The Department of Homeland Stupidity is at it again. They are now vigorously enforcing copyright law. Why?
How does this make our homeland safer from foreign and domestic threats?
Shouldn’t they be spending their resources on matters of national security instead of worrying about who is downloading the new Star Wars movie? Here’s the DHS’s mission statement, in case anyone is unsure what they’re supposed to be doing.”
This is another example of why big government is bad. We don’t need a giant overlord agency in this country.
Shortly after the Department of Homeland Stupidity was created, I had to call 911 on their ass. It was an ineffective ploy on my part, but it made me feel that I at least had registered my displeasure in some small way.
The reason I called 911 on the DHS – I was traveling on a local interstate when one of their white cargo vans passed me going well above 100 MPH. The emergency lights were not on, and the van was not responding to any national security threat. Cargo vans are not designed to go 110 MPH and weave in and out of traffic. This was just some government employee taking advantage of their position to drive recklessly.
The DHS is just one giant invitation for bureaucrats to abuse the power of government. I realize it was created to make individual agencies more responsible to a central authority, but I haven’t seen any massive improvements in the effectiveness of the federal government, nor do I expect too anytime soon. The Department of Homeland Stupidity is not doing a damn thing to move the United States any closer to being the land of the free and the home of the brave.
More bureaucracy will always lead to additional problems and never to viable solutions. This is clearly evidenced when you have a federal government so bloated with unnecessary management that your “security team” has a division enforcing copyright law and trademark infringement.
If the United States Government was really interested in security, it would be cutting red tape and trimming departments instead of creating whole new cadres of overlords. Too many chiefs and not enough Indians, stupid.
