Now don't get me wrong. Socialism as a primary means of economy does not work. However the resistance to even the idea of money gained from companies to help the common good over here is beyond insane. You had idiots saying we ought to not give a SINGLE million to Bussard's fusion research even tho the payback would be of the most value in the history of man. (The first today is the Apollo program which was opposed by the deep religious right even tho it had an insane amount of spinoffs)

Why do you want broadband for everyone? Because internet connects people to good jobs. And it gives them a chance to do business and perhaps even gain a slighly bit of better education (Tho I guess some of these so called "Fiscal Conservatives" are just happy of a nation where almost 50 percent of high school students can't name the FIRST US President even tho he adorns the "green" they love so much)
