Why do you need government to track brodband penetration.
Is it to justify anther taxpayer funded entitlement to solve a trumped up inequality? |

| reply to Richard B No, it's to make sure that the companies that promise things and get extra money from us follow through on their promises. We do NOT live in free market conditions regarding broadband, so there is NOT going to be a free market solution. It was similiar with phone and electricity. I don't like big government either, but they put their fingers in this crap a century ago. They're in it, and they need to do their jobs as well. |
