  That is almost exactly what you did say as anyone who can read will see,
and the idea that greed will be the preferred fountain of "public goods"
in the electronic media is something only a TV executive could possible
utter.  The television model of communications has had a murderous record
in promoting the "culture of aggrssion during of our times, which no sane
individual would desire to reproduce in cyberspace.  Your attempt to link 
a more progressive infrastructure design with hateful code words cannot 
change this situation.
