Msg to Bush
Dear Pres

I humbly suggest that if you wish to reduce the deficit that you do so by eliminating the FCC. These people are the greatest waste of taxpayers dollars to ever hit the U.S.. With 4.7 Billion $ and a good payment plan you could come close to giving 80% of us free broadband. Competition in telecom is almost nonexistant and the waste of our tax $ is going to support and protect the monopolies of the babybells amoung others. The FCC is ruining the greatest opportunity this country ever had to increase its dwindling competitive advantages. our communications policy is being grossly mismanaged and my guess is that the moneys too good.
