Time to fulfill your moral obligation to pay for my internet access

[Imran Siddiqui]

He already has. Government subsidies have paved the way for high speed internet access. Not to mention the creation of the internet.

Beat me to it Imran, damn heh. I had a snappy response typed up, then saw yours.

Watched the video.

A college freshman, with a speach impedament no less, who starts off his argument by misquoting what Friedman said, squares off against a master orrator with decades of experience. Is it supposed to be shocking who won?

Of course Friedman won, that does not mean he is right, only he had a very poor opponent.

Would you post a video of Mike Tyson pushing a little old lady down the stairs next?

How about some of the worlds most one sided fist fights?

Wow, what a ridiculous mischaracterization of the video. That student was quite articulate, quite intelligent, and brought up some credible arguments against Friedman. Speech impediment my ass, haha. You wouldn't have done any better.

But if it makes you feel better to think that Friedman couldn't have possibly won an argument with an intelligent, articulate person, then go ahead. What an unfair debate, boo hoo hoo, Friedman that big ol' meanie.
