    Well, I don't really think it is a bad thing. I just do not think it is anything close to an example of "socialist policy", and quite obviously it is a move by the telecom industry to recoup the taxes it has (failed to) pay in Portugal, since the thing was largely funded by the government selling debts owed to them by the industry. You yourself have expressed previous concern over the "American style" abuse of the term, socialism, in previous posts, evidently you have decided to jump on the bandwagon now?

    BTW, I never claimed to be a socialist, but I sympathize with the general idea. Also, I believe it is with good reason they worry about "rich people" and their behaviour.
