Because if the government decides that it can, at any point, kill off your entire industry and destroy hundreds of billions in value, then we’re all fucked.
- bnjms 7y agoYou are the government. Small communities running their own network is the best case for everyone. The labor required will not change so those of us with networking skills will still have work and the scale is still high enough to pay is well. As long as the wireless industry exists to provide competition I still wonder why are you worried?
- mytailorisrich 7y agoUnder the proposal we are discussing here, which is to nationalise broadband providers and to then provide the service 'free' to consumers there is no competition. Once this is done, then of course someone will say "hey let's nationalise the wireless industry as well"... Those guys are real Marxists, that's their ideology and goal.
- bnjms 7y agoApologies, that's the worst case.
