You're missing my point. On the web anyone can make a website and get popular enough to compete with the big players. Can you make an OTA TV channel (whatever the hell that is) that will get more viewers than Fox News? I could give you

That's what they'll swear to you, but of course the government will use it for censorship just like the FCC nowadays censors the TV and Radio. Read up the history of the FCC. At the time it was also "necessary" to regula

I'm also a long time Inkscape user and it suits my need perfectly. However, I'd rather be able to edit the nodes of an image to clip it, as in Corel Draw, instead of having to commit to a shape, combine, and set the clip onto the

99% of the population does not check the numbers that governments and media put out. Also, governments and media are notorious for giving out numbers that are nearly impossible to find out anyway.

The government already funds mainstream media, it's called the FCC, which also means the state has a monopoly on the media it regulates.
