A free market is not a lawless market but instead free within regulations. However, the amount of regulation should not make it impossible for competitors to join the market either. With the amount of subsidies in the US for ISPs, I think the services they render might be event called a public service, more than a utility.

We don't disagree. I just thought it was obvious enough that an over regulated market isn't free that it need not be stated explicitly. Especially since this is the general belief.

Sorry for not clarifying. I do agree with your initial statement and wanted to add something to it, not criticize it.

Okay, I was not quite sure if you were criticizing, rebuting, or what. Thanks for clarifying.
