Re: [Digital BW] Re: Congress is selling out the Internet - this could effect your use of YAHOO!G

Steve,
the discussion was regarding government interference as opposed to a free 
market. Fuel cost was an example of an uchecked free market. The problem 
with the free market concept is that it is not allowed to remain free. 
Producers artificially manipulate a free market, thus effectively ending 
free market.
The same problem is happening to free speech. Free speech is only tolerated 
as long as those listening agree. If not, a great uproar ensues!
By the way, three dollars a gallon is only cheap if it had reached that 
point by true free market forces. It has not.
Bob

The issue has been discussed broadly in US and international press for some
time now.  It is not an issue relevant for discussion here and has nothing
to do with free speech.  Paul is correct on this.

PS:  $3 a gallon is cheap!  Try a more fuel efficient car.
