Re: New America Foundation lost touch with reality
Ahh, nothing better than the unqualified opinion of a suburban upper middle class Republican, whose life is entirely made possible by government services and subsidies, yet continue to espouse rugged individualism. I suggest that unless you're willing to give up your government-regulated TV, government-maintained streets, and government-paid police, you try to educate yourself a little about the real world, rather than continuing to listen to Rush Limbaugh.
The point, since you seem to have missed it, is that this new spectrum would be able to cover vast areas for very little cost. A single tower could very easily cover a bubble 30 miles wide, more if you provide better antennas on the client end. If the spectrum is made unlicensed, then the hardware will be cheap and broadly available. With cheap hardware that covers a large area, providers would be able to offer service to more people at a lower cost, and make their money in bulk. |
