Rewire the US communications system

Use stimulus money to rewire the US for 'the Grid' (the new internet created by CERN) to upgrade our communication and commerce network and, again, create jobs. It is over 10,000 times faster than the web and eliminates many of the limitations of e-commerce today. Low-overhead, grassroots commerce is a bright future for business and consumers.

    I agree with the intent, but there is much more to this issue. This would not happen overnight and would not be cheap. To proceed, a focused plan of attack is necessary. Otherwise allot of money would be spend with nothing to show in the end.

    Should we pay for it to benefit Verizon, Apple or Microsoft. Why not just give the low interest loans for this purpose and let market forces dictate the details. Except for equal access to any on equal basis to their own services without obstacles for users with more advanced technology.

    But, can we really trust any one company would service a competitor that is about to put them out of business?

    All users could form one company that would receive the Federal funds to build them to meet the needs of all its stakeholders.
