Have you ever considered that your hypothesis is incorrect?
No, it's much more satisfying to rape you until you beg me to forgive your disrespect.
No charges files.
Brave maybe, but the "awesomeness" of blogging about it is likely to backfire. It is unwise to publicly accuse someone of something as serious as attempted rape and not make a formal complaint to police. It's also unwise to blog about it until after the Judge has finished hammering his desk.
Complete and total nonsense designed to trick non-technical people.

The "government" WAS the boomers. They made this promise to themselves and put the bill on a group of people who were not even born yet.
Woah slow down there, I am a "boomer" (but not of the US variety), today's government is staffed by boomer's but until very recently it WAS staffed by WW2' war babies and before that WW2 veterns. Mandatory superannuation contributions (paid directly to the fund by your employer) started here in Oz in the late 80's, the funds are invested in approved managed funds and basically ride along with the ups and downs of the economy, however the funds offer all sorts of options as to where to invest your money (eg: gold, stocks, green tech, bricks and mortar, etc) you can even set up your own fund if you are into that sort of thing. The government doesn't owe me a penny, but it has forced me to save for my retirement in a way that I can't get at it until I'm 55 and penalizes me with double the tax for taking a lump sum and blowing it all before I'm 60. I just turned 54, mine is staying where it is for at least another 10yrs, then I probably sell up and move to the country closer to my three grandkids (where I can buy a house outright with the equity I have in my current home). Another good feature is that you can't lose an account due to job hoping, homelessness, ect. The government tracks inactive accounts via tax file numbers and "parks" them in a default (low yield, high security) fund until they are reclaimed/returned.
At the end of the day this sort of enforced saving regime makes my own 80yr old parents a lot less expensive for society to maintain in a humane manner, they faithfully invested in super every month without being forced to by the government and currently receive a pension of $0.00 from the government and have just returned from a holiday to the grand canyon. The reason that we have things like taxpayer funded pensions is that humans don't want to see grandma (or her friends) tossed on the scrap heap after doing their bit to build and maintain our civilization. It's also key to reducing the number of offspring a society produces to ensure they are looked after in their old age, and finally the funds themselves play an important role in building the infrastructure that keeps us all from starving to death.
Anyway, believe me when I say it really won't be long before you are thinking to yourself where did the last 30yrs go and how the hell am I going to afford to enjoy retirement.
I bet we had people just like you back then, telling everyone it's too hard, no one cares and we shouldn't do anything.
We Aussies took that route and the end result was pretty much the same. The closest we came to a revolution was a handful of gold miners getting shot at by some cops. The evolution of society is far more complex than portrayed in HS history class, the Boston Tea Party is seen as a significant event but it would have been futile if the existing society was not already intellectually primed for it. These singular momentous events are often more symbolic than anything else and are nearly always selected in hindsight. Australia's Eureka stockade is a fine example of a small group of revolutionaries with a valid (and popular) complaint against the crown who failed miserably to inspire those around them to join in, a more modern example would be the OWS crowd.
There's a conscious effort on to portray Obama as a Cold War leader.
Obama has always portrayed himself as MLK's "dream" and JFK's ghost all rolled into one. Not dissimilar to how Jesus portrayed himself as the "lamb" that was prophesied in the old testament. He certainly has the eloquence of the civil rights leaders but it will be a couple of generations before anyone can tell if he has had as much significance.
The recent UN compromise between Putin & Obama to work towards a caretaker government in Syria looks promising from a humanitarian and civil rights POV, but it's to the great shame of both nations that it's taken them 2yrs of bloodshed to get that far.
How much does the NSA then pay for the bugs?
Doesn't matter, they have 300 million pin numbers to choose from?
So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of money? -- Ayn Rand
