I make websites for a living. While I do not own a .org TLD, I have worked for many non-profits that do. They are always strapped for cash, and working for them often requires lower fees on my part. But I do it anyway, because the work they are doing is important. 

I respect and believe in free market economics, but as we know from our history, allowing a monopoly to set its own prices only benefits a few individuals, and never the end user.

Considering non-profits protect our rights, environment, and address social ills, it is in everyone's best interest to make it as easy as possible for them to operate. The federal government does it by not taxing them, individuals do it by providing financial contributions, and I do it by offering reduces fees. 

I urge you to protect those that protect us. Keep the fees for .org domains as low as possible. Thank you for considering the impact of this decision.
