I'm all for a national broadband fiber policy, as long as business and the government has no part on it. |

| reply to XBL2009 I do not like government telling private industries what they have to do.What the government needs to do is to facilitate innovations and to watch out for collusions on pricing or any other activity that distort the market, the market will then take care of the rest. |
