  1. Just WAIT until you see all the ILLEGAL STUFF Hillary REALLY did.

    About as likely as finding Jimmy Hoffa. These people are untouchable. They have insurance. For one to go after the other is the very definition of Mutually Assured Destruction.

  2. :-) You're objection to the Electoral College is duly noted.

    Overruled... Next...

  3. the problem is that the only opposition offered for voting was Hillary Clinton.

    Oh! I didn't know that we're supposed to wait for the Party to offer up the candidates from their Rolodex. From what I learned in high school, we can can petition for and nominate the candidate we want, not necessarily what the Party "offers". I believe those are the rules, should we ever decide to enforce them.

    By the way, there were other candidates on the ballot. You shouldn't be so scared to take a chance.

  4. All this nail biting for the benefit of the advertisers and tabloids...

    You're just impatient.

    And what reason is there to go to Mars? Wouldn't you rather go to Rio?

    Of course all things are possible! It is patently absurd to believe otherwise. We make all things possible, or more correctly, we uncover the possibilities we didn't know.

    Also municipalities should not ever be prohibited from providing access themselves.

    This is the only real issue here. Everybody would have broadband if they were allowed to build it, and with minimal, if any subsidies.

    The closed market is the cause of many of our problems. It's very "communist" to let big corporations make the rules for government to enforce. It just looks different because the Politburo wears Armani, instead of that drab green/gray.

    The real problem is that the locals are excluded from setting up their own services by the state that represents the big telcos.

    In capitalism the market is open to everybody, and it does find a way. The protection of monopolies by the state is more like communism. You can't even get good vodka from them.

    You're basically saying that while you have your cake, you want the rest of us (taxpayers) to give you the icing.

    :-) Well, you are obviously trolling the guy. He's saying no such thing.

    He said precisely what the problem is:

    My community is barred by state law from setting up it's own distribution network.

    let them or their local community pay for their infrastructure.

    Well, that's the rub, isn't it? The state, in order to serve big business, prohibits them from setting up their own service. You understand the real issue, right?

    The process for getting on the ballot is quite clear. The only people doing the limiting are the voters. They only take what's given, and seek out nothing. They put on their own blinders.

    This is bullshit censorship. And and all troubles with the internet begin and end with the ISP. They are the only ones that can control access. There is where you will find your real antitrust.
