To use your metaphor, one player is given 300 free shots while everyone else only has one. And if you don't sink enough baskets, you starve. Also don't call in sick for a game, nobody cares.

I don't understand why HN is so strongly anti- corporate and govt monopoly and yet so massively pro-personal monopoly.

There is usually a libertarian vein in anyone who thinks they possess a lever that can move the world. It's not necessarily a bad nor good thing.

Like all communities, we attract self-same thinkers.
