Part of my business is selling routers, modems, and wireless products in the industrial automation space. Nothing residential though. I spend time with IT guys and engineers and none of them complain about our Internet infrastructure.

On the personal side, I travel a lot throughout the US, a lot big cities small cities, rural areas, you name it, and I can always get a signal. So who are these poor souls who don't have internet access? Where are those areas? I'm pretty sure the companies who are in business to provide Internet access have everything covered.

With all the problems and pressing issues this country has, for a politician to make Internet access a campaign issue is just ridiculous. Maybe next she'll go after FanDuel and draftkings!

I think you are vastly underestimating the importance of internet access.

You're kind of treating it like it's TV.

Like If Hillary said "everyone should have HBO" then Id be sounding like you are about this.


I knew someone would take this as "Internet Access". This isnt Access, this is BETTER ACCESS for HIGH SPEED! Sure that would be nice, but if you think its a pressing issue in America, then you must be a DFS winner, because It isnt a top issue. You dont need HIGh SPEEd Access to post on stupid message boards, read documents and take classes. You need it for Music, Videos and Gaming....which is who she tried to appeal to.

You don't need a computer at all. You are just WAY behind if you don't have one.

Here is what Hillary says


This goal is already a stated one among American agencies and legislators. The FCC changed the definition of broadband earlier this year when it raised the minimum download speed needed from 4Mbps to 25Mbps and the minimum upload speed from 1Mbps to 3Mbps. Approximately 20 percent of Americans’ connections do not meet that standard. "High-speed internet access is not a luxury; it is a necessity for equal opportunity and social mobility in a 21st century economy," Clinton’s plan states. With that in mind, she says her plan will build on the Obama Administration’s efforts to equip public places, including libraries, schools, and mass transit systems, with these high-speed connections.

You might call it class warfare.

They already got free health care and phones from Obama, now Hillary is giving them free computers? Fuck those people.

I appreciate that Hawg is pretty upfront and consistent about it.


I see his point of view. I just no longer share it (I changed....like Rocky said)

Maybe one day I might change too, I don't like my chances, but yes maybe one day.

The internet is over rated as a production tool

The internet is porn, games, music, twitter and gambling.

Email does not need "high speed"...

You can clip and save.

Its an aamazing thing. Not sure it helps the overall vast production due to the mass distractions it produces as well.

Of course being able to email documents, view products, sell products, etc is amazing . Saves hours from the daily grind.

Now we add back the hours on this site, fantasy sites, houses/rentals, vacations, cars, porn, shopping, youtube, facebook.

I will assume it is a positive gain for work production on the internet, but not sure by how much due to the stuff listed above.

The best part of this is that I'd be surprised if anyone posting in this thread doesn't have broadband at home and work.

If it isn't important, then save some money and go back to dial-up!

once we have broadband for everybody the nsa can spy on us with 4k resolution and we wont even notice

but it is important. i know i waste at least 30min a day waiting for web pages to pop up at work. i do a lot of parts searching

think of that times millions. its a lot of lost productivity

He kind of showed himself when he said "My cell phone has a signal across the country". Not exactly what an expert would EVER say.


You quoted me using the term "cell phone"...except I ever mentioned cell phone in my post.

Where exactly are these places that don't have fast internet access? Honestly, I can't remember the last time I could not access high speed internet. Again, where exactly are these places that don't have high speed internet access?
