And whom is providing the government with the monies to do this? The tax payers and isn't a tax payer allowed to comment/argue what the monies are being used for?
Can just look at for example Kansas where the government done a poor job in managing the monies. 8 years ago toll free numbers was "removed". This year education gotten almost $500 in reduction, might not have monies to pay government payroll. Was talks last year that they might not be able to payout tax refunds (monies where the tax payers paid too MUCH). Anyone paying taxes have the right to bitch, whine and gripe about the government on anything they do that cost monies. Now if I or others might want to hear it here or in another place that is a different matter. / Eje -----Original Message----- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Tim Sylvester Sent: Sunday, December 13, 2009 7:28 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: Re: [WISPA] Report: Broadband stimulus funds won't suffice Yes, I am amazed. Amazed by the bitching and whining about government on this list by people who ... - sell wireless service using spectrum "owned" by everyone and allocated to them by the FCC for free or low cost. - sell access to the Internet, a network originally funded and developed by DARPA and later funded by the National Science Foundation. - drive on roads funded with taxpayer dollars and maintained by the government. - sell Internet service in rural areas to farmers that receive billions in government subsidies per year. - connect CPE equipment to electrical service that was funded by the Rural Electric Administration. - use VA health services. - will use Medicare and Social Security when they retire. - call the police and fire department when they need help. - send their kids to public schools.
