said by NSdsl :I have been waiting for FIOS for months. Anytime you involve so many local governments you are asking for delays. Go to anytime town meeting and you will see terribly, inefficient government at its worst. We could also eliminate delays in lawmaking by just letting our president make laws without involving congress. Let's just take the democratic process out altogether. It just takes up way too much time. Just put one guy in charge and let him make the rules. Things would get done much quicker.
It's done like that in all of the great countries: Saudi Arabia, Cuba, North Korea. . .
Giving bigger government along with bigger corporations more power to do whatever they want to do on such a large scale is asking for trouble. Wait and see. Take away your local government's negotiating power and see your local taxes raise even more, as if they weren't high enough as it is, or see cutbacks in local programs that were funded by franchise fees.
But, if you want the extra few KBps up and down, I guess it would be worth it, huh? |
