'This is holiday, think different future'
om maar even een bruggetje te maken met iets
dat we anno-nu wellicht een nuclear test mogen noemen:

'For about 20 minutes in April, a state-owned Chinese telecommunications firm rerouted massive amounts of Internet traffic, including from U.S. military and government networks, through Chinese servers before sending it on its way, according to a Congressional commission report out today.'
Etc.

Wie vertegenwoordigt wie in de Amerikaanse democratie?
Helft congresleden VS is miljonair
Ongeveer de helft van de Congresleden in de VS is miljonair. Van deze 261 miljonairs hebben er 55 zelfs een vermogen dat de 10 miljoen dollar overstijgt. Acht van hen bezitten zelfs meer dan 100 miljoen dollar. De Californische Republikein Darrell Issa overtreft iedereen met ruim 300 miljoen dollar.
Bovendien is hun vermogen tussen 2008 en 2009 zelfs met 16 procent toegenomen, ondanks de recessie. Dat heeft het Center for Responsive Politics donderdag bekendgemaakt in een studie. "Maar erg weinig parlementsleden hebben te maken met de financi?le nood waarmee miljoenen Amerikanen kampen", zei Krumholz, directeur van het Center for Responsive Politics.
Van de 'gewone' Amerikaanse burgers is hooguit 1 procent miljonair.
