Many people understand the inherent issues in free markets with corruption, mob style attacks on competitors and the need to protect consumers from fraud and theft. In our nation we have regulations on business that often are too restrictive for us to continue to call our economy one of Free Markets.

Those who defend such intervention and lambaste the laisse faire motif say things such as; “If economic markets were free, the government wouldn’t interfere. If the markets were manipulated, the government would interfere.”

Infringement. File sharing. Piracy. Counterfeiting. Plagiarism.

Whatever you call it, the theft of copyrighted material is just about impossible to control in our ever-expanding, ever-increasing digital age. In fact, there is a widely held belief that technology has made copyright impossible to enforce.

Take the entertainment industry, for example:

While all school children are taught the dangers of plagiarism of print materials when they write their first term papers, many of these same kids are some of the greatest offenders who believe that internet file sharing of their favorite music is their due simply for being fans of this or that rock or rap group.

Most shareholders believe a corporation protects them from personal liability. This is generally true unless alter ego is successfully asserted.

Alter ego is an equitable claim that a corporation should be set aside in a lawsuit and the shareholders held personally liable for a debt. The theory was antiquated and rarely used. In recent years, it has seen a rebirth as many small business corporations are formed using cheap online services. While these services file the entity with the state, there is no real follow up or guidance in regard to how the entity is actually supposed to function. This, of course, leads to alter ego claims and disaster for the shareholders.

This is truly the information age and the need to pass information is constantly growing. Internet shopping is expanding rapidly, as is the concept of online banking, credit cards and financial sites such as PayPal. With this increase in financial information being sent over the World Wide Web, it’s really no wonder that we’ve also seen an increase in identity fraud and identity theft. Information about people, including their personal, work and credit information is easily accessed by anyone who has access to just some of your personal information. Most of that information comes from bank and credit card statements and other mail, both email and postal mail, that you dump without worrying about.

Encountering a disastrous vehicular accident that can cause upon the victim a life threatening personal injury or even an instant death is definitely not a joke. Expect that when a vehicle accident happened, the resulting personal injuries are severe. The most common cause of these vehicular accidents usually points out to the negligent action or inaction of another person, usually a reckless driver, a drunk driver or a driver taking prohibited drugs. Of course, we do not have any control over these drivers on the roads. What we can control is just our own driving. We can be careful and follow the speed limit set on a particular road, street or highway. By doing this, at least we are trying to lessen if not prevent the chances of us getting involve in a vehicular accident.

DUI recidivism is a major problem in the war on drunk driving. The original mission of the organization Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) was to prevent repeat offenders and chronic alcohol abusers from committing drunk driving offenses as that was the main crux of the DUI problem our nation faces.
