There is a difference between government and business, government should not be in it for anything but the advancement of the nation, a business is in it for the advancement of the business. So just because the government is behind getting it started, doesn't mean it should run it.

You really don't think very deep into things. You were screaming the Internet shouldn't be subject to laws. Now you're supporting the laws that keep it free for you to make a living on.
Think of the laws on monopoly and creating price cartels. They stop companies banding together to decide what you will pay, not just competition. What stops a company like Microsoft buying all the ISPSs? Yes laws.
Companies that control a market would never listen to a consumer. He buys or he goes without. At least every 4 years you get some say. Guaranteed by law.  |
The government is already has laws in place for business, giving them a foot hold in the internet would be double dipping for the internet business

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
