That is the absolute last thing the private services want. They get their
raw material for free now. Why would they want to pay for launching
hundreds of weather balloons a day, staffing weather observation stations
arlond the country and maintaining satellites and weather bouys. They would
much rather us tax payers pay for that.


Oh ye of little imagination! So stop giving it away for free. Why is it so
hard for the free lunch bunch to comprehend that concept?
Dave since you are not a member of the free lunch bunch you must have
sent you child to a private school, had your own police and fire
department, built roads (or paid tolls) and never used any government
services. Or you are one hell of a hypocrite.
