Carlos Blanco -- Re: <<You seem to think that you are wiser than the average person.>>

I am wise enough to know that everything works better with rules -- football, conduct in a civilized society, subatomic particle interactions, war, and, sorry to disappoint you, even business. Microsoft has violated the rules and will have to answer for it.

<<Presumably you're not a "sheep" and know what's really better for us all...>>

I am certain that we're all better off not having Bill telling us what's best for us.

<<...consumers and producers should be left unregulated...>>

Sorry, you're in the wrong country! Try Somalia. I believe they're still in a state of anarchy.

Regards,

Are you also anxious to introduce regulation on the fast-food industry because most people are "sheep-ish" enough to eat burgers instead of filet mignon, or onto the record industry because "sheep-ish" consumers like to listen to Madonna instead of Mozart?

Don't laugh too hard. The latest flatulence out of Washington is that it took government action and regulation to get people to live healthier by stopping their smoking and now it's time to do the same about that fat-filled fast food.
