The Stimulus Package

Thanks once again to the ever brilliant Brian Wang, it looks like we get $2.825B for whatever bullshit the U.S. calls broadband, $1B of which is earmarked for whatever wireless; if I read the actual bill correctly. The essentially meaningless word “broadband” found 43 times. The word “symmetric” found 0 times. FAIL. Not that we expected more, really.
