Re:a simple thought experiment (Score 1)

If the government found out that your living was a essential service which should be offered to the public for free. How do you think they would manage to do so without employees with the proper skills? There`s another thought experiment you should try out. To answer your simple thought experiment in short: In your worst case scenario you would work for government. Then again as pointed out many times over in this thread. There are many services which the government offers for free, still there are many enterprises making a fortune by competing with these services. Btw: You don`t happen to be a ghost-writer for broadband providers? I only ask since it seems like you care more for them then for yourself.
