        Hopefully with net neutrality, we won’t have an Amtrak situation.

          Would really like to have some high speed rail, damnit. Stupid business butting in the way of that, too.

        My local power company operates as a co-op utility company and ISP that runs gigabit fiber to my curb. <$100/month. Community owned utilities can be amazing when done right.
