Time to regulate broadband pricing like telephone pricing.
I read an article this week that stated that teachers are beginning to assign students projects that require internet access. The projects include creating programs to display on YouTube. Some teachers require students to download assignments. Broadband service is no longer a luxury but has become a necessity. Companies like Time Warner and Frontier are so greedy that they will cause a well deserved consumer backlash. Consumers will demand regulation of prices for this critical service. It is time for the government to stop broadband ISP's from gouging their customers.

I'd settle for a viable national broadband policy written by technologically savvy lawmakers that specifically outlines and realistically compares the U.S.'s pathetically overpriced /under-performing BB to countries like Japan. Then maybe this country will have a snowball's hope in hell of competing with the rest of the developed world instead of falling behind the 3rd world. -- The Toll
