It's a tough call for me.  What is private property?  The networks? 
What about the consumers' time being private property?  Poor service is 
a waste of time, or worse, exploitative, an unfair trade if you will, 
even if it's "free".

I can empathize with negativity toward government intervention, but it's 
not always bad.  The extreme is having no government whatsoever.  That 
also goes to the extreme of having no private property.  I guess it's 
ultimately about finding the right balance.

Aragon
