'I am worried that it could just be half the world that is flat and that it stays that way.'
-- Bill Gates
I just had an idea... Somebody needs to run for Congress on a 'free internet for everyone' platform... Everyone, not just Americans. We need to raise the political dialogue above debates over-who-did-what-to-whom and whether we should rename French Fries to Freedom Fries and really talk about the contribution that America has made to the welfare and prosperity of the entire world, and needs to continue to make. We have to get everyone on the internet, as quickly as possible, or the gulf between the information have and have-nots will widen to become an almost irreconcilable gap. It should be a mission of the United States government, in the interests of creating a more connected, prosperous, and harmonious world, to make this happen.
