wow, a government run program out of money? What a surprise (:-O <= this is my shocked face). The problem is that they aren't running it like a corporation, because they feel they have a monopoly. As an example, a few summers ago, the USPS internet gateway went down. It took them over a month to get it back up and running properly. For over a month, anyone running a website could not get correct rates (If it could connect to the servers at all). If this was a private company, they would have lost a ton of customers.
