for and maintained. To receive desired communications which I ORIGINATE / ELECT to receive.
The use of which unsolicited QUALIFYS AS A THEFT OF SERVICE OR A THEFT OF RESOURCES.
The time an individual has to take to deal with junkmail has monetary value - the stealing of which is a crime when unsolicited.
People go AWWW it only takes a second to deal with it, but tell the family who didn't have a Living room when they saved all their junkmail for a year.
So according to junkmailers it's legal for me to contract the post office or other delivery service to deliver junk cars, debris, unwanted building product, refuse, to the white house to deal with at THEIR EXPENSE.
When you start talking of the expense of constantly dealing with large debris such as cars it WOULD get expensive and would be an OUTRIGHT THEFT of their resources, money and time
THERE IS NO LEGAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS AND WHAT HAPPENS EVERYDAY AT MY MAILBOX
Just because you can pay to have something delivered does NOT mean in any form is legal.
Here's How privacy is supposed to work, I want to buy a car, so I go online and elect to receive solicitations for a period of 1 to 3 months after which my privacy rights are reenacted and all junk mail MUST stop. None of this electing to receive mail from partners crap, where they just change their name and solicit again, the individual must have elected to receive directly (They just keep changing their name saying they are a partner to which you subscribed) Only legal communications are solicited.
The ONLY constitutionally legal means of advertising are newspapers, TV, magazines etc. where the individual ELECTS to purchase said content KNOWING it contains advertising.
This is where the lobbying of politicians has been paying off.
Sad Part is almost everybody doesn't realize their privacy rights AND USE OF their resources are being ignored in the SUPPOSED legal form of free speech.
Once again, Free Speech rights CANNOT be claimed when a CRIME IS BEING COMMITTED IN A NON- PUBLIC AND NON-PUBLIC OWNED FORUM.
The constitution doesn't say anything about jumping through hoops and spending large amounts of money to deny junkmail, spamming, telemarketers to receive privacy rights and right to limit use of PERSONAL RESOURCES to oneself. And the large bulk of spam together, and telemarketers constitutes harrasment
THE JUDGES AND LAWYERS HAVE THE TEETH TO DEAL WITH BUT REFUSE TO USE against spammers, telemarketers, and Junkmailers.
Time to vote some one in who'll enforce existing laws WHICH ARE ADEQUATE.
The garbage in garbage dumps will decrease 2/3's - Fewer trees will need to be cut protecting our resources
Privacy will finally be done and decided by who it's intended for - the individual himself and these problems will have been dealt with according to the Constitution - WHAT A CONCEPT!!!
And the penalty to those commiting these crimes? Payback of all the man hours dealing with their garbage, Uh, let's see, 10 million incidents of spam time times taking each individual's monetary valued time of 1 minute to deal with it its............LIFE IN PRISON!!!!!!
get the picture?Huh

I disagreeThe Government needs to have all Computer Firewall Software reporting Serious Intrusion attempts to a Central Government Monitoring Agency. The Reports of Intrusion would be a Legal Notification of a Crime being committed making It Legal to Hack and Track and Stop Hackers in Real Time without a SEARCH Warrant.

The Government needs to have all Computer Firewall Software reporting Serious Intrusion attempts to a Central Government Monitoring Agency.
The Reports of Intrusion would be a Legal Notification of a Crime being committed making It Legal to Hack and Track and Stop Hackers in Real Time without a SEARCH Warrant.
The Whole problem is by the time the intrusion is discovered they're gone.
The computer it came from can be "categorized" by type to determine importance to preserve privacy while ALL BLINDFOLDS ARE OFF ON THE HACKERS.
Virus Programs should also be reporting "target" IP's for their stolen Info/ access to be able to shut down botnets in Real Time also.

Personally I think Electronic Theft along with this ENABLEMENT is what Destroyed our Economy
Identity Theft along with the Loss of Stock Market Information, Company secrets Etc.
Recognize that there are as many Crooks in Government with access to this information as out here in the Real World.
CLOSE THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY!!!!!
