Not that knowing that the American government is corrupt is news. However, they're now building a gigantic monument to their own evil, nosey ways. Billions of dollars that could've gone into something more positive. Not even, apparently, to be used to spy on possibly inimical other governments. Primarily to be used on common, poor American folk and to say all of it is aimed only at finding terrorists is as absurd as an abstract painting.

The admins at DU don't want to know it but this, the fact that it's Bush and Obama and the fact that it seems no democrats have so much as objected to this goes to show that there's something going on beyond Republicans vs. Democrats and the dems are just as lowdown. I don't intend to get my thread locked, but, really, why are no dems objecting to this unless they approve of it. What affairs associated contemporarily with the democratic party or the freedoms of the Constitution or the Declaration of Human Rights that this country signed and even drafted does such a site as Bluffdale serve aside from moving us toward a police state or some other peculiar future?
