I am still unclear why tax dollars are spent to basically subsidize a private 
sector endeavor.  I do understand that in some cases it may be the law that 
agencies will need to compile and/or redact information requested.  But I 
would still question if that is a wise public policy.

For example if I wanted to know what percentage of graduates of the 
Unviersity of Minnesota have a surname that ends in a vowel for the time 
period 1910-2010 could I expect that someone would compile this information 
for me.  If not then does that mean you differentiate requests either by the 
amount of labor involved or by the assumed serious purpose of the requestor.
