Well, at least I agree with something in these multiple articles. Can someone tell me again why we're expecting companies to roll out services and infrastructure to areas that will never even pay off the cost of that infrastructure in our lifetimes?
Those who want this BB policy expect the taxpayers to pay for broadband to every little rural whistle stop and farmhouse, and damn the cost. In other words, become more of a socialist country than we already are.
Mine as well be more socialist.

I mean really we have so many problems not addressed at this point whats one more in the pot.

Why can't we take the usf slush fund and actually use it for something other then letting the companies dip in to make their bottom line look better.

Yes, why are we still spending zillions to make universal landline voice service available to anyone who can afford to pay the monthly bill?
