The problem is that there aren't any truly capitalist states, nor has one ever existed. The capitalists you think are persecuting these ochlocratic countries are just a just a bit more capitalist than they are. A truly capitalist state would be vastly more harmonious and progressive than most any other kind of state, the misery and repression begin when capitalism begins to slip into fascist corporatism. At least IMHO.

I'm pretty sure the River Styx freezing with Aphrodite and Helen of Troy ice skating naked while Dionysus hands out brews and bags of trainwreck is less mythological than the possibility that Greece's economy will start looking up with the current megasocialist nanny state political mindset going on over there. "Crypto" currency is right, like...literally.

Every geek should be a good netNeighbor or netRelative and suggest or guide anyone we care about or don't wish to be fucked over by .gov/corporations/prick wardriving kids and suggest something along the lines of DD WRT or TomatoUSB on their routers that may be ripe targets...maybe even offer to help them secure them, I'm getting pissed at all this crap that is going to get all of them and us reamed. I also like the idea of sticking it to all the evil and/or stupid bastards that let this stuff happen. I let an elderly neighbor of mine know a few months ago by naming my SSID something that might alert their kids or whomever is their "IT expert" (who happened to her daughter) to email a disposable account I set up so I could explain what was up and I spent 20 minutes getting it going for them. I told her to let me know if it needed any fixing with another one-time email anytime remotely. But really, Toastman's TomatoUSB is very stable and needs hardly any tweaking or fixing...probably less than stock firmware. Especially for the crappy Cisco FW that was on it - disaster waiting to happen. They are even on 5ghz N band now, the only other one than me (I'm on both 2.4 & 5). PS InSSIDer is a great wireless app.
