here's the rub

"It's not about competition," says Geneva's assistant city administrator, Mary McKittrick to the local papers. "It's about companies bullying their way into the marketplace."

At what point was the free market idea destroyed and replaced with a government locked-down market?

What's certain about Darwinism is that it would take less time for (1) a single-celled organism to evolve into a human being through mutation and natural selection than for (2) Darwinists to admit they have no proof of (1) - Ann Coulter

And it is about the local pols worried about getting their piece of the action thru extortion. Do all their special little deals or you don't get a franchise.

Ha! Ohh...that's a good one. I'll go talk to my Grandfather, he's old enough to remember that day. Although he would have been pretty young, considering the rise of socialism and a large centralized government began sometime around the Great Depression.

Are you kidding me?

What the hell is the point of the local government?

To look out to make sure its collectively owned rights of way are protected, and to make sure all it its citizens are treated fairly?

Or is it to roll over and let any corporation do what it wants - despite what the current state laws require?
