As previously mentioned, compare broadband to the phone system.
It becomes necessary to have 100 mb broadband to every home virtually free because of the communication improvements throughout the country.
Being able to instant message anyone in my extended family about any idea that I want to turn into a business is a tremendous way to spur innovation. err. Find funding.
Open up the lines of communcation and the benefits are exponential. That is why broadband to everyone is essential, because if only 2% of the people become 100x as productive or innovative the society/knowledge will expand in leaps and bounds.
well, modifying a car involves the safety of the people around you and should be illegal if this is illegal.
The problem always lies in enforcement. So many stupid laws aren't enforeced as it is. Why not just add another.
Minimizing the threat of politicians to yourself is an amazing coping mechanism.
I hope that you don't truly feel that that you can continue to go about your life without paying attention the people/events around you.
Whenever a new regime takes power they kill off the intellectuals. This has happened countless times throughout the history of mankind. So, scientists are always the first to be killed.
I hope that you're lucky enough to never have to worry about this. But do you really want to count on luck when you can use your voice and actions to control the world around you so that stuff like this doesn't happen? Seems kind of naive.
human have multiplied out of control. We now dominate nearly every ecosystem. The only two we have yet to conquor are the oceans and the void (space). Lucky for us the Universe is (in effect) infinite. But, we'll need nanomachines to get to where we want to go quicker. So, nano is good.
ps i donate all my unused cycles to folding (over genome project, i personally feel that we're going to screw something up with the whole genetic genome geewiz junk)
And here class, we have the makings of a luddite. Notice how the fear of the unknown leads to rash illogical actions? This effect, is known as the evolution effect. It regresses an otherwise intelligent person into the superstitious fearmongering ancestor of 10,000 years ago. Now imagine if this person had acess to religion to spread his war against science. Ok, my time is up go write a paper on the implications of this.
Not all of the states have deregulated their energy production.
The Californian experience with deregulation and deregulation experiences in general have proven that American Businessmen are just assholes who want to screw you for the very last penny.
The phone companies are another example of a botched deregulation. Ma Bell was good. Verizon is bad.
If you want to ensure National Security vote for state-run Energy Production and Phones. And always vote against deregulation...we can always underfund the agency if it ever becomes opressive.*
*See the Bush administration's tactics on Science, Education, and Environmental Protection.
Actually most elderly people try very hard to avoid other people's children and grandchildren.
The noise is terrible, the actions are illogical, they always *need* something.
Children are very disturbing to a peaceful life.

because you're the bottom of the rung. They are outsourcing to the best in Canada and getting the best educated there for 40%.
Do we really want to sponsor more competition to our jobs?
the only problem with your arguement....Microsoft.

Yeah....but all the chips were made at AMDs CHINA plant.

As voters, we only have ourselves to blame.
uh huh...nice try but I aint gonna fall for it. You just want to get rid of some of your competitors!
but what about national security?
It's funny that your source is an Australian site rather than NASAs own site. Always try to get sources as close to the event as possible.
dude! use a popup blocker (Mozilla) and ad blocker (Privoxy)!
They did reflectors in NH one summer and we just walked around and ripped them off the road for fun one night.
Solar Powered Rake!
Think Man! Think!
Yeah! Look at all of the Trees it kills each year!
