USDA Opens Application Portal for New ReConnect Rural Broadband Infrastructure Program
These funds will enable the federal government to partner with the private sector and rural communities to build modern broadband infrastructure in areas with insufficient internet service.
Why is this the job of the Fed Govt?????
It isn't their job. This is just another sneaky way of redistributing money to help their base. The leftists are pushing for murderers to vote from prison. I guess people like the Boston bomber are their base and they intend to cater to them any way possible.
The private sector does much better though you'll never get a big government-loving idiot leftist to admit that. The most advances in everything are due to the private sector. Government fucks things up and spends a ton of money doing it. The private sector will step up when there is a demand. Of course, they need customers who are willing to pay for the service or product.
Government is what screws up the economy. While leftists complain about capitalism, they approve of crony capitalism, which is at the core of most of our problems.
It's government's fault that college tuition went up. As soon as they took over student loans, tuition costs soared because the mainly liberal institutions saw deep pockets and took advantage of it. While leftists like Warren want tax payers to pay for college because those graduates just can't pay their own bills, she and others make insane salaries for indoctrinating students. Now she wants us to pay for their student loans because the snowflakes can't find a decent job. They left their safe spaces and can't handle things in the real world.
The medical costs went up because Big Pharma saw deep pockets thanks to Obamacare.
Now, they are looking for other things to fund, which will mean the cost of internet and anything else the government subsidizes will increase. That always happens. Government needs to stay the hell away from the private sector.
And they will just raise taxes again and continue to hurt the low and middle class.
I paid over $1,500 less in taxes this past year. Felt good. I just hate that these radical leftists are angry about that and can't wait to get in power so they can start taking more of our money.
They want to give social security, medical, housing, and schooling to illegal aliens as well as their citizen base. It's all about making the little snowflakes feel good and none of them stop to think that they will have their turn being robbed by tyrants. All some can think about is what will be given to them by the Dems. It's sick.
The free phone were initially intended only for really poor people living in rural areas. Now, millions of people, many teens, are walking around the latest expensive phones, all which have internet and every other bell and whistle. And there are no checks and balances. I personally know some people who have more than one phone because they didn't think one had enough minutes. So much for free phones for emergencies only. There have been a lot of articles about people showing how easy it was to get as many phones as you wanted.
Now that they want to pay for internet, the next step is free computers for all the people.
It just never ends. Once Dems realize that they can buy votes, the sky is the limit for spending OUR MONEY.
Meanwhile, a recent report showed that billions were spent by politicians on really important stuff like lobster dinners, golf carts, alcohol, new office furniture, etc. They think nothing of spending a few million here and there. Chump change to these thieves. They are so used to gobbling up money and they could care less how the average tax payers suffer for their reckless spending.
They misuse government agencies to further their agenda. When a bill written, the first thing they do is add a lot of crap they want to the bill.
This is just the latest scheme for government to get further involved in the private sector, where they have no business being.
