dear sanjeev,
thanks for your insta-response to the email, and for moving into deeper
issues such as 'economic-distortion' effects and the 'yoke of taxation'.
brings more light into what we just take for granted.

we do not have powers? well, let's see how this goes.
we, the powerless, can only push those in power to display their power
against those who weild their own kind of powers.
for instance [power of the State against the that of the powerful MNCs]
sure, we still carry the yoke, but i still hope to win the freedoms,
opportunities, and level-playing fields that would benefit me personally, as
stated in the earlier email to you, and which will benefit individuals,
developers, companies, businesses, education, states, governments, etc.
:-)
