Re: USE IT!

Bandwidth should never be nationalized and run by the gubmint. That is a recipe for absolute failure. It is completely against the capitalistic ethos this country runs on. Now, I am sure you'll bring up China or some other communist country as an example, but it's a slippery slope. Once gubmint controls one thing, it's on to the next. I agree with you in that these companies are greedy greedy greedy, but nationalizing ain't the answer.

Re: USE IT!

I take it you're against municipal broadband then? Contrary to what you believe, some governments (that aren't Communist) can actually provide these types of services without running it like a dictator.
