Re: Such a waste of time
Ok, I am going to stab this one..
Let me start with, I HATE LOBYISTS!!
But, a reality check... aren't lobyists tax payors too? Yes they represent businesses as well, but aren't the people that have interest in business ALSO tax payors AND electorate too?
You guys do realize that lobyists ARE part of the process don't you? Not all lobyists pay off politicians. A Lobyist is a mouth piece for a "group of people" and that group can also be an citizen group. The lobyist is just the mouth piece sent to congress to get the voice heard.
Limiting the scope on who can and can't say what to whom is actually NOT the way out founding fathers intended our government to run. If you want the common good for all people represented at all time, then may I suggest communism?
EVERYONE CAN HAVE THIER VOICE HEARD and be represented... FORM A GROUP and organize... sit back as one voice and fall into the croud of too many to be heard.
I DO have a question, do you guys really think this will pass? I am not going to give this one a second wink. I think it's nothing more than a law maker trying to get some advertising and air time for a popularity or image boost.
For the record, didn't cable tv get it start by a small group forming their own delivery system? Yup!
So, why would government try to ban the same thing in round two? Also, ban community WiFi? Give me a break.. this piece of legislation is nothing more than "if you aren't a big guy, don't try to start your own ISP because we say no. It will never make it past a judge as legal anyway.
Ask youreslf, where are these Community WiFi people supposed to get their connection to the internet from anyway? AND if they do, and offer a service, aren't they then a business, ie: competition?
This legislation is plain, flat, simple, STUPID and a waste of time. Again, a publicity booster for the idgit sponsoring it. |
