In 2009, president Barack Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. This act is giving money to spread over all of the government agencies in an attempt to jump start the economy and create more jobs for the general American consensus. Each government agency has a role in the new act in order to make the economy function better. The FCC's plan was to create a national broadband network by 2010. This would give people more jobs in the creation of the network and give everyone access to faster internet and other methods of communication. I like the plan and think it is good for America. America is a constant society on the go anymore and people need information instantly. If a great broadband network is set up so that everyone can get access to fast internet, more things can be accomplished, not to mention, jobs will be created in order to maintain the network, which is always a good thing. In terms of radio, the faster information can be pumped in to news, the quicker it can be relayed to the masses on the way to work. I think it will only have a positive effect.
