re: #208 Absalom, Absalom, Obdicut

Again, what are the grounds for saying it’s illegal? What constitutional right has been violated and what harm has been done to you?

It occurred to me that this is the same convoluted argument I keep hearing from people who are paranoid about the new “smart” electric meters and are refusing to allow the power companies to swap out the old meters or if they DO get the new meters, they cover them in aluminum foil (for realz!!).
Their argument is that the power company (read=ebil gubmint) has no right to spy on their electric usage…especially via some super sekret radio waves.
There’s absolutely no explaining this to them.
