#13If the United States’ populace elects its officials, why do the representatives act against the populace’s wishes?
Is this typical of all governments with elected representation? Are they solving different organizational problems that most people are not aware of? I am curious how such a system arises, maintains itself, and is resilient to change.

#14Can someone explain this? What is illegal streaming? Streaming copyrighted content?
Isn't that already illegal?

#15"Last year, one study reported that digital video piracy costs the U.S. economy $29.2 billion a year." Well, I'd say that it in fact saves $30 billion a year. People can use it to buy more important stuff - such as food.
It's a common misconception that piracy is a loss of business. It's nothing more than an overestimation in profits.
How can companies say they lose profit when the only realistic way I see for that is someone getting a refund and spending it on a competitor?

#16For those of us not familiar with the US legal system. What are the implications?
Felons often cannot vote, cannot get jobs working with children, have difficulty finding housing, etc.

I read on a post somewhere that if you replace "the economy" with "rich people yatch money" a lot of headlines make more sense.
"Last year, one study reported that digital video piracy costs the U.S. rich people yatch money $29.2 billion a year."

As if those $29B would have been purchased if not watched illegally...
