I dont think you can get that to happen. What this should teach us is we need a organization. We have no real solidarity and that makes us very very weak. As a group we control enough money that we can be pretty powerful but as little units we are nothing. Now a days we are a society of sheep, you go to a movie pay $7-9 dollars and they show you car commercials. Now if the first time they tired that if the whole theatre walked out you would see no commercials. We accept the way things are too easily. Why do the moral majority get their agenda pushed thru because they are one unit instead of individuals so they have power. If we had an org 20,000 sites strong and we told the big three who ever charges us is out of business. and they know we can make that happen,they would back down or negotiate with us. Then we would have the power. One or two pissed nerds they laugh at. All these big webmasters that say stop crying and pay it , its not the $750 thats the problem its having Visa decide whats sites get to be on the web and who doent get to be. If you are legal and following the law and run your biz honestly, what gives them the right to do this. We do because we are small individuals units.
