Big pictures at tops of web articles are annoying.   MSFT JavaScript is still evil.   Videos at the tops of web articles are more annoying than large still images.   Pop-ups are evil; pop-ups that bring up ads when you click on the close X are worse.   Therefore, web-weavers who insert them are evil, and perhaps they should not only be fired but deported or exiled.

  "The Nazi state had been obsessed with collecting data on its citizens [and residents] from the outset.     Everyone was to possess an Ancestor Passport [Ahnenpass], a 48-page booklet that outlined 4 generations of one's family tree to confirm «Aryan» ancestry.     This was in addition to the «Aryan Certificate [Ariernachweis]» that likewise verified one's «Aryan» blood-line.     The Nazi state systematized demographic information in 2 censuses in 1933 and 1939.     Employing state-of-the-art technology, including the IBM Hollerith punch card machine, the regime then used census designations of Jews and «Gypsies» to later locate individuals for persecution and deportation.     The Reich recorded numerous other aspects of its citizens' lives.     Labor Books tracked one's employment history, Health Record Books [like ObummerDoesn'tCare «electronic health records»] tracked one's physical condition, the Registry of the Populace [Volkskartei] itemized one's functional skills and «racial status», and Personal Identification Numbers [like Socialist Insecurity Numbers & Tax-Victim Identification Numbers & «Driver License Numbers»] were to render citizens' [and residents'] information immediately accessible.     In the Nazi state, everyone's life was to be evaluated and abstracted into booklets, index cards, and numbers.     Public Health Offices, with their broad reach into the lives of Reich citizens [and residents], were primary sites of data collection. Personnel could gather individuals' medical recordss, family histories, school reports, «welfare» visits, criminal records, and «social» and economic status, and funnel the information into a Hereditary Index [Erbbiology Kartei/Genetic Biology Cards], distilling lives into standardized forms and files.     While certain Public Health Offices in the Reich had already begun these compilations, the regime's 'Guidelines for the Implementation of the Hereditary Inventory' [Erbbestandsaufname] on 1938 March 23, was to systematize these efforts.     In Austria, a meeting in 1939 disseminated directives for the Hereditary Inventory and involved 250 participants." --- Edith Sheffer 2018 _Asperger's Children: The Origins of Autism in Nazi Vienna_ pp96-97

comparing guest-work visas
All supply excessive numbers of cheap, pliant foreign laborers with flexible ethics.   E-3, H-1B, H-2A, TN, even J-1 are explicitly authorized in laws.   H-1B nods toward those with the equivalent of a bachelor's, master's, or doctor's degree, but do not explicitly require it (though there has been some statistical improvement); has set-asides for guest-workers from Chile & Singapore; has a basic allotment of 65K an explicit exemption of 20K for those with master's or doctor's; has no skill level requirement; las loosey-goosey prevailing local wage requirement & equivalent benefits requirement that are nearly always gamed (though there has been some improvement).   In the last couple decades, 130K-180K have been issued each year (horrendously vastly excessive).   CPT & OPT (riders on F visas) have no limits, no skill level requirments, not local market compensation matching requirements, are exempt from FICA (Socialist Insecurity Extortion), lavishly generous terms, and were not explicitly created nor authorized by law.   H-2B is for cheap cheap cheap non-agricultural labor & low working condition requirements, with no skill level pretensions whatsoever (horrendously vastly excessive).   H-2A is for cheap cheap cheap agricultural labor & low working condition requirements, with no skill level pretensions whatsoever (horrendously vastly excessive).   H-4 EADs (work permits for spouses of H-1B visa grantees) were not explicitly created nor authorized by law, have no skill level requirements, no explicit requirements on compensation & working conditions, and de facto requirements are lower than for the H-1B visa on which it rides (only horrendously vastly excessive for several years, now).   E-3 visas are vastly excessive, but not horrendously vastly excessive.

  "Aspects of the USA legal and criminal-justice systems are better than they have ever been. Compared to a century ago, attorneys and judges have more formal training in the law. Police investigative techniques and technology are incomparably better than they were a century ago. Police are better trained and police forces are (in general) better administered. Most prisons are more humanely designed than they were 100 years ago. Prison guards are better trained and prisons are (in general) better administered." --- Charles Murray 2015 _By the People: ReBuilding Liberty without Permission_ pg31

  "[Werner Villinger] contended that Nazi collectivism was good for mental health.     The Reich offered a single, forceful model for how to be.     Villinger explained, there was 'an over-load in the concepts of freedom and individualism, and a lack of common ideals in child rearing'.     As a result, 'the loss of «authority» in the 1920s led to a particularly large number of difficult children' who were then 'often confused with psychopaths'.     Thankfully, Villinger boasted, National Socialism cleared up these «mental disturbances».     Under Nazism, 'Authoritarian government and youth leadership has made pseudo-psychopathy rarer among difficult children and adolescents.'     Still, he warned that for some children it would be 'impossible to prevent them from spiritually -- often also physically -- infecting healthy, valuable national comrades.'     Thus, Villinger argued, the most difficult children should be put into protective custody. They might become «asocials» or criminals..." --- Edith Sheffer 2018 _Asperger's Children: The Origins of Autism in Nazi Vienna_ pg115

Hear, oh Israel; HaShem our God, HaShem is unique. And you must love HaShem your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.

