23RZ19 - The Talossan Anti-Microsoft Monopoly Act

Clarked in the Third Clark (November 1997) of the 23rd Ziu

WHEREAS , the Kingdom of Talossa has always stood for freedom, diversity, and the individual's right to express his opinions without legal retaliation; and

WHEREAS , these fundamental freedoms have been extended onto the Internet since Talossa's 1995 decision to join the Internet; and

WHEREAS , the monopoly practices of Microsoft endanger the freedom of all Internet users, and thus endanger the freedom of Talossans; and

WHEREAS , there is credible evidence to suggest that Bill Gates is the Antichrist; and

WHEREAS , U.S. Attorney General Janet "Waco" Reno has courageously imposed a legal crackdown on Microsoft's monopolistic practices:

THEREFORE, the Ziu hereby expresses its concurrence with the United States Government's attempt to weaken Microsoft's computer monopoly, and supports the efforts of the Clinton Administration to open the Internet and the computer industry to free and fair competition.
