On this week’s episode of the Resistance Library Podcast Dave and Sam discuss the USA PATRIOT Act.
The USA PATRIOT Act provides a textbook example of how the United States federal government expands its power. An emergency happens, legitimate or otherwise. The media, playing its dutiful role as goad for greater government oversight, demands "something must be done." Government power is massively expanded, with little regard for whether or not what is being done is efficacious, to say nothing of the overall impact on our nation's civil liberties.
This episode takes an in-depth look at what’s in the Act, its destruction of civil liberties, and the dangers of hasty legislation with no regard to the Constitution.
