Notice he said H1B visa and not visa? The H1B system is not a free market, it is tailored to allow businesses to import labor at below market prices, leveraging the value U.S. citizenship/residency is seen as providing e.g. social entitlement programs, public infrastructure, and public education. The workers brought over do not have a visa themselves and will be deported if they are fired/quit their job unless they find another business with an open H1B visa and secure employment there within a short period of time. That being said, if the H1B system were to be scrapped entirely as an flagrant form of corporate welfare, and replaced with higher quotas for full visas, you're original point about fair business/market practices vs protectionism would be valid.
You might want to let the US Supreme Court know that, they evidently have a different opinion according to New York Times Co. v. United States, 403 U.S. 713.
1) http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ is available for several android phones, you need root and a kernel driver. Google has nothing to do with that, their developer phones and the nexus 1 are sold unlocked with root(at least I would assume you have root on the N1), the handset manufacturers and carriers lock down their devices.
2)see above, also supports bluetooth. Cyanogenmod also has built in usb tether support.
3)Multitasking is also supported on android devices, in fact it uses the same scheme where apps continue running in the background until memory is needed that winmo uses. You can also mount the memory card from an android phone over usb. The phones actual memory can be accessed through adb.
I haven't used a winmo phone since I traded in my c600 but seems like Microsoft is pretty hands-off about dictating the degree of openness, carriers choose the capabilities of their devices.

I think the question is more "How do we pull people over for no reason to fish, if there is no way we can lie about minor traffic infractions?"
CM7 dropped support for the vibrant over an issue with 911 calling that would require support from Samsung to resolve.
More along the lines of closed and clunky, but with a snappy black turtleneck, will sell better than clunky but open.
Wireless service especially for the police?
In Capitalist America, Steve locks you down!
The phones obviously should be a free market. Radio should be too and it isn't.
Its not a free market. Both the spectrum and the actual content are heavily regulated.

I respectfully disagree, and so did the US Supreme court in New York Times Co. v. United States, 403 U.S. 713.
A small amount of research would reveal that:
