Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren unveiled a proposal to guarantee universal high-speed internet access on Wednesday as part of a new plan to invest in rural communities.
"I will make sure every home in America has a fiber broadband connection at a price families can afford," the senator from Massachusetts wrote in a post on the blogging platform Medium. "That means publicly-owned and operated networks — and no giant [internet service providers] running away with taxpayer dollars."


This is a solution in search of a problem

Meaning the federal government gets to decide what you look at on the internet.

Rather ambiguous phrase... should just go ahead and say it’s free like all the other candidates with their proposals

Don't we already have Obama phones?

And every device it's hooked up to will have 24/7 government propaganda you cannot disable or turn off.

This is one thing I supported Obama with.

There are 2 ISPs in my town and they both offer the same shitty plan at essentially the same rate.

15 mbps down and .5 up

For about $70-75 monthly.

Suddenlink goes down every month. I've logged 13 outages since the start of the year. The longest one being 13 days last month and my bill was somehow more expensive than the previous month. shite makes no sense like a wig with a perm in it.

The people that support these public options should be forced to use them.

ETA: nothing would make me happier knowing that Ted would have to go to the DMV to pay his internet bill.

You're a retard and a fraud.

How pathetic you must be to think acting like a Trump supporter was some clever attempt to score Lefty effort points.

Such a loser. LOL

This is more likely than people might think. No doubt if the government took over the internet conservative sites would become extinct

Just one of many plans they never plan on doing but hope youll believe them just to get votes . Internet for all, Medicare for all , reparations , free college , canceling student debt , and lets see what else $1000 baby bonds All while having open borders and taking away your second amendment . Anyone who supports this insanity has severe mental issues .
