“... we are obliged to produce the truth by the power that demands truth and needs it in order to function: we are constrained, we are condemned to admit the truth or to discover it. Power constantly asks questions and questions us; it constantly investigates and records; it institutionalizes the search for the truth, professionalizes it, and rewards it. ... In a different sense, we are also subject to the truth in the sense that truth lays down the law: it is the discourse of truth that decides, at least in part; it conveys and propels effects of power.” NeedsDifferentLawOrderAsksRecordsSubjectsEffectsProduceDemandFunctionLaysRewardsDiscourseObligedKnowledge And Power Author:Michel Foucault
“Law-abiding Americans deserve to know that their government will not secretly tap their phones, read their medical records, access their library accounts or otherwise invade their personal lives, with no oversight or accountability. Law-abiding Americans also deserve to know that when law enforcement can show an impartial judge clear evidence of criminal activity or a threat to national security, swift and decisive action will be taken to protect the public. That is the balance we must achieve.” KnowsShowsGovernmentActionLawTakenClearRecordsAchieveSecurityJudgingBalanceActivityProtectEvidenceDeserveAccountsThreatLibraryPhonesCriminalsAccessMedicalAccountabilityPersonal LifeNational SecurityLaw EnforcementEnforcementAbidingOversightDecisive ActionMedical Records Author:Ralph Neas

“I would have government defend the life and property of all citizens equally; protect all willing exchange; suppress and penalize all fraud, all misrepresentation, all violence, all predatory practices; invoke a common justice under law; and keep the records incidental to these functions.

“I value my core fans I got from the hood. I think a lot of things might hit home with them, like problems with the law or how I talk about partying - all the different topics I cover when I do rap. But I also value my suburban fans who take a liking to my music and like the way I change cadences. I appreciate all of them cause both types of fans push me to record all the time, both push me to give my best when I do a show. Both push me to be the best rapper and not just do it as a hobby, but do it as a job and take it seriously and put pride in it.” ThinkingWayGivingDifferentShowsProblemHomeMightJobsLawValuesCausesPartyRecordsFansPrideTypeAppreciateRapCoreBeing The BestRapperHobbiesTopicsJust Do ItHoodCadenceBest Rapper Author:Gucci Mane

“The government's collection authority, under the Patriot Act, is basically limitless. They can get the medical records and financial records, gun purchase records.
