Re: Verizon shouldn't get off for free wifi.... you are missing the entire point. Verizon is not like a normal private company because it uses subsidized money (public money) to build the infrastructer. Just because we gave verizon money to build something does not make it the owner of the lines. Operated by but not owned unless it bought the lines back from the people (government). The lines are not apart of Verizons Assets (unless purchased back) because they are for US. "Verizon was in the right position (part of the Bell family) to build the network for the American PUBLIC." |

| wifi4milez is a corporate shill.. he is very similar in his posts to tkjunkmail especially when it comes to defending verizon. at least tkjunkmail admits that he owns stock in telco's. any private citizen who defends verizon is an employee especially someone here because all their abuses of their customers are presented here. why else would this guy defend them like this? |

Defending Verizon?? HA! Apparently you are basing that on my responses to this one thread only. Not that I would have expected you to actually do some research and make an informed statement. I advocate ALL private companies making money because they are not charity organizations. If I am a corporate shill I guess that makes you a clueless shill.

North Andover, MA | Ok "karlmarx", Verizon has NO responsibility to these lines, and they're even trying to find someone to cover the servicing for them. You people and your "entitlement" are ridiculous. I live near, and drive through the areas all the time. There are barely exits on the highways, forget people. Half the land are just named "township 91". If I were a shareholder of Verizon I would extremely pissed off if they were spending money developing this network for, essentially, the trees. The people who moved to those areas moved there BECAUSE there aren't other people, it's the lifestyle they were looking for. They are prime candidates for dial-up or satellite service. There aren't even radio stations in some of these places.. jees.
Verizon is essentially selling the servicing rights to this area. They can do this because there is a tiny profit to be made by providing the service. There has to be a profit because that's what incentizes free peoples to provide services for others. Service without profit is serfdom at best, and slavery at worst. Verizon is NOT making a HUGE profit off this area of the country.
And wifi may be a corporate apologist, but he's certainly NOT a shill. Just like you're a Supra-Socialist, but probably not a communist. |
