Debería hacer esto en español, pero dudo que muchos entendieran... So... I received this e==Discovery=====The USBM E-mail, from "The Bureau of Morality". They know that i've been watching subversive material, so they're warning me to stop or i'll pay the consequences. We seem to be getting the e-mails all over (I've had one in Wales and I have no links to Mexico - but judging by the email address it was sent to it's linked to The Spiral).They put this link on http://www.thepriceoftreason.net, so you can see what could happen if YOU keep trying to help. That's The Price of Treason. In some of the cases listed there, they mention the mexican border and people trying to see their relatives in Mexico... i wonder if it has something to do with my nationality, of course, I'm a mexican (one that lives in Mexico... not a "mexican/american").===

'''Content'''The Slow Slide Into TreasonThis case is about Neil Czerno site proceeds to a page with links to several stories of people of the world of Year Zero, and in a propagandistic way uses them to illustrate the site's main thesis: that there are dire consequences to those who seems attempt to be rebel against the authority in place in the one running up world of Year Zero, in this website http://www.OpenSourceResistancecase, the American government.net

===Neil Czerno===
One of the linked stories, entitled "The Slow Slide Into Treason", tells the story of one [[Neil Czerno]] who was ultimately executed. In the story, it is mentioned that he started a website named [[Open Source Resistance]], which led to the discovery of this currently active website at [http://www.OpenSourceResistance.net www.OpenSourceResistance.net].
== The Grapes of Wrath ==In Interestingly enough, in the background image you can read a little excerpt from chapter 19 of John Steinbeckstory it mentions that Czerno's "wife was diagnosed with cancer, forcing him to turn to the French government for help. The Grapes auto-reply to email sent to the address found on the Secure Broadcast Informatics website contains an anonymous e-mail to Francisco about his lack of Wrath"cooperation with the USBM and mentions his wife having breast cancer."Rattlesnakes! Don’t take chances with ’em, an’ if they argue, shoot first(See the [[Secure Broadcast Informatics]] page for the full text of this email. If a kid’ll kill ) Add to this the fact that Czerno is a copwebmaster, what’ll and the men do? Thing email from Francisco indicates he isan IT Specialist who handles internet bandwidth for clients, get tougher’n and that they both have a definite advocacy of free speech; while there is no hard evidence at this point they arethe same person, the parallels are interesting to note. Treat ‘em rough. Scare ‘em."http://www.thepriceoftreason.net/images/price_02.jpg
This novel shows that those Mexico references are not a coincidence. In this book you can see the Joad family fleeing from Oklahoma to California looking for a better place to live... sounds like immigration to me. You'll see the Joads suffering exhausting labor days, social rejection, infrahuman conditions and miserable wages. And at some point, the book tell us what happened to all that territory that once was part [[Category:World of Mexico... just the half of what used to be our country (México). Anyone remember the "frijoleros", the "beaners", the "brownies", the "wetbacks" or the "border jumpers"? Governator, do you like NIN?. ¡Ja! Ok, ok, maybe I'm ovearreacting, but what happens with ilegal immigration in Year Zero?]]
