Free Wireless High Speed Internet Access.

Like access to the public street in front of one’s home is free, access to the information highway should also be free. All residents in the land of the free should have free access to Basic WiFi Network Services, and this access should be based upon the Freeway Model not the Toll Road Model.

Merely providing low-cost access to the Internet’s Information Highway doesn’t go far enough. Providing low-cost access equates to converting all public streets into low-cost Toll-Roads. This is unthinkable. Ours is the Land of the Freeway and should also be the Land of Free Wi-Fi Access to the Information Highway.

Here in Poliakonia we think access to public broadband is so important that it should be treated like a public road not a public utility. We believe the Public Utility Model is the wrong model to apply to Public Wi-Fi.

Each and every time I access the street at the foot of my driveway it is “free” because it is paid for by all citizens through general, cross-societal tax revenues. This is the Freeway Model. In a like manner, each and every time I access the Information Highway it should also be a“Freeway.”

The analogous network model for Public Wi-Fi is clearly the network infrastructure model of free public roads, streets, highways and byways that interconnect of villages, towns and cities. This network of public streets and roads is maintained by county, state and federal governments so citizens can travel from Point A to Point B in their daily pursuit of life, liberty and happiness without paying a toll each time they leave their driveway or place of business.

Free Wi-Fi County Information Byway

Access to the Wi-Fi Network is just like accessing public highways and byways. It is about local governments promoting and supporting the general e-welfare by implementing a public network infrastructure of FREE Wi-Fi Access to the Information Highway.

Ours is the Land of the Freeway and should also be the Land of Free Wi-Fi Access to the Information Highway. Making citizens pay a Public Road Network Access Fee Toll as they exit their driveways to access the public street in front of their homes is unthinkable. Imagine having to pay a toll to access the PCH, A1A, U.S. 101, the network of Interstate Highways or Apple Blossom Lane. Likewise, accessing the Internet Information Highway should be Toll-Free.

The Associazione Nazionale Piccoli Comuni d'Italia has demonstrated that even geographically separated small towns and isolated villages without the deep tax pockets of large municipalities, like San Francisco and Philadelphia, can think-out-of-the-box and e-network together to offer Wi-Fi access to residents of Associazione member communities.

Free access and connectivity to the Wi-Fi Web in Your Town, USA is an issue of the purpose of government. As enumerated in the U.S. Constitution, the government should “promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.” Here in the 3rd Millennium, these constitutional guarantees apply to promoting the general e-welfare and e-securing the blessings of e-liberty to each and every Freewebizen.

They equate to an individual citizen’s freedom to walk down the public streets in their neighborhood without having to pay a toll or a fee each time they go out their front door. The NETWORK of city, town and village streets and roads LINK us to the geographic NODES of our friends, families and business associates are part of the government provided common NODAL NETWORK infrastructure established and maintained by the government. They help assure each citizen has the liberty to freely travel down the public highways and byways that LINK their HOME NODE to the NODES of friends, relatives and businesses.

Fat Cat Telco/Cable/ISP Executive

“Fat Cat” Teleco, Cable Company and ISP executives complain that they can't make any money with Free Wi-Fi. You know, as I do, that with FREE Public Wi-Fi Access they shall continue making money just as companies who build Freeways do. It's all about local and state governments promoting and supporting the general e-welfare by implementing a public infrastructure of FREE Wi-Fi Access.

It has been reported that the United States has fallen to 16th among the top countries with broadband. Fill in the blank: If Your Town, USA is going to be competitive then it needs to provide its citizens with globally competitive, world class e-thoroughfares.

The Home of the Brave should also be The Land Of Free Wi-Fi Access.
