Bravo Joe Biden, keep it up
""The president believes we can bring affordable, reliable, high-speed broadband to every American through a historic investment of $100 billion," the fact sheet said. The $100 billion in broadband funding would be spread out over a number of years, as the entire jobs plan is slated to "invest about $2 trillion this decade."
Great to have this kind of drive back to the White House. It's a plan, not a collection of passed bills, but I still applaud the Biden folks for having a damn plan - one that doesn't screw consumers. Little bummed no min speeds designated, but the rest pretty much means a possible hastening of fiber rollout soon. We simply cannot expect rural areas to thrive without real broadband. Period.
Comcast, AT&T, Cox, etc will be upset, and uh well, anyway...
