Re: Two problems Man, you aren't the only one who's been thinking that. As far as usage, integration and what the Feds have been preaching for teh past few years in their war on terrorism pep rallies, it already is. It just hasn't been stated/accepted by the FCC and other regulatory agencies. Because then, how do you do it without putting out of buisness all the current providers? I don't think that you can. And noone in the govt. want's to be labeled as "one of them that killed 10,000 jobs".
Also, in the telecom and electricity beginning, it was a provate company that was granted a monopoly in return for being told how much profit he could make. In the beginning.
As for the concern for what to roll out, you can only go with what you have that's best at the time. After all, many of our utilities and networks are in MAJOR need for a rebuild. At this point it looks like ftth is what should be rolled out. Even if it's just the fiber that the town owns and leases out to the content providers.
OR the govt just hands out grants and says "Go and be fruitful! But you must have it done in a tenday and you may not make more than x% profit per y". I think it's this last item that THEY are looking to do.
