Rand Paul is pretty openly pro-encryption. Hillary Clinton is equivocating; I think she's probably anti-encryption. These may be exceptions that prove the rule but I think what we're really seeing is a combination of ignorance, pandering and authoritarianism across the spectrum.
Damn, we need her on our side as a proven expert in computer security and privacy.
Google donates how much to both sides?
However - I found this video of someone hacking Hillary's server encryption
At the time I wrote to my representative Bob Stump and he went and talked with Hollings and sent me a synopsis of their conversation.
It was Warren Buffett who said that we have had class warfare, and that his class won. So true.
Edit: this was not meant to be snark, just an indication that, in the context of this particular thread/discussion, he's a Republican. The parent had a valid question, please stop downvoting him/her.
Rand Paul is libertarian and mostly anti-gov. We need more people like him in Washington.
I would no sooner put a anti-gov politician in charge than hire a manager who's opposed to the existence of the team he's managing.
Please no sexism, classism, and racism in choosing people. Best people for the job regardless of their income tax bracket or their skin color. Just put people in office that understand how to run a country and limit the powers of government.
That said, I'm not advocating quotas, and frankly speaking I'm all in favor of getting rid of sexism, classism, and racism.
But my money's on, if we did, our politicians at all levels of government would better reflect who they represented.
If they aren't, what can we do to remove that bias and get what you ask for?
If they are, what's preventing other groups from gaining competence?
The reality is that different cultures value different things and pursue different dreams. Only politicians benefit by peddling the agenda that some other group is keeping another group down. As an Indian education was extremely valued in the family, education not only ensured prosperity but status and excellent marriage opportunities. Automatically academic and intellectual success is something I have pursued and probably my children would do the same. My parents sold many items to put me through colleges and I would do the same for my kids. White Americans on other hand have different concepts of status, a football player is considered as cool where as smart boy is considered nerd. Guess who gets more dates ?
USA was founded on the principle that people should be free to pursue their own values. What we do not want is politicians forcing needless values on us.
That is how you get ever expanding bureaucracy, regulatory overreach, kingdom building and information silos. Those who can see beyond their own team and work to make their department irrelevant are exactly the kind of people you want as managers in your company.
Groups do well when they enjoy freedom, chase opportunities freely, compete and drink less. Not when someone from their community is elected.
You are completely wrong about the manager aspect. A good manager will always keep the team lean, less red tape and maximize the freedom of the team members as well as the customers they are serving. managers on other hand will always claim their more resources which they will spend on their own lavish lifestyle and problems that did not need solving in first place. Obama is a good example.
