Re: heres an innovation Folks always have options. Generally, where folks say they don't what they really mean is that they don't want to pay the price for what they want. In most places, you can get two, three or more suppliers to provide you fractional T1 service, with unrestricted Internet access, to your property, IF you're willing and able to pay the price. The fact that the vast majority of consumers are maniacally focused on keeping their costs low prompts businesses to offer consumers the worst of the available service offerings.
The real answer is to throw the bums out of your state legislators, if they're unwilling to allow ANY adequately capitalized business in to provide you broadband services, and throw the bums out of your local governments if they put any barriers in the way of such businesses building their facilities within the town. (The extortion some towns get away with, in establishing cable television/telephone/Internet franchises is one of the MAIN reasons why YOU don't have as many choices as you'd like.) These people are supposed to be working for you, so THEY are the ones to blame. |
