the cigarette tax is hypocritical but so would not breaking up Microsoft. Microsoft is fast becoming the most hated company in America, maybe the Tobacco example isnt so bad.

Bill and Ballmer have only themselves to blame with their bullying tactics and attempts to subvert public opinion and DA's. They also underestimated how empty their cynical cries of innovation and freedom sound in light of their history and products.

Joey Two-Cents RE: <<"Move somwhere else". M31 is that really your response?>>

Yes, it is, when you spell America with a "k." You must have lived a very sheltered life to show that much disrespect for our country based on the arguments you listed in your post.

<<Soon you'll be calling me a communist. Are you one of those zealots that believe in free speech as long as it's what you agree with?>>

I believe in free speech to the extreme -- flag burning. But not because I think that some scum who's never lifted a finger to earn the freedom he takes for granted should have the right to burn the flag. Rather, it's necessary to keep the government in check.

<<I guess you support the DOJ breaking up MSFT...>>

You betcha!

<<...You probably see no hypocrisy when congress...>>

I see way too much hypocrisy in congress. May I suggest that you "dis" those individuals who deserve it and not the United States?
