Folks,
I fully understand the emotional need to respond to one who throws around terms like "Communist", "Tyrannical", etc. even if ostensibly framed as a rhetorical question. Certain terms and phrases are by nature pejorative and I;m sure the OP knew this when he entered his post.
My feeling was the OP is either an ignorant, unappreciative, self-centered, and emotionally immature person that expects all projects and activities to meet his desires, wants and criteria, _or_ he is trolling.
In either case, any response you provide will be obviously wasted as the OP's POV will likely not be affected. Therefore, you waste your time responding.
Trolls, if not fed, eventually die or wander off into the distance.
Please don't feed the trolls.

Bill, unfortunately for you many of us are in the free world. BTW where was "Tyrannical", used? Have you been watching too much of the Presidential race?

You tripped the irony detector.