  "Until 1909, no corporation in the USA was ever charged with a crime; only people working for corporations were.     The prevailing legal doctrine had been that only actual people could have the guilty intent, called mens rea, necessary to be guilty of a crime.     Corporations are paper entities, [abstractions], logos, or buildings -- 'artificial beings', as the supreme court put it in 1819 -- not people capable of making decisions.     In the 1909 case [in the middle of the Regressive era], the high court changed direction [broke precedent, broke stare decisis], ruling that because corporations had grown so big, they needed to be accountable for acts committed by agents acting on their behalf [but not so much the executives who directed or carried out those acts]." --- Steven Brill 2018 _TailSpin: The People and Forces behind USA's 50-Year Fall and Those Fighting to Reverse It_ pg222 (citing Trustees of Dartmouth College v.

  "As Christopher Achen and Larry Bartels [2004 «Musical Chairs: PocketBook Voting and the Limits of Democratic Accountability» https://www.princeton.edu/~bartels/chairs.pdf] observe: «If jobs have been lost in a recession, something iswrong, but is that the president's fault?     If it is not, then voting on the basis of economic results may be no more rational than killing the pharaoh when the Nile does not flood.»     This is especially troublesome under divided government.     If the public holds the president accountable for economic turmoil, then congressmen from the other party might prevent his re-election by doing a bad job.     Alternatively, congress might push popular but counter-productive policies, forcing the president to either veto them (and lose votes for being out of sync with public opinion) or sign them (and lose votes for bad economic performance).     Costly but popular «social legislation» sponsored by the Democrats during the 1988-1992 GHWBush presidency has been interpreted this way.     A final reason not to over-rate out-come-linked voting is that many people have a low threshold for what counts as a ‷result‴. «‷Social‴ ‷scientists‴» conceive of ‷results‴ as things like economic growth, life expectancy, crime rates, or peace.     But politicians habitually equate ‷results‴ with passing legislation [for good or evil] and spending money [wisely, wastefully, constitutionally, un-constitutionally].     How many campaign ads cite ‷achievements‴ like a ‷tough new gun control bill‴?     It would be odd to call this a [positive] ‷result‴ if gun control increases the murder rate [and number or severity of gun-shot wounds {GSWs}]." --- Bryan Douglas Caplan 2007 _The Myth of the Rational Voter: Why Democracies Choose Bad Policies_ pg160

  "When Haz Amin el-Husseini was apointed Mufti (Muslim High Priest) of Jerusalem in 1921 the British government and the Jews had to contend with a formidable opponent.     The new Mufti turned his energies to anti-Zionist agitation and to sabotaging the policy o the Mandate.     His argument was that the Jews were attempting to take away «Palestine» and the Holy Places from the Arabs and that the creation of the British Mandate was the first move in implementing the scheme.     He was believed to be behind the riots that erupted annually from 1921 onwards and in 1933 March he supported the Arab Executive Committee's Manifesto protesting against Jewish immigration and the Jewish purchase of land.     Later, in 1936 April, he headed the Arab movement which proclaimed a general strike throughout the country and formulated 3 demands.     These were the stoppage of Jewish immigration, the prohibition of the sale of land to Jews, and the creation of a «National Representative Government».     When these demands were rejected by the [British government] he led a campaign of terrorism which included not only the destruction of Jewish life, but also an «organized» revolt against the government.     It was officially admitted that the terrorists were not only assisted by mercenaries from over the border (especially from Iraq and Syria) but also by funds and arms from foreign countries.     The 2 countries primarily implicated, though not mentioned at the time, were Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy [collectivist totalitarian dictatorships].     In 1937 June the campaign of terrorism became so effective that the Palestinian government [British government of Palestine=Gaza & Israel & trans-Jordan] was at last impelled, as it announced on 1937 October 1, to «institute action against certain persons whose activities have been prejudicial to the maintenance of the public security in [Palestine=Gaza & Israel & trans-Jordan], and who must thus be regarded as morally responsible for these events».     The mufti of Jerusalem was deprived of his ofice as president of the Supreme Muslim Council and a fortnight laster he escaped in disguise to [French] Beirut.     After the war, attempts were made by Jews and many Englishmen to get the grand-mufti tried as a war criminal.     These attempts, however, failed and the mufti withdrew to Egypt where he was officially received by king Farouk and given a palace.     He now [1971] lives in the Lebanon and is still politically active." --- Randolph S. Churchill & Winston S. Churchill 1971 _The 6 Day War_ pp10-11
