That's perfectly clear.

Let me be equally clear: why should I pay taxes to provide you data
for *free*, then turn around and have to pay *you* for your value-added

When you start paying for data - and I mean paying for the actual
data, and not the delivery thereof - then I might start thinking it's
all equal.

I can please only one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow
isn't looking good, either.
I am BOFH. Resistance is futile. Your network will be assimilated.
