Hmmm...I guess we didn't have presidential campaigns prior to the mid-80's. | |

1 edit | said by skurfa:Guess it's time for McCain to pay back VZW an ATT for the special towers he got huh? McCain is just posturing.
A few decades ago Conservatives, with the help of the Chicago school of economics (Friedmanites) reshaped traditional studies of what was called "Political Economics" (as espoused by Adam Smith and David Ricardo) into a purely mathematical endeavor. It became a "Theory of Everything." It could be applied to schools, wars, immigration. The world became simple when socio-political needs were subservient to black/white math.
It's the same belief system which had former Fed Chairman Greenspan arguing for deregulation of margin/leverage just a week before the LTCM crisis in '98. A crisis due to deregulation, and specifically the use of 18:1 leverage ratios outside any system of regulation. (Compare that to today's meltdown where big-name institutions used 30:1 ratios.).
McCain's just appealing to this relatively new Conservative belief system. Describe economic issues from a purely mathematical standpoint. Ignore how the affected businesses became what they are either through socially-created monopolies, or 30 years of government investment in the development of technologies like the Internet (under DARPA).

Don't even think of using your data card. If you do, we'll nail you with heavy penalties.
I'm going to hate it when AT&T takes over Alltel here. I might just cancel my service all together and get a TracFone.

Whittier, AK | Re: LOL Correct but Verizon had to sell off some area in order for the sale to go thru which then ATT purchased.

| Re: Vomit Comet I was wondering when someone replied to that.
These ISPs congratulating themselves is like:
»baseballcrank.com/archives2/2005···_wro.php
Politicians using 13 million in katrina relief funds to build a museum celebrating the guys who caused the hurricane katrina disaster, the Amry Crops of engineers.
Which is basically like building a statue of a retard. | |

Mount Airy, MD | Agree Totally Broadband in the US is a genuine success story. Without the government wasting (sadly not any anymore) taxpayer money, private industry was able to get most of the nation's households and businesses connected to the Internet via broadband.
Not bad indeed.
