Okay, so maybe the Republican Credo, "I've got mine, so fuck you" hasnt really affected you much yet. That's probably not true, but close enough.

It's called "tiered access", and it basically means, those as pay more, get the better down-loading speed. Never mind that we are the ones doing the down-loading, and what we chose to down-load should be what goes fastest. No, Big Money doesnt see it that way, because that's not what keeps Big Money in Big Money.
Look up the word "oligarchy", if you dont already know it. And understand that Dubya isnt all that concerned about immigrants, illegal or not, because he really wants the U.S. to operate just like Latin America: a wealthy few in control, with all else peasants.
