It honestly doesn't make sense. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but sometimes the stupidity coming from both sides in government is so obvious I have to believe it is intentional.
It feels like our country is being prostituted economically -- foreign aid, welfare, corporate welfare, endless wars and foreign intervention, millions in earmarks to promote perverse ideologies, preventing municipalities from offering high-speed Internet as a utility despite ridiculously successful examples like Chattanooga, all to maintain Comcast's and AT&Ts monopoly on those services.
It's too much...
