<<What this "core?"

VALUES.

BELIEFS.

PRINCIPALS (Sic)

...Microsoft is a monopoly. Our Federal Government is a monopoly. What could extend the power of both? If they agreed to work together in some way, shape or form.

Perhaps this is how this dynamic duo plans to bridge/close the Digital Divide>>

For once, Fred, I'm with you although MSFT doesn't have legal power to coerce. MSFT is gonna lose in this duopoly!

Nationalization may be the way gov't. seek to resolve the "threat" of MSFT's monopoly. What I see though is that the internet represents a threat to the reeducation of America now underway via the government schools, print and broadcast media.

If the internet is "regulated", you've got a Pravda-like situation - all media the propaganda organs for the Govt.

Ciao, Daniel
