If the FCC turned it down, then it was a good deal for us!

Why do I say this?

Because the FCC hasn't made a SINGLE pro consumer decision in over a decade! (so, BY DEFINITION, this one is anti-consumer)

Because the FCC routinely BENDS OVER to big business and big telco!

Because the FCC is a part of the EXECUTIVE BRANCH and as such is one of the MOST political (read: BRIBERS) of all the government agencies.

Because the FCC is one of the MOST LOBBIED of ALL govt. agencies!

and Finally...

Because you just WATCH! That spectrum will be sold to BIG TELCO, who will use it to RAPE the consumer.

There's a reason that the USA is 19th in broadband deployment in the world.

There's a reason why we pay among the highest of any country for broadband and wireless telephone services-and our broadband is among the slowest.

There's a reason why the USA is about to be sued in the World Court for trashing the AM radio band.

There's a reason why we have no true HD radio here-while every other country has had it for YEARS!

The reason? Three letters:

FCC

Cleveland, OH		 We'll be lucky if the Telco's actually use the spectrum once they get it. Look how much ClearWire picked up from AT&T/BellSouth in that deal. All of it was unused. They just write a check and sit on it so nobody else can compete with them.
