But it’s not dues. And he doesn’t sell stock shares. He can turn it off any time he gets tired of it.

It belongs to him.

He sets the rules and the terms of use.

Even if we contribute to keeping it up, it doesn’t give us any inherent right to tell him how to run it.

That would be like a friend giving you 50 dollars, and telling you, “Now because I gave you that money, I don’t want to see that religious picture on your mantle the next time I come over to visit.”

You might or might not comply, but you’re certainly not under any obligation to do it.

Good post and true.....but without member participation, Jim Rob (as far as I know) could not afford to maintain the server and maintenance fees for such a colossal site.... I think more of FR as a member supported conservative website with a ceo that sets the rules and maintains the "company".....not a house. I've never heard of a house paid for by someone else that you just happen to live in.....unless it's in some commie state....
