[At-Large] [discuss] cgi.br release regarding Brazil Global MSM on Internet Governance

[Christian de Larrinaga]

Ever considered writing for the Economist?

>From my personal perspective. As an individual Internet user I can't
reclaim ICANN expenses so every £1000 spent actually costs c.£1400 in
pre tax revenue.  Those who turn up for business of course can reclaim
if they make a profit with corporate taxes at c.10% this means they save
around £100 in tax and keep the £1400 of pre tax personal income for
themselves as well.

This might give some clue as to why ICANN drove so fast to be a business
orientated organisation.
