Re: Good public plan; but hard to enforce
said by TKJunkMail  :It could give a nice boost to the ISPs Some days you are brilliant, said by TKJunkMail : and allow more money for broadband expansion. and some days you are really a comic-book character.
We've had essentially no broadband expansion in the past two years. Flat. Nothing. We've fallen from the top 5 to below the top 20 in broadband penetration. It's not for the lack of demand: wireless data plans have tripled or quadrupled in their income over the same time. But instead of digging new ground (roughly $1000-2000 per new customer), it's cheaper for ISPs to buy one another -- and, in the few markets where there are choices -- influence customers to switch.
There would be no broadband expansion if this came here (which it won't).

It was also meant to be a bit in jest, sorry that was not communicated well. Please take it as such.
