Re: In before FiOS is too expensive

said by Telco:

This is crony capitalism Republican ideology interpreted as law.

Considering that Verizon was doing a good job building out FiOS when there was a Republican in the White House and stopped expanding FiOS after there was a Democrat in the White House how is this a Democrat vs. Republican issue. BTW just look at Solyndra and you'll see that Obama believes in crony capitalism as much as any politician.

The case with Solyndra is more than meets the eye. And you know why this was the case? Because the $0.5 Billion we 'loaned' was not only matched but wiped out by the $20 Billion 'granted' by China to their solar companies.

When it comes to FIOS, it's a simple case of corporations colluding rather than competing. Instead of spending billions to build out a competitive broadband network, they'd much rather work out a deal to secure spectrum and focus on their monopoly (wireless).

Of course, try to install a MUNI FTTH in FIOS territory, in homes not even covered, and watch them kick and scream about it.
