Remember that you heard it here first. This ain't about kiddie ****
and it ain't about $$$ for bandwidth. It's all about communications
clout. The unwashed cannot be allowed to have unfettered access
to the airwaves with what amounts to totally uncensored conference
groups. Think about it. We can trade any kind of information we
choose to. We can reference any source. We can publish any damn
thing we want and we don't have to prove any of it. Each individual
has the op****tunity to jump on any idea presented and pursue it
to his/her own satisfaction. Horrors, some of us might even go so
far as to not vote for any of the jokers being fed to us for the
upcoming
election in November. There's lots of other folks on the ballot.
Some
of them even got past the 6th grade on the first try. Who knows?
There
might even be one or two honest ones.
