I have not had a chance to parse the FCC's National broadband Plan yet. But many people have including this decent review by BBR: What You Need To Know About The National Broadband Plan.
It will likely be ineffective because no one is mad about it. If people have apathy about your plan, then it won't work. It has to be polarizing. This new FCC under Julius is disappointing me. Take a freaking stand already!

Republican congressional hopeful Ron DeSantis won the support of prominent national conservative leader Phyllis Schlafly and the Eagle Forum PAC on Monday.
"Ron DeSantis is a Reagan conservative who will stand for limited government principles and traditional values," Schlafly said in a statement on Monday. "We must send authentic conservatives like Ron to Congress, not 'go along to get along' politicians who place expediency over principle. We cannot afford to elect anymore RINOs. Ron DeSantis represents a new generation of conservative leadership--he is pro-life, strong on marriage issues and is committed to bold reforms. He will be a leader in Congress and will be an articulate defender of the Constitution."
DeSantis said. "I am committed to reversing the Obama agenda and reasserting American sovereignty, limited government principles and religious freedom. I will be guided by the core values that have made America great." Source: Press release on 2012 House campaign website voteRon2012.com , Jun 18, 2012
Governor Mark Dayton and Lt. Governor Tina Smith today unveiled their 2017 Tax Bill, which would provide $300 million in tax cuts for more than 450,000 Minnesotans and in aid payments to local governments for essential services, while protecting the state's long-term fiscal health. The Dayton-Smith Tax Bill also would reduce taxes for Minnesota farmers and landowners to help build an economy that works for everyone, everywhere in Minnesota. And their proposal would eliminate tax loopholes for corporations--leveling the playing field for businesses.
"Minnesota's farm communities are the backbone of Minnesota's economy. The last several years have been challenging for many Minnesota farmers, who are facing low commodity prices and rising property taxes," said Lt. Governor Tina Smith. "Our tax bill would provide significant relief to farmers by buying down the cost of local school district levies. I urge the Legislature to provide this needed tax relief for Minnesota farm families." Source: 2017-8 Minnesota special election website mn.gov/governor , Jan 5, 2017
