I might add that if I so wish to visit your country I now have to
apply for a visa for which I have to pay a not untidy sum and for
which I would have to stand in line for a considerable period of time
outside your country's consulate.Also upon arrival at one of your
airports, I would be taken to a seperate room and interrogated like a
common criminal by a most unpleasant individual before, if I am lucky,
being allowed in to your country.
If I should be so dumb as to take a plane with a different
destination but with a stopover in one of your airports I would be
subjected to the same interrogation All this because I just happen to
be British.
This is all taking place in the land of the "free". All I can say is I
hope Kerry wins and I hope all this paranoia is laid to rest.

Excuse me, British tourists or business travellers don't need visas.
See the reciprocity table.
http://travel.state.gov/vwp.html#2
And here is the fee schedule.
Only two minor types of visas require fees
L-2 and E-2. E-2 is a Treaty Investor, L-2 is for a spouse or child
of an Intracompany Transferee.
