You can easily argue that this was the kick start for broadband and
"fast" internet we are now used to,
The open question is how long it would have taken the telcoms
without
this infusion of tax money and whether there was some federal help
in
getting easements, although most of the fiber followed existing
copper
paths.

Well, gee.. ya think? THe open question... what a load of ****.

I suppose that is true if you think nothing ever happens in this
country without massive amounts of government corporate welfare.


Some things happen, some don't. In your brain, government is bad, so I
guess you don't mind the superhighways and only drive on surface
streets. Oh yeah, they're funded by the government in part also.

And the government is funded by ........?


The people of course. According to the right, the government is evil
and should be drowned in a tub? So, assuming you're not insane, what's
your point with the comment?


Vesting power in people whose continued existence is keeping that power is inherently evil.
