Re: 11% rural - no broadband because unavailable to them What it says is we need more competition in the market to drive down cost.
Of those rural people, did they consider satellite as a broadband source and then considered it too expensive? If so, then pushing broadband out does make sense... again competition. |

I would like to see a copy of the questions asked. Some of these poles have questions that can skew the results to meet the agenda of the pollster. |

This means we need to use more of my tax money to get this number to 100%. Perhaps 105% |

"A service inferior to dialup with the bonus of getting blocked by clouds, planes and assorted random bluejays" would be more like it. |

Actually, I'm not sure if the definition of record says anything about quality of connection or latency. My comment wasn't about my understanding of broadband, but the person in rural America's answers to the questions. |

Amen. But the big companies will do their best to make sure that NEVER happens. Should be illegal to lock out competition, imo, completely |
