Oh he did- he leaned his full weight toward creating today’s reality for the last 55 years of his life.

They have physical locations and extant real estate across the entire US.

So, rather than continuing to give billions to private ISPs that do literally nothing with that money, and who double-down to curtail services whenever mildly inconvenient, my suggestion is that we (ie US Government) does not provide a single additional dollar in funding or subsidies, and instead invests that money in building itself a USG internet UTILITY. If necessary, clawback the billions that have gone to Comcast, ATT, Verizon et al, or just seize their networks and charge their executives with RICO and fraud. They essentially operate as a cartel anyway.

I actually meant both. To use USPS for basic banking, AND have them offer internet from the same locations.

The US Government needs to stop dicking around with this neoliberal bullshit and just offer mobile and home Internet AS A UTILITY.

Use the existing USPS infrastructure and cut out all the bullshit ISPs and parasitical orgs that have been bloating themselves on taxpayers for decades, with zero improvements to users.

Bring back basic banking at USPS too.

People are also desperately lonely and isolated. They hang out in coffee shops just to have other living humans around them- even if they’re not actively interacting.

We are all alone, together.

I wish our government actually regulated these corporations so they are not able to have a tentacle in so many essential technologies.

All of the symptoms of the crushing power of techbro oligarchs are directly tied to failures of govt to regulate.
