So unfortunately they are just words and will never happen. Evil controls the ignorant... Climate change is a hoax so is the vax you have been fear-porned into compliance!

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76747751 In his sprawling “High-Speed Internet for All” proposal, the Vermont senator and Democratic presidential candidate calls to treat internet like a public utility. His campaign argues that the internet should not be a “price gouging profit machine” for companies such as Comcast, AT&T and Verizon.

The entire problem with humanity is the multinationals bleeding us all dry, fucking NUKING mom and pops, and suing the shit out of anyone who gets in their way. How many different times have they tanked the global economy since 1929? Over the same shit, cornering the market. Then we make weak ass antitrust laws because the majority of human beings are too busy sucking the rich man's dick in the name of whatever stupid religious ideas they have. One rich fuck after the other with a new script, everyone bows down and begs to be cuckolded. It's a monarchy, it's feudalism. It's always been the same shit. |

User ID: 69719679 United States 12/06/2019 05:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The problem with the cable plan is the infrastructure it takes to make a cable network. If there are two competing networks, they can expect half the customers in a given area with the same infrastructure. That's why you rarely see two providers in the same service area. I just costs too much to install new hubs, fiber, wiring, data centers, etc. for an expected half the revenue at best. The competition is going to come by way of the wireless cellular carriers when they get the bandwidth & speed up to par with fiber. Now, you have to deal with satellite and the (un)reliability of that and your cell connection. Adversity is inevitable, misery is optional. Do or do not. There is no try.

Now, you have to deal with satellite and the (un)reliability of that and your cell connection. Declare all the infrastructure public property. Years ago, the government doled out billions of tax payers dollars to these giants to build the infrastructure in order to get us into the modern era. Even the backbones were government funded. What do they do? They failed in many areas as promised and the money went into the pockets of upper management and wall street. We see this over and over and over again where they take the money to enrich themselves rather than using it for the public as was intended. |

Oh wait... You have to be fucking stupid to believe anything bernie says. 2016 you might have had an excuse. But after he cucked right out and bent over for hillary handing her his money and support... you ARE fucking stupid to believe him again. and you STILL keep ignoring the democrats won't have a fair primary. again. you are monumentally stupid. epic. |
