		<description>I agree with Dave, #94. The whole point of us doing this is to make money. Not lose it. If I make a $100 EPC on most stuff (thats earning 100 dollars for every 100 clickthrus) its generally a pretty good thing. Many things do go higher, but most are lower for me. So what of this &quot;genius&quot; program (or some lamer assigning bogus min. bids off the top of their heads)? How can it be justified to charge us say $350 per hundred clicks for something that is only worth $85.00 per hundred clicks? Do the Bozos know that if Im bidding $50 per 100 clicks on most things Im only making $15?!

Soe people need to get fired or do some extraction from where the sun does not shine. Simply try something amazing...ITS CALLED FREE MARKET ENTERPRISE!

The system will regulate itself. GOD FORBID ANY OF US ACTUALLY FIND SOMETHING WE CAN BID ON AND STILL MAKE MONEY!</description>

		<description>Seriously. Who is the crackhead who thought up this scheme? Do these idiots have the slightest notion of how it works on our end? Letting the market self regulate works fine. For your information nobody is going to walk off with a cheap Van Gogh, even if they started the bidding at 1 cent. Keyword bidding has nothing to do with Sotherby&#039;s or a Hog Auction anyway.

The reality is that most of us here in the trenches dont make jack already after paying for PPC. This is caused by newbs overbidding. These people are selling from the same source as us and are obviously in the business of going out of business. Yahoo will not have any long term success with them. Its just a matter of time before they get the picture that they are only paying money to make money for others.

The problem with newbs overbidding is bad enough. Now we have some certified idiots going in there and jacking up minimum bids to ridiculous levels.

Great long term move guys!...but I guess there are plenty of idiots waiting in line to overbid themselves out of business as well.

I noticed in my panel that all the seriously unpopular terms I had in their went up to ridiculous amounts. Where are the ones that should of dropped below 10 cents? Do any of you see any? This is a sham, seriously.</description>
