More free bullshite I'm paying for. I pay $50 a month for my broadband cable internet.

Are there really people out there that are unable to get internet if they want it? Almost all of the studies/articles I have read claim that the 13% of households lacking a computer are almost all old people living in the rural countryside.

Awesome! I'm sure with quality streaming they'll be more motivated to go out and work.

You know the real problem, other than we can't afford it and they don't deserve it? It's that if you try to balance the budget and say, "I'm sorry, but the ability to stream the Avengers isn't a human right" those vote buying enablers will scream racism and classism and all the other invented insults.
What happened before all this ridiculous level of "safety nets" we have today was around.
If you didn't work, your family didn't eat. So you either worked, in whatever you could find, or you starved. And didn't have 9 children from different men. Because if the daddy wasn't gonna pay for them then the rest of us weren't forced to foot the bill.
These people aren't "poor". I've seen poor people. Worked with poor people. People that grew up in one room shacks with no electricity. People that knew what it was like to starve. What it was like to live out of a car. And it made them appreciate what they had after they EARNED IT.

It's another way for the NSA to track and collect data.
And us tax payers will have a new line item on our cable/phone bills to pay for this shite.

Geez more fricking free shite. A phone is one thing. But free internet? Tell em to go to the library or anywhere else with free internet.

My brother lives two miles outside the city limits and he pays out the arse for a hotspot with 5 GB of mobile data a month. His other choice is satellite internet which is even more expensive. Neither ATT nor the local cable operator has any interest in running a line out to the eight or ten houses on his road.

Congrats on working for a living. You get the privilege of paying more for less!

I have two choices. Dial up or Satellite internet.
how about Obama make the phone companies use the massive subsidies they get to provide crappy land line service and make them use them to upgrade rural lines for legit broadband access? No new government money needed

I cannot get broadband at the house. Unless you call 45k/sec dsl broadband.
I do not.

And we'll see a dramatic spike in completion of online job applications, right?
I was told this was the main reason behind the push to give every leech in this country the same luxuries I have to pay for.
