Congress To Investigate FCC

Posted by kdawson on from the so-there dept.

SirLurksAlot writes to let us know that Congress is planning to question the FCC on the way the commission is run. From the article: "The FCC — and Chairman Kevin Martin in particular — are in hot water with Congress... While Martin was at CES, telling all who would listen that the FCC will investigate Comcast's traffic-shaping practices, the House Energy and Commerce Committee announced a formal investigation of the FCC. The news couldn't be more welcome to the industries that the FCC regulates.'"

    Yeah. This country needs more socialism. Well, what it really needs to cut the military budget in half, and spend that money on things that actually help US citizens.

    We cut the budget in half, and cut the military in half. Keep it all Made in America.

    I wasn't aware the the USA's economy depended on constant acquisition of new lands and resources as Rome's did.

    If we stop being such hypocritical aggressive douchebags, we won't need this huge stick. Having the huge army around just means people are going to want to use it even if it is not needed. See: Iraq.

    I'm going to boldly state that alcohol shouldn't be advertised either.
    It's a drug too, right ?
