WSJ Says Gov't Money Injection Won't Help Broadband
olddotter writes "According to the WSJ, The US government is about to spend $10 Billion to make little difference in US broadband services: 'More fundamentally, nothing in the legislation would address the key reason that the US lags so far behind other countries. This is that there is an effective broadband duopoly in the US, with most communities able to choose only between one cable company and one telecom carrier. It's this lack of competition, blessed by national, state and local politicians, that keeps prices up and services down.' Get ready for USDA certified Grade A broadband."
The WSJ is a newspaper written by a bunch of war-mongering, anti-civil-liberties wankers.
There, fixed that for you.
Sometimes I wish you free market nuts would get exactly what you are wishing for, though only after I have sufficient supplies and ammunition to ride out the ensuing dark age.
Yes. Those 3 people are the only ones to blame.
"But this one goes to 11!"
Oddly enough, most so-called "conservatives" today are actually ignorant jackasses from East Bumfuck or Hicksville.
There, fixed that for ya!
It really is too bad that real conservatives let them get away with calling themselves conservatives.
