I answer:

John, this is right on topic for this list. I don't participate in
most of the crazy polarized political drivel found here, but I won't
apologize for discussing this subject. It is relevant and current,
and pertains to our industry. It's neither Democrat nor Republican,
Conservative nor Liberal. It hits directly on issues that are of
interest to those on this list.
That being said, I think the article cited is fear-mongering,
intending only to drum up buzz for an issue that's not accurately
being represented in the article.
