Carlos,

Thanks for posting a very informative article. There were a couple of points made that I found especially interesting.

Yet two Republican presidents completely changed the environment by repeatedly bashing and then over-regulating business, allegedly in defense of consumers.

I detect Deja Vu all over again. Anyone who thinks the Republican Party is the champion of free enterprise should look no farther than Hatch, Dole, Bork, et all. True leftists must be rolling on the floor laughing at the sordid spectacle.

Yet governments have a way of ignoring history. So they may be doomed to repeat it.

Hiding under the guise of "protecting consumers" and "promoting competition", the politicians, DOJ, state AG's, and their allies attempt to deflect attention from their true motive which is power lust, pure and simple. They themselves cannot create, they can only destroy.

Microsoft must fight this case publically and on principle. They must fight to expose and overturn the irrational "laws" that they are accused of breaking.

Voters have a way of ignoring history. I hope enough of them wake up in time to throw these a**hole "friends of consumers" out of office before they manage to tank the economy and stifle growth and risk taking.

This is much bigger than just Microsoft. This is our future and our freedom.

Regards, JB
