Netcong, NJ | Do you want the government controlling your interweb? Read some of the posts about government supported or supplied broadband and you will not want it.
There was a time when affordable communication was available to all. Ma Bell is dead and yet the people bitch. |

| With all of the "privacy" advocates here as well, I'd think a state run broadband plan would be the last thing they would want. Think the government taps lines now...

kudos:2 | But the people here on BBR want privacy and 100/100 Mbps service for $19.95/mth  Besides, most people "advocating" something have no idea of what they are speaking out about. They read the headline, drink the Kool-Aid, and fall in line to demand that the govt regulate and/or compete against corporate America to save the poor and tax the hell out of the wealthy. |

You're kidding, right?
The price of phones services has fallen so much since Bell was shattered, and even more with the advent of digital communication. If Bell still ran things, your phone bill would be hundreds per month, long distance would still be insanely expensive, and you would still have a phone company owned rotary dial behemoth of a phone.
Stop thinking some more. |
