Interesting.....still reading & poring through this.

EDITS:

OK, read it.....hmm, their bark is worse than their bite.

Unenforceable & impracticable.

:juggle:

Suve the crazy thing is up to now wiley has won

It will be difficult to enforce any favorable decision to wiley & it would no doubt be heavily challenged on all fronts to reverse any such decision in the long run.

It would face mass opposition.

It won't work.

I posted this as news, not political. "Unenforceable & impracticable" I do agree, not will will not be surprised if it leads to other things.

Yes, I agree with you, this is a news article, not political at all.

:pop2:

It's crazy how International Edition of books are like 40-50% cheaper than Domestic Editions but they force teachers to use newer and newer Editions to milk us the Students for everything we have...which isn't a lot.

One of my Teachers said, "We ain't using a book, why? Because they aren't paying a dime to use it so were not gonna use".

Most of my professor's at University used to tell us "you do not need the textbooks as most of the stuff will be in powerpoints." or "We will be using free articles, journal entries to study from." My favourite was that previous text book versions were acceptable.

This could be much bigger then books, hope you guys see the big picture here within that article.

guys, ANYTHING can happen in this world. i wish certain things didn't happen because they were too insane but that is the world we live in. without putting up a fight there will be no way of holding things like this back however it seems that most have lost their fight, they just dont care

People have no care till it effects them, this is bigger then most will believe and if corps figure out they can get away with it everyone will feel the pain.

The big Corporations ARE getting away with stuff now.

Do not think otherwise.

One need only look at using ebay as a selling platform to find the evidence of hypocrisy.

Since Man left the Garden of Eden, there has alway been divison.

Those that have.

Those that have not.

:pop2:

Then you have to factor in the natural balance of life. Both parties will pay by not respecting this balance. I am waiting patiently for this people to wake up :ranger:

sadly most will not wake up because it means they will have to form their own opinion.

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." Thomas Jefferson

btw this goes for a lot more people than just Americans

Hmmm, 90% of the materials used to build my home came from overseas.....

Its a big mess to sort through if they rule in favor.

Could you imagine the uprising if it did pass?

There is no way in hell that 400+ million americans would settle for this...Selling will just become a black market for anything and everything.

Ugh, its never a problem unless the government isn't making money.

These last few months of 2012 will have a big effect on the future in many ways

Slim you know the deal, things are scary but it is what it is. :boink:

Banshee in my opinion whether people realize it or not the people will prevail!
