Get Ready to Subsidize Comcast’s ObamaCable
Get Ready to Subsidize Comcast’s ObamaCable
Obama backer Comcast, a terrible company with a record of hideous customer service, keeps trying to merge with Time Warner Cable to create a hideous monstrosity that will ram up prices, monopolize the market and cut service by rationing internet access and selling privileged spots for companies that pay up.
Liberals are pretending to oppose the merger, but what they’re really doing is bargaining for concessions. Concessions whose cost will be passed down to you.

A group of New York politicians is lobbying Comcast to provide free broadband to all city public housing residents and expand other low-cost Internet offerings as a condition for the cable operator’s proposed $45 billion merger with Time Warner Cable.
“With every second we wait, the digital divide is widening,” Mr. Kallos said. “What we have with the Internet is literally a portal to the world’s knowledge. One third of our city can’t get on the Internet and can’t learn whatever, whenever they want.”
Actually they can. The New York Public Library and a host of other city and state funded locations have free internet and will even provide patrons with a laptop so they can browse Facebook, play games and laugh at HipHopStar videos of people beating each other up.
And you know, the rest of the world’s knowledge. And whatever.
The politicians outlined the conditions in a letter they planned to send on Wednesday to the New York Public Service Commission, one of the state and local authorities across the nation reviewing the deal. The commission, which is considering whether the deal is in the public interest, has the power to reject the transaction in the state and is scheduled to vote on the matter next month. The commission has said that it is considering several issues including the affordability of broadband, service quality and infrastructure investment.
There’s a long list of other demands which will probably end with money changing hands.
The troubling thing here is that this could end with a working family paying a hundred bucks for broadband while subsidizing free broadband for Obama voters. This is why the left really loves crony capitalism. Create a monopoly and you can squeeze all kinds of concessions out of it at the expense of a captive audience. This is also why the Comcast-Time Warner cable merger is a terrible idea.

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
