This WOP fully supports this strategy. If the property is not yours, then why are you trying to steal it. There is a lot of problem with theft in today's society and that tells the WOP that they want to be caught. We support the Obama administration in creating this security. In the long run, there would be no need for buy new computers because of a possible planted virus. This would, in turn, cut down on the spending and increase on the saving.
The RP applauds the Obama administration on their intiative to increase cyber security across the globe. The agrees with the administration that hacking should be treated as any other attack or threat on a country. Without an increase in cyber security, countries would be vulnerable to terrorist attacks. Also, hackers could gain confidential information, putting countries at an even higher risk of attack.
The Metamorphic Party is in total agreement with The Obama administrations proposal of creating an international computer security system. The MP believes that a change needs to be done to stop the rising theft increasing in our nation and all over the world as well. With this plan we hope to see the intellectual property theft decrease. Forget the rest, get with the best. We are the Change!
