PATRIOT Act Crystal Ball

Way back when, in the days when the Congress rammed through the USA PATRIOT Act in record time, plenty of folks were going sorta batshit and saying that this was a huge fucking disaster that would unload a myriad of injuries to legitimate freedom and actual personal liberty in the United States, and all the establishment assholes pretended not to understand.  Well, the more you know, the worse it gets; the shit the US government does everyday is 100% legal and 100% inevitable.  Nothing is going to change.  There will not be a concerted political effort to make such conduct no longer legal, and the PATRIOT Act will not be sunsetted or repealed.  Without the will to fight for freedom, well, you know the rest.
