Re: free internet. Another thing tho, how are people going to pay for the electricity to run it? Or have the money to actually BUY a computer or phone when they are living in poverty & can’t even afford enough food? & then cell towers, there’d have to be a heckuva lot more. I’m eco so I don’t want all that radiation & EMF’s. I’m already one of those who are sensitive to just smart meters. I wish people would focus on the real issues. What's so good about having the internet when they are too weak from lack of real food & sick from unclean water?

This might make me unpopular with some, but there needs to be accountability. I mean, there are too many government programs and also the stimulus stuff. Well, maybe this isn't good for some people - because they start feeling entitled. What about when life gets rough and they lose the entitlements? How will they survive?

jasonn, Very much agree! I'm for being self-sufficient. Having help is one thing. Not doing it on your own or expecting freebies is another. These stimulus checks are going to bite us in the butt later. Nothing is free.

Some people simply milk and abuse the system for all it's worth!

ZandraJoi, jasonn, Emerald, Agree with all of your comments! 'Free Internet'...hmm...not really free. Someone pays for it eventually & that is you & me. I'm all for helping, but this is just another thing that smacks of 'entitlement'...there's already enough of that going on.

Yeah. There’s no real easy answer. Having the internet seems to become a necessity.

I don't want something for free and I want to get something with my own effort. By giving stuff to everyone, we are making them feel like, they can get anything and they don't have to work hard for it, which is not fair in anyway.
So, the same goes to internet connection as well. As long as it's affordable,I don't mind if I have to pay for it.

Up here there are so many people sitting on their lazy asses living off of stimulus checks that many places can't find enough workers to fill positions. It is really hurting business and workers who are still working are getting burnt out, due to having to work overtime and double shifts.
