[Cackle]. Yep, I see those "Click it or ticket" billboards all around the
People's Republic of Austin, which is a blessed safe zone from the
surrounding madness. Those fines weigh heaviest on the working-class and
communities of color, of course.

Throw in the millions of adults who have downloaded the slightest bit of
copyrighted content (punishable by a felony conviction and $250,000 in
fines), miscellaneous other assorted fines, misdemeanors and malfeasances,
and the Land of the Free has criminalized most of its population.
