The UN thinks the Internet should be for everyone. It thinks no country should dominate it. Well like the bumbersticker says, "GAS, GRASS, OR ASS-- NOBODY RIDES FOR FREE." The US government created the Internet (no, not Al Gore, DARPA), we have invested in the development and the upkeep of the backbone, and have created all the necessary programs, protocols and systems to make it was it is today. So the UN's concept that we should globalize (rather than nationalize) the system under their asinine and incompetent control is nothing short of laughable.
Now for my solution for solving the US debt. Create a company for the backbone, ICANN, etc like Fannie Mae (only not corrupt) and have an IPO and everyone and every nation who wants control can buy some shares. It'll put Google to shame.
I know that's the hangover talking, but so what. Its my brilliant, stupid, idea of the day.
