Because of all the bullshit with subsidies etc. intended for improving broadband infrastructure being abused, my dream is:
You have my vote if you run for office.
I’ve heard in other countries they have a CHOICE of electricity providers. Boggles my mind. CHOOSE who you buy electricity from? Like more than 1?
In Atlanta I had a choice of natural gas companies, even though it would have been cheaper if there were simply one single regulated monopoly.
Competing utilities are just a way to give out cash to rent-seeking middlemen.
Pennsylvania has choice of electricity provider. You pay a line maintenance fee to the line owner of a few cents per kWh, then you have a choice of dozens of providers for the electricity itself.
This is the case in the UK. Rare example of where privatisation of a utility went well. Don't ask about the water
In my city there is so much completion in the internet space that the prices have dropped significantly. It is also in very high demand as my city is growing extremely fast.
I'm not sure if it will last but the demand made it cost effective for the internet companies to install fiber everywhere. They literally have trucks and people deploying new fiber lines 5 days a week.
