Agreeable, well said, and deliciously bipartisan. Censorship is not an answer to anything, and hopefully never will be. The free flow of ideas is what has shaped this country for years and years. The next four or eight will be interesting, but we haven't had a large shake up in the gov't for a while now and I'm pretty eager to see what's next.

Edit: How do you change your profile picture?

I didn't say the government should censor them. I said they should stay out of politics. Companies have one interest and one interest only. To make money.

One of the points I made in my post was that politics affects profit and business as well (albeit it wasn't very outwardly stated, sorry about that) and if a company's one interest is to make money, as an individual's one interest may be, for example, to eat as many tacos as possible over their lifetime, the interest is the same difference. They should both be given the same liberty to try their hardest to influence their government to sway toward their own goals (or those of whom they care about).

The difference is the results of their efforts, while most are focusing on differing at the opportunity level.
