Are these are the same 'highways" that the Dems in Florida, are trying to put tolls on?

And stop confusing the great acts of POTUS' in the past with this clown in the WH.

Not all government project are 'revenue rich,' and not all governments (like Obama's) have the same altruistic approach to making things better for all Americans without tapping into more 'revenue'.

The days of making things for all of us to enjoy and taking nothing in return are long gone - it's not the way Obama and his tax and spend Leftists operate.

The Leftists love to spend money that they don't have, and they need more money (tax revenue) to keep up their spending habits. This 'new idea' is nothing more than a Trojan horse of taxes for all of us to be forced to pay.

Insanity - look it up.

So your previous rant about the government was only the government under President Obama. Please make that more clear in future posts.

Now this:

Quote:
A cellphone company whose top executive has close ties to President Obama lobbied for and won a piece of a major new government push to provide Internet service to low-income job-seekers, even though critics say the company’s smartphones are poorly suited to the task of helping those in the program find work.

The program’s supporters tout it as a way for the unemployed to learn technical skills, to prepare resumes and to search for jobs, but one of the 14 pilot contracts that the FCC awarded went to Miami-based TracFone Wireless Inc.

TracFone CEO F.J. Pollak has been a frequent White House visitor and his wife Abigail has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for both Mr. Obama’s 2008 and 2012 campaigns.

And although TracFone had originally lobbied for the program, critics say its contract would not provide recipients with skills-boosting computers and services, but would supply high-end Android phones, ready to play games and browse Facebook but doing little in the way of getting a job.
Nice.

Now, I expect ALL of you who bitched about the Cheney/Halliburtun ties to speak out agains this one too...

I won't hold my breath.

Just read it carefully!

And, you should try and remember who the current POTUS is on your own, that way I wont have to remind you every time I post.

Eisenhower, a Pub POTUS, was responsible for our nation's highway system. Obama has nothing to show for the trillions he's raped America for..... Of course it's about Obama - and his complete and utter failure as a POTUS.

I'm glad that we agree on the high value of big government programs like the interstate highway system, Rural Electrification, Oak Ridge, Hoover Dam, myriad local and state government utility creations, and UF, even if we disagree on our present Commissar..., I mean president. Here's to a new Socialist Future, comrade!

The interstate highway system wasn't built for the "people". That was a side effect. Anyone with rudimentary post-WWII history knowledge should know this.

You are wrong. While defense was one reason for the construction - as part of a national highway system begun early in the century - it was not the only, or main reason. Eisenhower liked it for that reason, but not for it alone. In any case, who cares?

You beat me to it... Just this week, a story about how the local government(?) wants to make I-4 a toll road through the middle of Orlando.

I remember when they built the East-West Expressway. It was sold as a toll road, but for only 12 years until it was paid for. Then the tolls would be removed, and it would become a free highway...

That was, what? 40 years ago?

the bill to add tolls to the interstate around Jax was sponsored by a Republican, passed by a Republican-controlled legislature and signed by a Republican governor.

Do people ever read the articles they comment on? The government is looking to make certain spectrums of the airwaves free so anyone can use it. The government isn't building or maintaining anything. Its just not selling the airwaves so anyone can go out and put out a free wireless service on these frequencies (and I assume that they will forbid people from charging others to use these airwaves for wireless communications).

Given the actual facts of this issue. Your argument about surveillance should be directed at private companies and entities as they will be the ones maintaining the network. In other words, who is going to keep these companies from tracking information used over their "free" network? Or do you not see it as an issue if information tracking is done by private enterprise.

Government built the super highway system for us, and we got places much faster. Not that big a deal to do the same things to move us into the century we live in and make data faster.

Unless there is some nefarious plan for data mining.
