is as good

2019-11-15 17:55:21 UTC  

because i'm not sure that it's fair to compare

2019-11-15 17:55:24 UTC  

It's just got wait times

2019-11-15 17:55:40 UTC  

yes, which is why it's a false dichotomy

2019-11-15 17:55:45 UTC  

Im not sure

2019-11-15 17:55:46 UTC  

because it's stupid to even try to compare

2019-11-15 17:55:48 UTC  

you know what the word means

2019-11-15 17:55:49 UTC  

i think anyway

2019-11-15 17:55:55 UTC  

false dichotomy?

2019-11-15 17:55:58 UTC  

Yea

2019-11-15 17:56:08 UTC  

Because you can compare healthcare systems

2019-11-15 17:56:18 UTC  

because that's what the world does, it compares their systems

2019-11-15 17:56:30 UTC  

there are many consistent metrics that you can compare across

2019-11-15 17:56:36 UTC  

price, qualified personnel

2019-11-15 17:56:36 UTC  

ok pep

2019-11-15 17:56:37 UTC  

wait times

2019-11-15 17:56:42 UTC  

it's easily comparable

2019-11-15 17:56:45 UTC  

ok pep

I was reading into the broadband stuff

2019-11-15 17:58:28 UTC  

I think you have a point actually

2019-11-15 17:58:45 UTC  

Most of the infrastructure appears to have been built and subsidised by the tax payers

2019-11-15 17:58:56 UTC  

So it's not like, a successful private enterprise

2019-11-15 17:59:04 UTC  

We've paid for it, and now we're paying extra to rent it out

2019-11-15 18:07:56 UTC  

In 82, 50.2% of the company was sold off, in 91 the government sold off half of its remaining holdings, then 93 sold the remaining off

2019-11-15 18:09:12 UTC  

Pretty much @PureEvilPie

2019-11-15 18:18:56 UTC  

Governments can't be trusted with being the monopoly internet provider

2019-11-15 18:19:04 UTC  

Especially communist ones

2019-11-15 18:20:16 UTC  

Why are the Limp Dems looking to burn 100bn on pointless shit to save the environment while their other ridiculous policies are actively crucifying the environment?

2019-11-15 18:20:56 UTC  

But for some reason under private ownership our telecoms has fallen to some of the worst in Europe @Eccles

2019-11-15 18:21:02 UTC  

Big think!

2019-11-15 18:21:15 UTC  

It's because of poor strategic decisions made in the early 90s

2019-11-15 18:21:23 UTC  

Which ones?

2019-11-15 18:21:40 UTC  

The decision to roll out broadband over copper rather than install fibre right at the inception

2019-11-15 18:21:42 UTC  

so you're for marxist internet that can be controlled and censored at the whim of a few powerful retards

2019-11-15 18:21:50 UTC  

xd

2019-11-15 18:22:01 UTC  

You cannot bridge that trust gap, Nathan

2019-11-15 18:22:04 UTC  

o wait youre a remainer nathan

2019-11-15 18:22:06 UTC

2019-11-15 18:22:06 UTC
