Propaganda -- nothing more. All corporate decisions are made with great interest in user/customer population and prospects within that population. They're not dumb. If they believe cell phone coverage/performance is a hit-n-miss proposition and it doesn't matter if anyone signs up with any carrier - they'll all be disappointed (maybe not all, but the majority). Basically, the majority will switch eventually and the best propaganda will lure them. Verizon Wireless is very good at propaganda (synonymous with advertising).
Whatever corporate America does, it cannot succeed if the Congress doesn't open certain doors. It doesn't matter what Comcast says or does... it's which doors stay closed in Congress. Some argue there should be canvassing of all affected citizens/residents in this country... good idea! It could all be tweeted, twitted and facebooked .... easy!
Then comes the 'nay-sayers' attacking the unvalidated numbers who tweeted NO vs those on the fence.. One can be sure that those kinds of numbers (hundreds of thousands or even millions) will be dismissed by Congress as 'unofficial', yet, their bosses (CITIZENS - public) ARE/is talking.... Congress doesn't care to listen or even think OF IT.
I SUGGEST the public start a "Congress Be Aware" web page highlighting those issues/concerns Congress hasn't bothered to do anything about but make statements -- nothing else gets done -- they're too busy on the campaign trail or congressional days off and/or their holiday trend setting.
We put these jackasses there and WE need to find the way to put NEW jackasses there who remember who they are there for! Congress thinks it's untouchable -- and it IS.. Talk about Security! You want to get some public service employee's attention?, No phone no, no twitter, no email address usage by the GOV, send letter requesting audience.. takes weeks... UPI controlled questions (otherwise no response from the congressman or senator).
Capitalism will eventually become lost and die and be replaced with something better suited to administering to smaller worlds. It would be, should be a better place NOW!... for EVERYBODY!... nah, wishful thinking. Power is money - the U.S. has it (top $. 2%) 1st rule is NO SHARING (unless it's profitable). These folks could fix all our roads and bridges and electrical powergrids, renewable energy(solar, wind, geo-thermal, etc.) and they would feel any lighter in the pocket because the subsidies would be coming right back to their bankers, not counting graft/fraud and embezzling along the way. You and I would not see much of those infrastructure improvements unless we traveled over ground like Semi-truck drivers.
Amnazingly, nothing's been solved since Nixon - talk about opening the door to 'cheap' labor! This was WAY before NAFTA (Clinton), and all in favor say 'AYE'! American labor wasn't consulted.. far too few votes and political suicide if revealed to the public.= job loss. snowball - sleezy home mortgages perpetrated on Americans & others (Clinton). Bush - defecate... oops deficit! - Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Egypt, 9/11.... long incompetent road! Obama - Flubber - inconsistency - TALK/no action, no energy policy, no foreign policy, no fema policy, DHS- JOKE! Evolving weather patterns - no talk regarding new/updating weather models?! People will die or be injured every year because DHS is a joke! DHS doesn't have 'weather patterns' as having anything to do with 'HOMELAND' security!
Nuff said for now... maybe more later.
