I think any case where there is suspicion of wrongdoing should be examined. I also think the military should do a better job of treating its members as if they are innocent until proven guilty. That is my primary complaint. Anyone who is given the power to kill on behalf of a nation state or other government body should be watched very carefully and judged when necessary. However, when you put someone into combat you damn well better tread lightly if the thought of charging them with murder even crosses your mind. You're paying them to kill the enemy and in war sometimes everyone looks like the enemy. I don't think anyone who hasn't been in actual combat should ever sit in judgement of a man they sent to be in combat. Is that clear enough?

I tend to agree with you Hoa. States have every right to secede. If one did, however, I think it would promptly be invaded by the feds and forced back into line. Because that's our fake freedom in the 21st century.

Lee,

Call back. Ask for a manager. Have your proof of account ownership ready. Above all, remain calm and patient. The initial rep will argue but insist in a relaxed tone of voice that you want a manager. Mention that you are writing about your experience with XBOX tech support for (blog, newspaper editorial, etc.)

Don't call anyone a cunt or bastard - they may well be those things but it is not relevant to getting your problem solved and mentioning it an an angry tone of voice will only slow down or stop the process of getting your account back. Do you have a Microsoft Live account?

Hi Hoa,

Yes, I believe in the smallest government possible to maintain basic order in a society. I'm not sure exactly how small that is but I do know what we have in the United States in 2009 is bloated. We are not the land of the free we claim to be. Fiat money won't be replaced until a major social upheaval occurs and I fear that will have to involve some type of revolution. What should replace fiat money? Anything that isn't faith based.

The fed is a behemoth that has too much power. It needs to be humbled.

Are we really shareholders? I for one do not feel like a shareholder. I feel more like an oppressed minority forced to pay for a system with which I have deep rooted moral issues. It's not an evil system, on the face of things, but it certainly needs a lot of change to be considered a good system.

I think you're being a little dramatic and assuming that I wouldn't hire someone else to do the checking if government didn't insist on having a certification monopoly in regards to various service sectors like health care. There is no perfect system and there are lots of dishonest doctors under the current system. Many of them defraud Medicare because it is so easy.

Here's a question - which is more important: freedom of choice or being "protected" from one's own actions?

In regards to monopolies, isn't the government in and of itself a monopoly? If monopolies are bad then why is there a master monopoly on forcing others to follow the rules?
