I'm very, very, very tired of absolute and total incompetence of government being given my money and used against the people's interest and for the interests of the rich, powerful, or elected. As should EVERYONE.
Our nation faces very possible complete economic destruction and 100% of the fault lies at the feet of government. And yet, you're "tired" of hearing my "government should not be running this stuff" comments? We now observe the results of letting the government "adjust" the markets for its benefit. Can we now at least agree on the gross stupidity of doing so? They're now talking about all but completely taking over the broadband supplier system, and you're still thinking this is good? Because there's a slim chance you might get "free" money from the trough in DC? The whole economic world is exploding due to the VERY things discussed (government adjusting how and which consumers get what), and you're still hoping to "get your share"? Has everyone lost their minds? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ <insert witty tagline here> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Nash" <[email protected]> To: "WISPA General List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2008 11:17 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Congress may help smaller ISPs grow > I'm very tired of hearing your anti-government sentiment, Mark.
