Mike Downey: The pro act in Congress is scaring the hell out of people who are simply trying to make a living, nearly 70 million people freelancer right now being affected by this thing. He says AFP's Akash Chogli has some very unflattering things to say about regulation and he is very concerned about the impact of inflation on all sorts of people.Downey: Our conversation is not really a political one and AFP does seem to come down on the conservative side of many issues. But what they're really trying to do is get the barriers out of the way for all kinds of people who want to earn an honest living as a freelancer.
