Re: So, as thought, Taxpayers (us) already paid for it

Thats besides the point if we already paid them to build it, its like a builder asking for money to build a house, but the people keep wanting to change the plans already in construction.

SBC is not going to put a RT up that grants other companies rights to use it to. No logic in it, the states are holding SBC hostage, not the other way around. Plain and simple.

If PLC goes mainstream, every other broadband provider will be considered what dialup is today...not broadband.

Besides the point? Are you kidding?

So, you're saying you're willing to pay upfront for something that is never delivered, and then when you complain, they demand you pay them again...? and again?

No it's not like a Customer who keeps changing their order. The Telco controls the "features" of the network, not the consumer. The consumer just pays for it, even if it is never actually built.

horribly flawed logic.

We'll be incredibly lucky to make it out of this decade without an attack that dwarfs 9/11 due to the current U.S. led war.
