Re: That's not suprising

A new survey conducted by International Data Corporation on behalf of Zeugma Systems
I wonder how much Zeugma paid to have that study done? If it was more than $5, they were taken to the cleaners.

But at least this explains why they are interested in caps and the monitoring of customer broadband usage:

Zeugma Systems is a supplier of carrier-grade, open telecommunications systems that allow broadband service providers to identify, monitor, manage, and customize traffic flows on a per-service, per-subscriber level.

Paid to have the study done or paid those that were involved in the study?

And why do you say that? Because the study discovered the obvious?

I have a way to summarize this summary:

"People hate to pay for anything."

Now.. where do I collect my poll money?

Really,.. the obvious is people would rather not have to pay. However, we have choices.. we can be socialists, we can be communist, or we can be capitalist. What would you prefer? The market works best when there are freedoms. The freedom doesn't mean to have what ever you want, it means you have the freedom to buy what you want in your means. This is the part that people HATE to hear (reality).. not everyone is going to be able to have what others do. Some people make more than others for a variety of reasons and if they made that money legally, so be it.

To think that anyone would believe they are entitled to have what someone else does "to be fare" is simply fantasy. The pure fact is that some people won't be able to have or afford what others do, plain and simple.

So yea.. the obvious is simple - no one wants to be told what they can and can't have with the amount of money available to them. The obvious is that MOST everyone wants to drive nice cars and own nice living spaces.. truth is, .. ain't gonna happen in ANY lifetime.

Socialist.

Every Government on earth is a Socialist government.

There's no true Capitalist or Communist governments and nor will there be as they are based on ideals that fail when exposed to actual reality.
