This is not an anti-US rant (just disclaiming in case I get arrested)

Everywhere I look, the "Land of the Free" seems to become less so every day - the single highest prison population in the world (ironic, isn't it) and a serious boatload of stupid laws and rules designed to make the rich richer faster, while keeping the "normal" people "normal". Broadcast flag? huh? how stupid is is that? DMCA? that is like "I don't care what you are up to but I don't like it, go to jail" card. With all the silly restrictions and such, I fail to see how you are significantly Free-er then anyone else.....
