4 edits | With tax credits will come deployment
He has a good idea in tax credits for deployment so long as it isn't a Verizon/PA redux. Double the credit if the deployment is with gen technologies.

And looking at Open Secrets his bread doesn't look overly buttered by the tech industry. Shocking.
Of course it doesn't help matters that 1/2 the people don't give a crap about the internet (according to a recent Pew survey). |

The Internet only started becoming a dominant force in the USA in the last 5-7 years, give it some time to develop...
The elderly don't count, they are ignorant to adopting new technology.

1 edit | 100Mb would be used/needed for services already available elsewhere like HD-IPTV. Nothing new to be seen here. For everything else you don't "need" 100Mb service, especially synchronous 100Mb service.
The benefit will come mainly from competition driving improvements in service and prices. As far as content...it'll just be another delivery method for the SAME content. |

Interesting comment - I was going to offer a retort on behalf of seniors -- but then I noticed you live in NJ - selecting the toxic dump for NYC as a domicile hardly qualifies you as a mental giant. Cheers. |

Cheers. No need to be an asshole... That has nothing to do with this topic, and NEW JERSEY IS THE BEST STATE IN THIS COUNTRY... I'd take NJ over Maine ANY day.. Troll.... NJ is definitely not a "toxic dump" you have no idea WTF you are talking about and if you think Newark NJ and the turnpike represent NJ you have something wrong with your head. And since when has location had any effect on IQ? It sounds like your an uneducated hick from the deep woods of Maine.
And not all Seniors are ignorant, but historically older people are set in their ways and they don't like to change in the later portion of their lives... The majority of Senior Citizens that I know are not internet/computer users... In the future, Senior Citizens WILL be using the internet/computers because they used it while younger.

Lets not get started on the shitty laws you have in Texas.... 
Only one state in this nation would elect a governor such as George Bush and then allow themselves to be raped by illegal Mexicans.

I am against anti-smoking laws in public establishments, I'm against the full service gas laws, I'm against the 19+ laws on substances that should be 18 and above (smoking, drinking, etc).... I'm definitely don't want anymore government in my life...
So I don't see how supporting a 100mbit national fiber network is the same as supporting nanny laws....
I think you made an uneducated comment about New Jersey and many people on this site are laughing their asses off at you since you know shit about this wonderful state. What does Maine bring to this country besides lobster and people like yourself who are dickheads?
