Re: Satellite Broadband?

said by battleop See Profile :

If having access to different types of broadband, cheap and fast, without restrictions then maybe you need to consider moving. Living out in the country has it's trade offs.
The only problem with that oft repeated reasoning is if everyone did that, food production in this country would fall to a point that your bread, milk, etc. products would get so expensive that people would start complaining about it like they complain about gas prices. The people who live out in the country sustain those that live in the city. Until we can fully automate farming, that fact dictates that people will always need to live out in the boonies. Hopefully Wimax pans out for those people soon...

That said, boy am I ever glad that I moved to the city from the sticks, despite having had access to DSL and cable...
