Mark, Do you pay ANY taxes??? If so, continue to the next questions. Otherwise, you have no reason to voice your opinion.
Do you support the wars we are involved in currently? All of them, or just one or two of them? Do you support your lawmakers making more money than most of the country? Do you support the fact that your lawmakers should be able to decide their own pay raise every year? Do you support your lawmakers running this country into debt the way it has? If you answered 'NO' to any of the above, do you continue to pay your taxes as I asked with the first question? If you do continue to pay your taxes, even though you do not support what your government is doing with your money, why do you continue to pay them? I believe the same thought process applies to the FCC and what they are currently doing. If you 'support' your government by paying your taxes, why don't you support the FCC's efforts even thought you don't agree with them? Many times it isn't 'what you say', rather 'how you say it.' Keep shouting from the mountain top, but quietly comply. I'd hate for you to be MIA in the future. Life is not always fair, and right doesn't always win. - Cliff -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Koskenmaki Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 11:59 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] FCC Admits Mistakes In Measuring Broadband Competition Heh... Is this an argument that taxes are a violation of the 5th Amendment? Especially the part that says "...nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. "? That's where I derive my idea that we do not "owe" them any services or spending money to provide services or labor without compensation. Heck, CALEA provided funds to the telcos to compensate them... Why the heck are we "special" and not protected? From the arguments here, we have an unfillable debt owed merely for use of unlicensed spectrum... I disagree there's any debt or obligation whatsoever. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Rogato" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "WISPA General List" <wireless@wispa.org> Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 9:47 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] FCC Admits Mistakes In Measuring Broadband Competition > > > > >> "you don't give them stuff for free" > >> > >> Yes we do. > > > > Care to quantify this statement? > > Sure, the government has never paid me to give them taxes. > > George Rogato > > Welcome to WISPA > > www.wispa.org > > http://signup.wispa.org/ > -- > WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org > > Subscribe/Unsubscribe: > http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless > > Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
