As it stands for me, I don't live out in the boon-docs. In face, I live in a fairly large city, this state's capitol if you will. When I moved in, I was told broadband was an option -- but what they didn't say was that broadband over 1MB was not available (nor does it seem that it ever will be). Comcast isn't out on my block (a big surprise too), so I must rely on the aging lead and copper wires in the air for my broadband.
As far as Amtrak -- Amtrak wouldn't serve anybody except for the biggest cities, if they weren't forced to. How would those without a car get from point a to point b? Greyhound would be a similar scenario.
Roads -- Thank the politicians for the way bills get voted on. |
