This reminds me of the German self-made disaster of the UMTS licensing, the government has done. They were grossly over stated in price and the infrastructure was totally lacking any sense (means it didn't exist). Slowly, the market here is feedbacking and UMTS production increases, but it had been a couple of years before enterprises and the market set things right....

For those of you who would like to read in the formatting intended by the author, you can go to the Cato Institute's publications section, and then scroll down to Cato Handbook for Congress: Policy Recommendations for the 108th Congress, and then a little further to 41. Telecommunications and Broadband Policy (15 pp, 154 kb).

I imagine regular TV would be much more like satellite TV if the government would keep its hands off the trading of EMF usage rights. Of course, it wouldn't have the 2-3 second minimum delay that satellite communication requires (damn maximum speed of light).
