Re: Martin: outrageous lies, deception of public and fat checks
said by packetscan  :"Do you like money? I sure as hell do. Why would I eat the cost of a high-priced installation, and roll-out fiber in a low-income community that I don't think can afford it?" Thank you for your racist comments move along now. Exactly what about Insider's post was racial? Or are you (packetscan) suggesting that all individuals who live in low income areas are minorities? Or that all welfare recipients are minorities?
Seems to me that insider's post was very factual and made great business sense. But since it is so easy to interject the anti-bush propoganda you liberals like to spew without any sort of proof behind it, I guess we should all just eat the cost. Keep that tin foil hat handy, I think you are going to need it come November.

| They're not getting screwed, I'm saying that the whole point of them rolling it out is for profit, it's simple business. If they can't expect a profit, then they need to roll out in areas where they can get a profit, so the lower-income areas will be able to have it, and thus they can have it done and at a slight loss.

Listen you little Prick..
While all my friends on the other side of town had dsl i had nothing.. Then Optonline came to town and wired the ENTIRE town. Everyone that could afford it had the service. My parents busted their asses to give my brother and i everything they could. I want to make sure that people like me have access to services just like the other side of town.
Get it now?

Wow, give me a sad story. So, if you're so poor, where'd you pull the money for premium BBR (something I don't even have?). Also, I'm pretty sure if you had cable television, then Opt Online didn't have to "wire" the whole town, the wires were there, they just had to light it up. Plus the fact that coax is a lot cheaper than fiber optic cabling, the same goes for installs (modem vs. ONT/BBU/free router). Fiber Optics costs more to deploy (someone tell me if I'm wrong, please). Nobody is going to feel sorry, and it's sad to say, the world is run on business. If Verizon wants a profit, they have to go somewhere where the residents can afford and pay for their high-end services (10 for dial-up vs. 40 for FIOS). It's a fact of life. There is no racism here, I'm not saying it sucks that you were poor or whatever, I just don't think that matters because business is money, and money is something most low-income cities don't have.

Still missing the point..
It's illegal to discriminate.
It's illegal to discriminate because of income.
It's illegal to discriminate because of race
It's ...... Get the point yet?
Everyone is equal..

It is illegal to discriminate based on race. The others aren't illegal. And the idea that everyone is equal is only in the dreams of commies.

Everyone is equal, doesn't mean businesses follow those rules. Everyone breaks rules, and inequality rules? Nobody has proven that low income neighborhoods don't get it first, because they always end up getting it sooner or later. That's the funny part here, Verizon gets their profit, everyone shuts up, etc, etc. Also, you said everyone in your area was poor (rant about how hard your parents were, for the record), not me.

| You called me a racist. Find me one section of any of my posts where I dwelled on race, and even called your area poor. You insinuated you live in a low-income area, just like you said I was a racist.

| I'm finding a few spots where I state how you called your own area poor (with that little rant about how nobody wired me up for DSL, then cable came to save the day!), and then how I said that you called yourself poor (by stating that your parents worked hard). But I don't see me outright calling your area or even you poor. Try again, please.

said by packetscan :Listen you little Prick.. Yep this is the mature manner we should all strive for.
said by packetscan :While all my friends on the other side of town had dsl i had nothing.. Jealous much?
said by packetscan :Then Optonline came to town and wired the ENTIRE town. Everyone that could afford it had the service. So I guess the Mega-corporations should have lowered their prices so that everyone would be able to have the service you enjoyed. Or better yet why not just give it out for free and let the people who actually have jobs pay for those who don't want to work for their luxuries. Oh wait now that you got yours, do you really care about the others?
said by packetscan :My parents busted their asses to give my brother and i everything they could. I want to make sure that people like me have access to services just like the other side of town. Sounds like your parents have a real good work ethic and understood that is takes a lot of hard work to earn the things they perceive as important. I can respect that. Unfortunately it does not seem to have rubbed off on you. I still don't fault your parents some people will just never get it.
said by packetscan :Get it now? Yep, I sure do and I stand by my original assessment:
CRY MORE NOOB!!
