Draw your own conclusions.
Tsk Tsk, Sean, are we seeing a case of, "If you cannot refute their
statements with facts assassinate their character?"

When the laws are written by the criminals, their acts are no longer
criminal, evn though their actions are underhanded and immoral.
It does lead one to conclude that if "pop" is the lawyer for Commerce
and Technology and innovation is actually curtailed instead of inspired,
then the criminals are writing the laws.
