Comment Rural Electrification Act (Score 1) 279

Why not follow the same procedure that was already done in 1936? The Rural Electrification Act gave federal loans to the electric companies with the sole purpose of delivering electricity to all rural areas.
The act created the Rural Utilities Service that also oversaw telephone. Perhaps adding data access to their purview...

Comment Non-compete details... (Score 3, Informative) 395

Being a doc, I have signed and deal with non competes all the time.

To have a valid non-compete clause, you must satisfy 2 legal requirements:
1. Duration of time the non-compete lasts
2. Location

Both of these requirements must also be considered "fair" and not run against restriction of trade. So, a non compete could not exclude someone from working in their field for 10 years at a radius of 1000 miles from the previous place of employment. Usual non-competes last 1-2 years and the mileage varies depending on the industry/location/etc.
