Motorcycle parts???

They better get some broadband for all that HD flash shit you need to view the webpage.

Copper and Fiberoptic cables are very expensive by themselves. The cost to put that stuff up or bury it is pretty big too. I wonder how much it'd cost to just get locates for 10miles of copper to some jokers house in the middle of South Carolina?

Existing infrastructure is all that is needed really. Adsl uses existing phone lines, I don`t see the big deal..

So we are trying to get high speed internet service to people who don't even have a telephone?

We all pay for it, but in case you nitwits missed it, we all benefit. The plan calls for improvements in bandwidth and capacities for all, in order to catch up to other countries, since we now rank 15th.

I know a bunch of people who died from cancer. We could put more money into cancer research, but instead we drop coin on this? If you life too far out for cable get DirectTV and fuck off. Nowhere does life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness preclude you having to wait a few extra seconds for your porn to download. Common sense people.

The porn part is funny but its not just about that. I know people that have died from cancer as well. I agree that with money being put into that. I also know someone that has a father that passed away with aids. Money could be put into that as well. But it doesn't mean that money can't be put into this as well.

This poor kid only opens his mouth to let crap out. He should really consider being a fucking mime. He'd at least come off looking perhaps a bit more intelligent. Maybe.

I'm not the one crying because a juice that says 100% juice is 100% juice but not 100% juice of the juice I want.

Don't worry. President Obama will make it better for you

Ethics. Look it up. Works rather well in life in general - business too!

For a Capitalist system to work in a Democracy, regulation is necessary when the market does not self-adjust to eliminate and correct unethical business trends that are predatory to consumers.

You should perhaps study a little more about politics and human social systems so you don't look so silly.

You should perhaps study 5th grade Social Studies. We are not a democracy.
