In reply to the discussion: NSA Spying Not Very Focused on Terrorism: Power, Money and Crushing Dissent Are Real Motives Ops [View all]RobertEarl
(13,685 posts)17. Everyone knows it, right?
That is what I keep reading on DU. Heck, I knew it. Didn't KNOW it really, but had this conspiracy theory going that they were conspiring to listen....
I am not paranoid, I know they are watching me.....<grin>
Even those who were afraid of thinking the world actually had conspirators, now believe in conspiracies, and are even theorizing themselves, what do we do?
Do we make it so that all info gathered is plastered on the internet? That basically everyone has a Facebook page and the NSA daily posts what we are up to? We could start with our government officials. Foreign and domestic, and see how it goes from there?

OP
Agreed. Dirt on a key politician is worth money, potentially a lot of money.

I'm trying to figure out why they wiretapped Howard Baker; he was a moderate Republican?

What if they used it to, eh, filter out those who opposed their wars for profit?

We either strip corporations of their power, or they will soon finish the job of stripping us
