It worked for cable t.v....
No, not quite as far as china. But in the interest of economic national security.....some have to be reigned in. The oil industry is like a fat lady at a table full of chocolate cakes......pull her back or she'll die gorging herself......its for everyones good...
This kind of talk frightens me. What do you think of the Patriot act? "in the interest of economic national security". Should the goverment take over everything?
How can you honestly say you want the goverment to take over anything after what we have experienced the past few years.
We have enjoyed some of the cheapest gasoline in the world for a very long time. There is a set amount of oil in the world. All of a sudden you have a huge increase in demand coming from china. No longer are we the only huge oil consumer. Prices are going to go up. What we need to do is find a viable alternative that is cost effective.
Turning into a socalist country will stifle our economy and eliminate innovation and prosperity that we all enjoy.
Also remember Comcast was able to grow up to 75% to lay the fiber. Having several companies do it would have been impossible. Now you are seeing comcast limit bandwidth for certain customers. Also they have been talking about limiting bandwidth for certain sites and tracking usage.
