When the revolution comes, everything will be free! Mika Brzezinski gave us today some good insight into the liberal mind when it comes to economics. The Morning Joe host was reacting today to news that for Thanksgiving, Verizon will be giving travelers free wifi in flight and at several airports around the country. Mocked Mika: "thank you so much for something you shouldn't be charging us for anyway."

Thanks for the link! Very interesting. I work at a places builds equipment similar to what is being installed in that video.
If you want a better look at what’s happening set the playback speed to 0.25.
I wonder, does MSLSD pay for internet service?
Or should the internet companies provide it for free, Mika?
Ditzes like Mika are why there are Polish jokes.
This fascinating video from United Airlines showing wifi installation in a commercial jet aircraft CLEARLY demonstrates that there is zero cost to providing wireless on planes and these carriers are nothing more than selfish, evil, money-grubbing capitalists.. /snark
So just add the cost to the tickets of all flyers including those who do not use the wi-fi. Mika is an idiot...when I teach college economics my first day lesson is there is no free lunch.
“A liberal paradise would be a place where everybody has guaranteed employment,
free comprehensive healthcare, free education, free food, free housing,
free clothing, free utilities, and only law enforcement has guns.”
“And believe it or not, such a place does, indeed, exist. It’s called prison.”

The BLOND never gets it nothing is free someone has to pay for it.
Then pMSNBC’s parent, Comcast, shouldn’t be charging me for internet access, let alone MSNBC?
Can’t remember the last time I stopped on it, intentionally or fat fingering the remote.
Equipping an airplane with wifi adds hundreds of pounds in weight to the aircraft. Of course, this is totally lost on the “commodities should be free” crowd.
The unit cost about $100,000 per airplane to install, and around $2800 per month for unlimited data.
