Its not like we dont have choices in this country and that is what makes it so great , we can choose to be ,do and LISTEN to what we want as long as it doesnt break any laws.

Churches aren't public places. Airwaves are Gov't owned, and people buy a license to use that frequency. They don't own that frequency. So, this is an effort to keep people with only one point of view from buying up all the licenses for the frequencies. From what you're saying, if you're in a Conservative State (where Progressive radio is not commercially viable,) then only Conservative view points should be heard there. No alternative opinions heard there, because not enough people there are progressive.

That is stupidity. First of all the amount of people who get the majority of information from the radio is almost non-existant. Secondly who in the govt gets to choose what gets to be broadcast? The minister of information? Only a damn fool or a communist thinks that govt control of the content of ANY broadcasts is a good thing. Even the goddamn socialists that seem to be taking over the country would oppose that unless they were just blatantly partisan.
