"Jerry Fallwell and Ted Kennedy are bedfellows.
Both want to regulate your life, but with a few small
differences.
Ted Kennedy wants to regulate your business: how much profit you
can make, how you do business, etc.
Jerry Fallwell wants to regulate your personal life: what you
watch, what you read, etc.
What is the difference? Do either of them really want less
government interference?"
The internet is a very powerful tool. What is it? The largest informational database on the face of the earth. It's a library. Let's not burn its books because we don't like them.
For the record, this site does not support or condone the exploitation of anybody, on the internet or otherwise. However, we cannot expect lawmakers who have never installed their own software, designed their own web pages or even know what a modem is, to make laws about the internet. When conservatives cry foul, perhaps justifiably, when someone runs for office, usualy a democrat, who will make decisions about business without ever having run or wirked in one. Consider the similarities. To be fair, internet sensorship has become a political football supported by both parties.
There are many sites which ask you to write your congressman. We at this site are asking you to think. Consider the source of where the information is coming from. As an example, Oprah, on one of her shows, went on and on and on about how dangerous the internet is. In the same breath she asked, "What's a modem?"
