... and despite the anti-economic nature of such federal regulation.

Listen to the Audio file for 2-25 to hear more about this bureaucratic mess, and take mental notes on Gardner Goldsmith's statements regarding the Constitutional prohibition against Congress ceding powers to other bodies. Also note, as Gard observes, that the "power" to regulate internet content, pricing, or ANYTHING, is not within the federal government's constitutional purview.

Here is the latest news on the story:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080225/wr_nm/internet_fcc_dc

John "Straight-Talk" McCain claims he never met with a man named Paxson to discuss FCC regulations over ownership of radio and television stations. Paxson says they DID meet.

Here is the story, and while you read it, remember that the existence of the FCC is PATENTLY unconstitutional. So, perhaps we should question THAT, while we wonder about Johnny's veracity. If the FCC didn't exist, then this entire question would never have arisen. Stop the government from regulating, and you stop influence peddling! WOW! AMAZING!

Of course, to have "standing", one must show that harm has been done to him, but in order to show this, the ACLU must show that its members, or those joining the suit, have been wiretapped without warrants. The only trouble IS, that the federal government holds all those records, and WILL NOT release them. Can you say, "catch 22"?

Check it out, Strongbad!

As listeners to Gard's show know, statist, parasitic legislators have proposed taxing cigars at 60% on the wholesale level. This may be amended to 19%. The level is irrelevant. The principle is all. Stop this tax. Contact your state legislators and the committee in which this bill is being heard.

Gardner Goldsmith had hoped to hit this story on Friday, 2-15, but there were just too many other stories to cover (such as FISA and the Illinois shootings). Take a good read, and tell others how the feeback loop of political economics works.

The unconstitutional regulation of the US air routes has reached its logical conclusion: fascistic impositions to force fliers to hand over personal data if they want to fly.

Not as if free market economists missed that. Just read Gardner Goldsmith's book, "Live Free or Die" and you'll see they've been talking and writing about it for a loooooong, looooong time. But that's okay, President Elect McCain would like the federal gubment to divert more of our productive economy into this boondoggle.
