>> Sorry for I do not have much time to lose with your assumptions turned into facts. In particular with someone maintaining that Democracy is responsible for the Corporations' behavior regarding their tax duties. This is insane and a dangerous thinking. I will always fight such non sense. And if the code of conduct of any list comes to the conclusion that this is unacceptable attitude I am happy to leave. Probably I might be joined in my departure by anyone using the terminology "dick" against any other participant.

In our European culture, freedom of expression has some limitation (holocaust, nazism...) and I am most happy with it. In the US, even in beautiful Minnesota, things seem to be rather different where anything can be said whatever it is. So even though this is just "agora talk", I feel that denouncing Democracy, moreover its representative model, on no evidence is part of the legitimizing process to outplay democracy. And if I do understand well, Democracy seems to be a danger to the open and unified Internet where the last thing people want is some public policy regulations.
