What FDR did back then was wrong and ignorant. We know better now, doing what he did really made no better protection. Imprisoning the Japanese is far worse than the Patriot Act.
Patriot Act isn't as bad as most are making it out to be. They monitor calls going out of the country only. They only are interested in calls that may have to do with terrorism. The government doesn't care about your personal life or your business.
Unless your a terrorist, I don't see what the big problem is with this. Yes their prying in on our calls- I just don't see what the big deal is.
