Musk's Starlink hooked rural customers. Then came the price increases.

1. This isn't isolated to Eloon. Company's have been gouging for a long time now. It's why utilities are regulated

The Biden administration was moving towards something akin towards regulating Internet service providers because internet access is increasingly, if not already there, a necessary "utility" in my eyes. Especially after the internet backbone "lines" across the country got a substantial investment from our tax dollars and Biden. This included Starlink who received tax breaks for offering internet at "affordable" prices to rural customers had little or no access. This is the kind of shit Republicans quietly do. This is the kind of shit we need to work into the affordability message because it seems we never call them out on it. People just don't see it as a republican issue. We have to do a better job, consistently and together, at getting through these peoples heads that republicans will always pick your pocket when you're not looking, IMHO.
