Mr. Caswell sums up the overall game plan of government agencies:
“It’s bullying by the government. And it’s a huge waste of taxpayer money,” Caswell told the Boston Herald. “This has been a huge financial and physical toll. It’s thrown our whole family into turmoil. You work for all your life to pay for something and these people come along and think it’s theirs. It’s just wrong. The average person can’t afford to fight this.”Aguanomics: Aaron Swartz, RIP
