“A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: And a people who mean to be their own Governors, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.” - James Madison in a letter to William T. Barry, 1822 If someone really want's to know, he/she has to read a lot, "Youtube" and such likes will not cater to the one who want's to know what's going on around him and what is changing legally and technologically...

From that one article: " Of the seven major TV networks, three are government-owned, but only one — NBN — is under the government’s operational control.

Here something more interesting than not existing UFO's. STATEMENT OF SENATOR CARL LEVIN (D-MICH) BEFORE U.S. SENATE PERMANENT SUBCOMMITTEE ON INVESTIATIONS ON OFFSHORE PROFIT SHIFTING AND THE U.S. TAX CODE September 20, 2012 America stands on the edge of a fiscal cliff. This challenge lends new urgency to a topic this subcommittee has long investigated: how U.S. citizens and corporations have used loopholes and gimmicks to avoid paying taxes. This subcommittee has demonstrated in hearings and comprehensive reports how various schemes have helped shift income to offshore tax havens and avoid U.S. taxes.

U.S. multinational corporations benefit from the security and stability of the U.S. economy, the productivity and expertise of U.S. workers and the strength of U.S. infrastructure to develop enormously profitable products here in the United States. But, too often, too many of these corporations use complex structures, dubious transactions and legal fictions to shift the profits from those products overseas, avoiding the taxes that help support our security, stability and productivity.
