Schneier's allegations require that you believe a known non-trustworthy person (Edward Snowden)'s own allegation for that to be true.
When all of that can be brought to bear in a US court with Snowden et al in custody, then you can start talking about it as truth when it is proven to be truth.
By only hiring the liars that are able to escape detection, aren't they effectively guaranteeing corruption throughout the agency? Isn't that effectively what this policy means?
A lot of that departure was driven by the political climate in the 1980s, which was to exact vengance on those industries and their supporters. The finishing blow came when the opposition encouraged non-assimilating immigrants to flood in. To a limited extent, that's playing out in current-day United States, except through various actions.
What Thatcher (and the financial interests she enabled) couldn't kill, the opposition managed to finish off through importation of non-assimilating individuals from the Third World.
I'd suspect this, it puts the kitchen sink on top of everything, it's a hell of a way to introduce copious amounts of subtle exploits.
Libertarian Party does not equal libertarianism. I think the dilution of the word libertarian has been very deliberate. The fundamental ideal of libertarianism is simply the minimization of the threat or use of force in society.
We need to separate employers from healthcare anyways.
Only if you don't like the benefits coming from economies of scale. Those disappear even in the ACA.
You can enjoy your second-tier care with an small employer while I'll enjoy less sacrifice with a direct-hire/non-contractor employer that can use economies of scale to provide more benefits per dollar.
In the future I expect more and more small businesses and boutiques. You can run a small yet profitable business with just two or three people.
Never mind that you are operating in a high-failure part of the private sector with people that cannot really afford to fail. That, and you have no scale to offset purchase costs, especially those relating to benefits.
