This is not true in rural America. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth for millions of Americans.

And what about the money blown on climate change, ObamaCare, ObamaPhones...
Sorry but is this a repeat from another post?
Good one.
Or, we could protect America's borders - FOREVER.

Pretty much all end up on welfare, their children in our sytem at $15,000 per child a year on public school.
Free wifi for a year or stop the bleeding of he country?
Let the poor go to McDonalds, the library, or Starbucks if they need wifi!
The women got the free pills Schumer promised them . However, those same women now pay premiums twice as high with deductibles three ties higher for crappy medical care for free pills that would have otherwise cost them less than ten bucks a month

We don’t need that. Back in the days before the internet those of us at Digital Equipment Corporation knew it wouldn’t go well once the plebes got access. Don’t make it worse.
Broadband or Safety ,hard choice ,D’oh
I will pay for my broadband myself thank you. I expect the federal government to keep me safe from terrorists, drug gangs and human traFficers, BUILD THE WALL
Better idea: we could start paying down the Wall by donating Schumer’s salary.
The money could better be used to send all LIB idiots to exile.
And MS-13 can continue killing Americans.
Shumer is a disgusting vile human being.
I want the wall instead, hold the mayo.
