Why is European broadband faster and cheaper than US?

One word: government.
By that do you mean a lot of government regulations working well to benefit the people instead of letting big businesses Cleavland-steamer every one of us into financial ruin???
If so, I agree. Government.
It's true. The Government opened up the market, which is why we now enjoy fast and cheap broadband (I pay $20/month for 50mbit plus phone).

Find me a woman
Gee I wasn't seriously suggesting you're sexist, calm down. No need for silly name calling. Besides, I don't even know what that means. Not every non-english language is automatically spanish.

He also assumes that everybody involved in the discussion is male. That's so chauvinistic and sexist.

I'm all for second chances. Speaking of which, any chance we also repeal burds other ban of the week?

Maybe it's just me, maybe it's the cast, but The Rock kinda stands out as a more solid movie compared to the rest.

We white people[...]
Racial generalizations like that are really out of place here! I don't know who the white burdturgler is around here, but I'm sure he is highly offended!
Jokes aside, I don't think bk should be banned for his comment. He didn't judge black people in it, nor did he say it is right to call them by a racial slur. I'm not saying that his statement wasn't motivated by racism, but if you ban him for that statement you'd have to ban every guy who comments "I'd do her" on a video featuring a female, because that would be as sexist as bks statement was racist (IMHO).
In the end I'd rather see bad and semi-offensive comments on this site and see them downvoted than don't see them at all. IMO that would be much more of a characteristic of a great community than outright banning people for voicing their opinion, no matter how flawed their views might be.

So is this what people call "white guilt"?
