Don't tax cuts automatically create free DSL?

Nope, just want my internet for free, or for cheaper than the 30 bucks I am already paying now.

I don't buy into politics, but saving some dough here and there on services, sure do.

I don't pay taxes, the amount I make has been declared insufficient enough not to tax.

Only a Democrat would try to argue that getting a tax cut is some kind of a gift.

Gee, what nice guys, they're letting me keep some of my own money...

Wifi is different than dsl, with wifi, you got wireless internet and networking capabilities, DSL is not wireless, not the kind I have. I believe.

And servant was "out of forum" for the crack. It got answered.

She's right. Take your magic unfunded tax cut to the politics section.

I hope the mods cut all three posts.

Apples and oranges.

I have DSL. And I have wireless access to it. But two separate things.

Some municipalities have free wireless, though. And my house has free wireless if I choose to access it, on account of none of my neighbors have secure wireless networks. If she's got a good wireless receiver, she might be able to pirate somebody's signal. Not recommending it; just saying it might be technically feasible.

It's broadband and it's free, which I think was the point.

The downside is, you have to do all your perving in Coffee shops.
