umm… the internet should be operated in the public interest, with the goal of maximizing utility to the public, rather than with the goal of maximizing profits.  For mine and many other’s livelihood, the internet is as much an important public resource as the roads or hospitals are.  It is, in large part, necessary in order for me to make my money.

Besides, most goods will most likely soon not be sent via land, sea, or air; they will be transmitted through the internet and fabricated either at a local fabrication centre, or even at home.  Even now, books are distributed electronically, movies, music… next up, dishware, constructable furniture, houses… you name it, it likely already exists in a distributable electronic format, just waiting to be “printed” out.  Look it up.

here’s a link to some neat looking stuff.
