Obama says TOTAL Broadband
 

Wants every kid in every home to have the opportunity to have internet and
access to a computer.
Look around BOY, it's way beyond the financial budgets of most of the poor.
Obviously he doesn't really understand the limitations of the "truly" poor
not having experienced it himself. Clothing, food and shelter are the
priorities here.
To add to this the world is in a financial crisis.....lack of funds
everywhere!
Lots of luck Obama lama ding dong.

As usual, the right-wingers in the group want to make fun of something
Obama wants to do. I think universal broadband access would be a great
step for the long-term competitiveness of our nation. The simple fact
is that America is no longer the home to most heavy industry and it is
unlikely those days will ever return, given the cheap industrial labor
available in the rest of the world. America's future must involve
increasing the educational level of Americans and re-training American
workers for handling and servicing global info flows. The prices of
computing machinery have already fallen greatly and will decrease more
with current projects underway to produce cheaper laptops for 3rd
world access. Universal broadband will also greatly change our
educational system enabling new types of home education and even
replacing schools.

Already, online education is taking off and more people than ever
before find themselves working via the internet. To ridicule this
effort because the poorest sectors cannot currently afford computers
is truly idiotic and ironic, given that those critiques are being
launched by folks with computers and internet access.

So far, I'm pretty impressed with Obama's cabinet picks (moderate
centrists) and his choices of policy initiatives. He's not even
President, yet, and is already proving to be a much stronger leader
that what we've grown to expect over the last eight years!

Ah yes but we in this group are not among the truly poor, are we? Give
your ass a shake Jack and take a drive through some of the poorer
neightbourhoods in your town. Do you see kids with laptops sitting on
their porches, not likely. They are probably there watching out for the
next drive by.
Hang out with a few of these mostly good people and if your lucky...POP,
you're eyes will open.
Do you really want everyone chained to the internet? Come on down from
that cloud you evaluate from and touch the real world!

Ah, but if Obama did any thing, you'd still be complaining. Yes, I
think everyone can benefit from broadband access. I teach inner city
blacks at a technical college. Yes, I know that many of them DO want
broadband access. Many of them are doing their best to survive. Just
out of curiosity, how would you help the inner city poor? Give them
handguns? Train them for industrial line jobs that Republicans are
outsourcing to Malaysia? What's your big solution? Oh, I know...more
tax breaks for the wealthy, right?

1. You were off-topic for several months before the election. You
ignored every plea to stop your behavior.

2. I have been posting on-topic (or at least as much as you have!)

3. You are the biggest hypocrite in this newsgroup. If you don't like
my off-topic posts, you have my permission to block me, which was your
response to requests to be on-topic.

4. I did not start this thread, why am I the one you are lodging
complaints with?

I'm really reaching the breaking point with you, Roy. If you can't be
polite, at least shoot for consistency.

Are you really as stupid as you appear? I shudder to think of the size
of your "brainpan."

How about getting the telecoms to either build it on their own or return
the $200 Billion they got for it back in the 90's.

See teletruth.org, $200B scandal
