The Lower-48 is a Unique Digital Island on .EARTH

People can not apply governance approaches from the Lower-48 to other places
in
the world and likewise can not import governance baggage. The Lower-48 has
enough
baggage, and as noted below would benefit from less, not more.

People in Cyberspace should now be able to see what the growing governance
baggage
produces, more baggage and little in the way of results. The market wastes
time routing
around the baggage.

It is interesting that individuals in governance forums always claim they
are showcasing
the individual and their rights, and then the first thing they do is assume
that large entrenched
institutions should be their vehicles and then they wonder why that vehicle
does not take
them any place. Try walking as an individual. That is what happens in the
Lower-48, the
only place on .EARTH where it is allowed to happen and where people flock to
walk
the walk as well as talk the talk. The rest of the world hides behind or
inside their ivory
towers. THE Big Lie Society is famous for claiming they speak as individuals
while being
paid to troll the forums and conferences by their institutions. That is one
of the many lies
they tell.

Communications innovation needs to be set free now
By Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.)

 Let consumers pick winners and losers.
 Eliminate the patchwork quilt of regulations.
 Focus on services, not technologies.
 Ensure fair government competition with private industry: In today's
rapidly changing, highly competitive marketplace, the last thing innovators
and entrepreneurs need is for government bureaucracies to compete unfairly
with them in the telephone, video or broadband business.
