 | Ideas All This fuss over the Mayor of San Francisco being open to ideas? The Mayor stated goals and is open to ideas about how they can be implemented.For this you have all of the anti muni nuts and doom sayer telco shills freaking out.Why not let a plan be developed before knee jerk reactions start?It is completely asinine to try to shoot holes in a plan which does not even exist yet. You can not make any logical arguments either way at this point. Some people don't really care about such things as reason or common sense,only maintaining the telco party line regardless of reality. |

| Do you have a better way to describe people who argue against a plan before there even is one? |

If the government wants build the infrastructure and let people like earthlink and other small ISP's compete on it, you've got my support; but you won't see that cause it would require government to give up some control, the ability to use it as a political bargaining chip (ala: free service to the "poor"), and a potential revenue stream.

 | Like I said knee jerk reactions.Do you fear ideas? Many an innovation has started with an idea. Out of curiosity, which private company is planning WiFi in San Francisco that they would be competing with? The plan may be absolute crap, most are.But it is still idiotic to judge any plan either pro or con if it does not exist yet.This is not intended as a personal attack.To me both corporations and government are both necessary evils.All I am suggesting is keeping an open mind and not condemning a plan before it is formed.Yes the odds are against it but they might come up with something good. |
