Although people find such behavior as charging Google and Microsoft higher rates for the same service to be unpleasant, they must be allowed to proceed unimpeded. Prices are a natural way of allocating resources between all players in the free market and should not be restricted by government.

 

I would like to point out:

Costs, rather than prices, are a natural way of allocating resources between all player in the equitable market and will not be restrictedly by any other means besides costs; be those costs natural or man made.

Man made costs are costs imposed by man, unnaturally, or, without just cause. One might raise the price above costs simply because one can. If so, then, another might not, and then; which one provides more for less?

Saving the Internet Is Saving Freedom


by Doris Colmes


 


The United States Congress is currently drafting a bill known as “The Communications Opportunity, Promotion and Efficiency Act of 2006,” known as “COPE.” This means privatizing the Internet, by allowing such private corporations as AT&T, BellSouth, Verizon and others to actually own it, and, in the process operate the internet and other digital communications services as private networks. The bill very, very clearly states that “certain classes of Internet providers may – not unreasonably – impair, interfere, restrict or limit applications or services such as Web sites or voice-over IP phone connections.”


 

Perhaps few will know why the above article is true. It may be a good idea to listen to those who do know while they can still be heard.


"Any man who has once acclaimed violence as his METHOD must inexorably choose falsehood as his PRINCIPLE." Alexandr I. Solzhenitsyn

lFirstly, the Pentagon says it will wage war against the internet in order to dominate the realm of communications, prevent digital attacks on the US and its allies, and to have the upper hand when launching cyber-attacks against enemies.

Senator Stevens: Not as Dumb as He Sounds

by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

I don't know the details of what Stevens favors, but I'm sure of two things: his solution is imperfect and his proposal to keep the government out of pricing decisions doesn't go nearly far enough. Nonetheless, he is right to be suspicious of people who want something for nothing.
