Well hopefully then this deal will give us access to cheaper lubricant because we're going to need it.

Actually it's more of a 'hiss' followed by a hail of bullets

pshhh! don't be ridiculous, a government official couldn't possibly be corrupt! Nixon will be turning in his grave

They'll be firing tear gas into your blanket fort quicker than you can say "constitution"

Wait... are you trying to suggest that a government would put the interests of big businesses and millionaires before that of the people? Actually.. upon half a second of reflection I have now come to the conclusion that you're right.

I'm so excited by this. I love surprises.

I've seen Idiocracy a few times over the years. The first time it seemed like a clever little comedy. The third or fourth time it felt like David Lynch had branched out into comedy but still managed to keep the scathing edge to his social commentary. A few years later and by the 5th time through it was a dark and harrowing 'found footage' horror akin to the style of the blair witch project. Now it feels like a documentary about Earth made by a concerned extraterrestrial aid charity.

Detaining a person against their will without any evidence followed by threats in an attempt to obtain their private data - is criminal behavior. Call me old fashioned but I miss the days of 'innocent until proven guilty'. Using past examples of government failure to warrant sacrificing personal liberties of the future is tenuous justification. Nobody is above the law - I'll suddenly remember my passwords as soon as the people we entrust to run our countries stop losing evidence that implicates themselves or their financiers. To *force* people to reveal all of their private data in the hope of catching minor criminals when the enforcing party has covered up war crimes, pedophile rings and implemented lobbyist driven laws for personal gain? Yep, can't quite seem to remember any password at all.
