"People Connect Program" nothing but expansion of Welfare

John McCain will establish a “People Connect Program” that rewards companies that offer high-speed Internet access services to low income customers by allowing these companies offset their tax liability for the cost of this service.
Nothing but another welfare policy. And people wonder why the Federal Deficit is so gigantic.

Yup..basically another version of USF.
Instead of taxing 'us', as a typical Republican, he'll reduce taxes as an incentive for them. Taxes or fees (taxes are for Democrats, fees are for Republicans... just another name for the same thing) will have to be made up somewhere.

I am sure you well correct me if I am wrong but it sounds more like another cooperate welfare program. Never intended to help the poor but instead help the bottom line of the company.

Welfare broadband programs for the poor would be providing support to the individual to help pay a net bill or providing some type of discount.

This proposal of his seems to be designed to help pay for the infrastructure in poor areas.
Considering that a poor neighborhood is often densely packed apartments and homes, which would create a large number of potential subscribers. It would be akin to paying the providers extra in one of their most potentially profitable areas.

Again welfare for the cooperation and nothing for those he pretends to represent.

No. Taxes are for Democrats, Adding Trillions to the National Deficit that we borrowed from "Rogue" Countries is for Republicans. There by, causing mass amounts of inflation. Little good those tax cuts due when you pay 20 percent more for you goods and pass the expense on to future generations. Same crap, different scenario and party.
