In Argentina, Law Against Plagiarism Plagiarized 165
An anonymous reader writes "An Argentinian politician who introduced a law to send plagiarists to jail for three to eight years appears to have plagiarized the explanation of his bill directly from Wikipedia. The bulk of his explanation is three paragraphs that are taken, verbatim, from Wikipedia, without acknowledgment."

"Do as I say don't do as I do, some politicians outside of Argentina also have that attitude ;-)"
In my experience, that's what all politicians do. As do the cops. They set bad examples for the rest of us.
