Mark, What I tried to say in my post is let's hear the information but present it in a less-extreme fashion without the obviously slanted language such as 'digging into your pocket' and 'shafting you as hard and deep as possible'. Otherwise your post should go to a list that's hosted on a site that is named governmentrant.org, or something like that. Your 2nd post here that I'm replying to now is more along the lines of an appropriate post for this list (sans the parting shot at the end).
