Those of us that can't afford any extra charges for our timed local
data calls - (and I am talking about residential here - AND despite
what Senator Alston has to say, WE ARE BEING CHARGED FOR THEM)
are hardly going to be able to afford new modems either.

Government penalises poor people! Can't afford charges, Can't afford
new modems - drop off!   (the net, that is)

Reminds me of Keating's uncaring, smug and totally useless ramark of
Get A Job.
yeah - send out all the disabled, dying etc etc and let'm WORK for the
extra money they need to stay connected.

send out the unemployed (oops - they are already thinking of that,
aren't they? )

I would like to see a list of all who will be exempt from these
charges, or who will get "reduced" charges - if anyone exists.

And, if I am wrong in thinking that Senator Alston has gotten what he
wanted via a backdoor, and not the front door, then please enlighten
me.
