Re: How much to wire the entire population said by Philmatic:... How much would that be? 500 billion? 1 trillion? Isn't that worth it? Maybe, it depends what it's used for, and how it is paid back ( I don't wish to pay for some hillbilly wanker to download Porn at GB/second, on the other hand if it gives him/her a valid chance at a taxpaying career...)said by Philmatic:... How much could the government make BACK by leasing or selling the lines to multiple carriers so they can compete on it? Probably nothing, the Gov't isn't designed to or good at making money.. best /most optimsic outcome would be break even on the direct service costs, make up the capital cost on tax revenue. |

Thats why the government is making BILLONS in interest on all the bailout loans that are being paid back by banks. |
