In intelligence, we must decide [quickly] on how much we trust the source. If I call on my cell phone registered to me, surely we can validate this, we have the technology. If I call through an anonymous VoIP hub, perhaps we don't immediately act on this intel.

I agree 100% But permit me to add some other use cases. the chance of me wanted to play an older video game is pretty low.
But the chance of me wanting to watch a 10 yo TV show, or listen to 10yo music is alot higher. So, personally, I still use steam, but I also try to find bluerays on sale, and make sure I have the .mp3s in hand.

I live in a county with high taxes, and because I have a good job I don't mind.
But it is common understanding here that things like high property taxes "force out" retirement-age people. And most people move out of this county when they retire.

...can be reversed
I agree with most of your post except this part. The idea that vasectomies are something you just reverse when you now want to have kids is not a recommendation that I know of.

Now you've got me thinking. As a preegressive, I don't mind taxes per-se, but I do hate that there are 100 different taxes. This makes me think this is an intentional way to taxes in "use" taxes so it's hard to see and track just how much you really pay.

thanks for this succinct analysis. This is the first time I've read something that made me think on /. in about 3 months.
