A critical piece of the vulture capital scam now is basically prohibited. It will be hard to use leasebacks to strip mine assets while pretending everything is rosy at the debt zombie company. Presumably the goobers from Goldman will probably go 360 head spinning Paulson style once the shit hits the fan and cause this rule to get rolled back.
Maybe. Aside from contact info, I'm not sure what they have that Dunn & Bradstreet don't. In any case, the Snowden leaks are already proof enough -- they are wiretapping and surveilling anyone of consequence. Cryptogon, as usual, has the best speculation on the matter.
Not content to merely let every branch of the military do it, I see. Not surprising, as Obomber's "curtailment" was mostly window dressing for PR's sake.
Apparently measuring time with more precision causes small gravity wells where it is being more precisely measured. In this way, relative time slows and mass increases. If this relationship is proven to be true, it suggests that gravity (and entropy!) may actually be how we are observing fourth dimensional effects in the third dimension. This actually makes a lot of sense.
