NSA Social Network

Post by D5CAV »

Here's an idea: Have Goldman Sachs IPO the NSA. After all, your information at Facebook and Google is what gives them their combined $700 billion market capitalization.

... here's a thought for the cash-strapped US government: when the Fed is no longer able to monetize the US deficit, the NSA can just hire Goldman to IPO the NSA "social network." It should raise at least a few hundred billion in cash.
Regarding those lost IRS emails, they are just a keystroke away:
And tangentially, for those who are urging the NSA to release Lois Lerner's emails, all it would take are a few keystrokes:

“If I had wanted to pull a copy of a judge’s or a senator’s e-mail, all I had to do was enter that selector into XKEYSCORE,” one of the NSA’s main query systems, [Edward Snowden] said.
What the file would likely reveal is all the dirt the US intelligence apparatus had on said (Supreme Court) judge or senator, or IRS employee. After all, what better way to keep the system of "checks and balances" in check than to have dirt on all the key places of leverage.
