Another inefficient government program
obviously it's blatant communism, so no doubt conservative rural residents will be against it.
or not.
conservative rural voters love communism when it benefits them, which it does more often than not.
roads, electric, phone, are all communist giveaways to conservative rural residents, financed by liberal city dwellers.
it's also a $42 billion subsidy for internet providers, and i question if there will be any price regulation what so ever associated with.
public funding for private gain.
that said, providing internet should be done by the govt, or a govt and price regulated monopoly done by private provider.
several municipalities and states tried to do it publicly, only to have big telecom lobby state govts to make doing so illegal.
the US probably gets the worst bang for the buck in internet provision, of the civilized world.
of course it's not personal. it's just business. (and blatant corruption).
the US household is paying a $100 mo corruption tax for cable and internet..
