Good or bad for business?

[Hell Puppy]

In terms of prosecution it should be good for business.

First off, porn on the internet should be safe overall from a "bigger fish to fry" type perspective. I dont remember hearing it even mentioned in his "blue print".

We'll know more when we find out who his Attorney General is and get some inkling of the agenda there. My gut says they go after corporate corruption, wall street, banks, etc, all big scores that will play well with the masses and attack capitalists.

The long term legacy is with the Supreme Court. Expect him to appoint Justices as far to the left as he can possibly get approved. That's good for porn. However, the two oldest are Stevens and Ginsberg, both of which already typically vote liberal. Should one of the conservative Justices turn up ill and retire, then things get interesting as the balance tilts toward a more liberal court.

Possible downsides? I could see taxes on all internet transactions in our future, and that also gives the government lots of information about what we do and how much we do.

Similar thoughts on where the justice department should be directing its attention. Go after the real thieves in the implosion of the financial system...

Yep, this is the part that worries me the most... *sigh*
