Re: No excuse..

There's simply no excuse why every home in the U.S. cannot subscribe to DSL. If they have access to a phone line, they should have access to DSL. The same goes with cable TV. There's just no valid excuse.

This is why I don't support giving any funding to Comcast, AT&T, Verizon or any of the big companies to expand their network. IMO, they haven't made the effort, and therefore don't deserve any help.
You can always build up a network and make it happen if you like.
It'd be impossible. I'd spend more time in litigation than actually building the network. The telco's and cable companies would see that my funding would all be spent in court and not in the actual network.

Why not a be a do-er instead of asking someone else to do it?

This attitude is why we're falling behind. How about we actually hold these companies to their promises? We make franchise agreements with them. We give them billions in tax credits and subsidies and what do we have to show for it?

I don't need to build anything, we need to force them to hold up their end of the deal.

That's working well. Once you have identified something as not working as you have... you either push harder or in the bright glare of reality you go another route. At what point will you go the other route?

I don't think he's being a troll here as much as he's just being honest. DSL stations need to be within 5 miles (measured by cabling not as the crow flies) from every one of locations that they service. These cost a lot of money to build and maintain. Just like we don't expect a well maintained paved road built out to a single cot deep out in the woods we shouldn't expect anything except wireless "high speed" internet there either.

Because he can't do it for the reasons he stated above

Simply ignoring what he said as if it doesn't exist tells me you understand the reasons he can't and simply don't want to acknowledge them

I'm glad the "I can't" philosophy has taken over.
