The internet is a example of "rational anarchy." It won't stay this way,
though. I predict within 2 years there will be a US federal gov't agency
to oversee the internet.

The US Federal govt. CAN'T control the internet.  While it may be 
powerful, the internet is worldwide.  Many of those sites are owned by 
private companies and foreign governments.  If the US attempts to control 
and oversee their protion of the internet it'll make a lot of
 otheres uneasy.  If they get uneasy and sever internet ties with the US 
than most every company who owns a politician will be jumping down 
congress' throat.  Since it hasn't been attempted yet, this is merely an 
hypothesis, not a fact.  But, I feel it's a likely one.
