Companies trying to make a dollar are not the problem. Most of the complaints I hear are about unaccountable government bureaucracies and the monopolies they award.  The for-profit registrars do an amazing job.  Some sell registrations on margins so low we wonder how they do it.  Then they give away email forwarding, website forwarding, DNS service, even free websites.  Some registrars make less than $3 per registration and still offer free 24/7 phone and email support!  (Some use labor from India so they're helping poorer countries as well.) They're creating jobs.  They're paying taxes instead of spending your tax money. All this goodness comes from registrars trying to make a dollar.

This success story can be told because we moved some control from government (and/or its monopoly) to the free market. Moving control from one government to another goverment won't do it.
