Illinois Ignores Judge Warnings, Approves Verizon/Frontier Deal → Not suprised one bit

The State here in Illinois is bought and paid for. And not by the taxpayers.

Yep. 150% Yep.

Agreed, its pretty obvious that money changed hands under the table here and bought this decision.

neither am i.
money talks they say.
i talk to and i say SCrew you Asses

LMAO, could of not said it better myself. I wonder how much Quinn will get since he will hopefully be jobless after the next election. Oh well, bring on the next crook.

Yep another one of our governors that is corrupt and willing to take a bribe.

This so called Frontier will have to keep up with a strict code is crap. And what happens when they don't. I get screwed and I won't be able to do anything about it.

Yes I will get screwed cause I live in a trailer court that won't let Comcast in the park and all we have is Verizon or MTCO and the problem is MTCO uses the same dsl lines as Verizon.

Thanks to all the corrupt politicians that take contributions bribes. Now how come we have to have elections every two years for these clowns. Why can't we get something set up that says when 60 percent of the voters in the state,county or city is unhappy with the elected politicians then they can have a new election.

you can get 3G services. You're not stuck with VZ/Frontier.

It's obvious that money, hookers, and drugs went under the table to make sure it got approved. The legislatures and judges have simply become clients of the lobbyists, putting the interests of business way in front of the interests of taxpayers. How many taxpayers can slip a judge half a million in an offshore account?

An Ohio consumer group originally panned the plan for Frontier then magically approved it as well and so did the state unfortunately. I need to write a email telling them how stupid they are...

You are joking, right?

Um 3G isn't broadband. I think you seen to many AT&T commercials.

Just a quick search on 3G speed. »www.mobilein.com/3G.htm

That's an alternative?

Remember, its the same state that Obama came from.

And its the same state that Obama came from.

and not much different than any other state or Pres.

Uh now.

3g is broadband it is above the 768k that the FCC defines as broadband. and ugh, its better than nothing. But then again you just wanna complain about a merger that you can't do anything about because of "options" not being what you want. If you want more "options" move to get that HSI that you want.

Why do some user think the answer is move. I can barely afford where I live now. Now I'll tell you what, I'll move if you can find me a place around here that I can afford.

Always the answer is move if you don't have true competition. Some people live where they live cause they can't afford somewhere else, Some people live where they live cause they like it there. There are reasons why some people don't move that I'm sure I can't think of.

NO, The answer is not move.

where are you from? looks like the same state that bush is from. hmmm

Here in Evanston, my t-mobile 3g is between 1.5Mbps and 3Mbps. it definitely is broadband.

that is not my issue that you can not afford the place you live in. If you can not afford your home you should not be living there, instead you should find a place that is within your budget so you have money for internet and other entertainment wants.

same here in Cleveland.
