Re: are the days of Republicorp numbered? Well they "control" it in a way. The call FCC guys in for hearings and they have sway over FCC as they created the FCC. they also fund it. »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Co···mmission
Funding is a lot of control. Ask the FAA »www.washingtonpost.com/local/con···ory.html

Interestingly ATT still recalls those days and knew going to court with DOJ was a bad thing as it could not buy the judges. It fares much better with congress and fcc -- Lakewood Accountability Action Group | »www.LAAG.us | Demanding action and accountability from local government

 | You did not give any "facts" in your post. Also my post you first commented on was not about SOPA. I said congress did not vote on ATT deal. You now bring up SOPA which is not part of this thread. I cant find all the vote totals (D vs R) out there (house and sen.) on SOPA but I am sure they were out there. "Biggest" supporters not verifiable unless you try to link cash taken from SOPA cos. thats heard to tally. So I go with total votes. This was cute since you bring up SOPA: »www.americablog.com/2012/01/stor···ney.html -- Lakewood Accountability Action Group | »www.LAAG.us | Demanding action and accountability from local government

 | reply to VerizonCynic What about the fact that UPS got the FCC to pull 2 MHZ of bandwidth from the amateur radio spectrum for a system that never happened? Go look that up.
How about the fact that multiple FCC commissioners go on to lobbying positions after they leave the agency? |
