Totals Stimulus Package Cost To Broadband Rural Areas: $349,000/home. $7,000,000/home In Montana!

On FNC, Gov Huckabee just revealed the cost to you and me to bring Broadband internet service to rural areas through Obama’s Stimulus package. It was $349,000 per home, and you and I paid it!
In Montana, it was worse. The program made Broadband available to a total of 7 homes that did not have it available before, at a cost to you and me of $49,000,000. That’s $7,000,000 per home.
The total cost was $7.2 BILLION... and we... and our kids... and their kids, paid the bill!

I need a little bit faster internet here but if given the choice I’ll take the $7m and and run. If I need Verizon Fios, I’ll live elsewhere.
What year is Jeb Bush in?
A car in every garage.
A chicken in every pot.
And a pony.
He seems very pleased when they comply.
Jeb Bush, spend your own damn money on it.
Sincerely,

Imagine if everybody could watch a TikTok, cat videos and porn at 1 Gbps. What a world it would be!
Welcome back Gore
Thanks low energy one !
The country is on the brink of being destroyed by Marxists and this is his dream? WTF is wrong with these people? Where is W? I supported him for 8 years and they are telling the country to go to hell because Trump hurt their feelings?
Well Jeb, I suppose you will open your wallet to pay for laying all the fiber optic cable to or near enough to every home in rural America. Gee, thanks.
Leave my DSL alone!
If the cable company gets cable or fiber to my rural address, I’m going to have to shell out big bucks to run cable the last half mile to my house.
That kind of help I don’t need.
Jeb! How much money have you been talked into investing in these newfangled frequency structures?
You can tell me...
Elon has brought faster, better internet to my rural house without even starting to sell his system.
The only internet I can get is called "microwave internet"-- essentially microwave towers that interact with a dish on my roof aimed at the tower. Not very good, but when the only other game in town is satellite, with huge latency problems it is the best available.
After years of telling us that faster speeds were impossible, too costly, not feasible, blah, blah blah the goad of competition from Elon has caused them to start improving things. I am now getting 20 MBPS, which may not sound like a lot to you city dwellers, but is a miracle out here in the sticks. It is enough to stream TV.
And latency has Elon's projection beaten.
I suspect I will bite the bullet and pay for both systems for a month when Starlink becomes available here, but if I am getting better speeds and less latency there is no good reason to go to satellite.
