1. Anyone who believes this somehow protects us against China is stupid.

2. Anyone who proposes it somehow protects us against China is evil, with another agenda.

3. Whomever made the proposal must be fired immediately. Today.

If big telecom corporations had built the highways, they would be free, fast and well maintained in and immediately around the big cities.

But travel at a very slow rate of speed through a specific rural area would cost each driver $149.99 per month to be paid to the company owning that piece of turf.

“Non-competition agreements? Do you see any such agreement? Prove it! Pay up, or stop driving in the country!”

Most of you were right. Axios is not trustworthy. It's fake news. The following article is *very* interesting to read in full. Someone put much work into it.

1. Anyone who believes this somehow protects us against China is stupid.

Add one more to your list:

4. Anyone who thinks a centralized 5G network won't somehow restrict content to U.S. based end consumers is stupid.

Think about it: China restricts what its Internet users see by restricting access from the Internet through a centralized chokepoint into the country's network.

Once a 5G network is centralized, the US Government can do the exact same thing: Restricting content it allows ONTO the 5G network and restricting content generated within the 5G network via a centralized administration & filtering scheme.

It's a one-world order dream to control what we see. This would be one way to accomplish it.

What a way to twist that Trump thinks that companies should try to provide fast and reliable communications to as many of us as possible instead of letting some companies monopolizing areas at the expense of spotty/no coverage...Cable One has been in the Biloxi area for decades and the original agreement for them to monopolize it was to provide full coverage/access - 24 years ago, I moved to an area that wasn’t covered even though the contract said it needed to be - still no cable access and they still enjoy a cable monopoly....

To all the “conservatives” and “constitutionalists” who are crapping their pants right now, consider this....

The Constitution of the U.S. has 18 specifically enumerated rights and responsibilities of the federal government. Among these are levying taxes, immigration and naturalization AND......

ESTABLISHMENT OF POST OFFICES AND POST ROADS

While I do think that it is WAY too far of a jump to say “regulating interstate commerce” means limiting what a farmer is allowed to grow or allowing the establishment of the ATF, I think it is perfectly reasonable to say that the 21st century 5G network is just the natural modern extension of the 18th century postal system and could reasonably be though of as a constitutional responsibility of the federal government.
