Every slashdot story contains a few comments on the lines of "I may not be an expert in scientific/engineering discipline X, but as a computer science graduate, it seems obvious to me that you should just do Y and here's a link to a small PERL script to do exactly that."

There are a few people that organize their money using envelopes. They have a specific limit and envelope for each category and when they pay for things they take it out of the proper envelope. When there's no more money in that envelope, no more buying of those types of things.

So if your food envelope's empty, you starve, even if the booze and hookers one is still full up?

Crazy talk.

That doesn't stop a certain portion of people from deciding that these protections don't apply to non-citizens, and this sadly includes some judges. I'm not sure where they think that leaves anyone with a green card or a visa.

Didn't the US sign and ratify the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights? Which states in article 14 some interesting things those judges might want to read up on.
