ok i know all about the smaller countries have it easier.
They are smaller, have less money
we are bigger and have more money
If some frikkin coalition of companies helped by the government would get on the ball we'd have decent internet access. I mean come on! Where I use to live (right off Interstate 95 in south florida) where theres new communities that are 0 lot line (unbelievable amounts of homes per square mile) they dont qualify for DSL or Cable Internet. It's ridiculous.

But then again..now that i think about it, our money is most likely being stored in a huge ass safe(probably worlds best  )so the big timers can have 13 mansions with maids, and private jets stored in each one. |

»www.searleffect.com  But it's up to you. Want to go? People need to start worrying about more important things than entertainment, true.
Still need to work on the quantum entanglement for communications. Let's face it, even using light to communicate from the Earth to say... Mars, the ping times would be "astronomical". 
Believe it or not, there are those of us who think about these things daily, and are tired of the way this country is falling behind in science and technology, compared to other countries. |

The thing that really annoys me is that musicians, actors and pro athletes are ridiculously wealthy. Where as teachers, police or nurses are almost broke.
I'm with you though, its too bad that we will never set foot on another planet. I mean, just look at how bad we are getting screwed over to make a buck in areas like oil. (and of course broadband) If they can rake us over the coals for one extra cent for one extra day, you better believe it will happen.
Just imagine how much money/control they would lose if we could live on another planet! |

It's patriotic to point out things you don't like about any country - much more so than acting like everything is perfect in the god-blessed land, when it's not. I agree with him that we are not better than everyone else - but maybe he is helping to change that by pointing it out! If the US has a booger on it's face, he's saying wipe it off! It's a labor of love... |

haha another floridian, no f kidding, here in Boca Raton its a little better in land but not by much its not like we don't have once house almost on top of another, there is plenty of people and money here, and still we have shit speed.
Lets face it, its all about getting the most money out of us for the least amount of work. So who really runs those big companies that do DSL and Cable maybe its some Euro after all we seem to sell our own kids if their was a market for it. |
