33. Sigh
> Safer and better because the Government controls all access

Yes, and Al Gore pushed it for years because of that. Are you claiming he is wrong? You'll have a hard time convincing anyone of that.

> This is why we don't have national health care.

But we should. When children are dying by the thousands because of the medical cartel, the government should do something to break them up.

> Internet 2 will fail if it is government controlled, because no one will use it.

I wouldn't call it a failure now. I have several friends that almsot exclusively work on the I2 and only use the original Internet for a few things like Google. When you can download 1000x faster (at their particular workplace) on the I2 than the I1 and the colleges you work with and other businesses you work with are all connected to the I2, that's what you'll want to use.
