Military adventurism, overly harsh sentencing, and illegally spying on our own citizens are not simply wasting a day at the keyboard. They are actively harming all of us.

I'm not just talking about an issue that affects large organizations. I have never feared imprisonment from Apple, MSFT, or Amazon. I have never made involuntary payments to any of them. Steve Ballmer can't stop and frisk me for weapons on the street b/c he fears for his safety. Sure big companies have waste and inefficiency, but it's at a much lower level than the federal government.
