Who Blames the Telco?

If your village hall decided to open a general store and offer cut rates on everything from food and clothing to computers and housewares, I have a sneaky suspicion that BELOVED WALMART and all other stores would pitch a bitch too. Lets keep our access to the internet OUT of the direct control of the government, please.

Oh, u mean like what they do with PXes on military bases here in the states? Oh yeah.. that's a real problem indeed. I absolutely hate bein able to buy the same stuff for much cheaper than I would if I ran down to WalMart

In the case of Municipally run internet access, it's not being shoved down your throat like it is with BS/Verizon/SBC. It's called Freedom of Choice. Oh and also, as a side note, all the cities that would be opening up this municipal broadband, they're all treated and run exactly like a corporation, minus the share-holders. They can be sued just like Verizon could be, they'd be subject to the same "regulations" that the RBOCs have to play with, and best of all... you're not FORCED to use them.

If you want to stay with Comcrap, then by all means, DO IT. Me.. I like the idea of being able to choose, and promote some actual competition, instead of this duopoly crap that's goin on between RBOCs and Cable providers in most areas.
