21% of adults do not use the internet: Many do not believe the material they could find online is very relevant to their lives and most do not view the promotion of home broadband access as a high government priority.
OR "21% of people don't know what they don't know"
The vast majority of those against the government pushing broadband, don't actually use the internet, and many admit that they probably couldn't. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not sure this should be a government priority right now but I'm not foolish enough to think Internet access isn't important.
I think about how I price shop - ultimately saving thousands of dollars a year, or how I do medical searches, reducing the number of doctor visits, or take my classes online saving the time and trouble of driving, or looking at the latest BS that the two sides of the isle are feeding me to get my vote and finding the truth somewhere in the middle.
To that 21% I say, don't judge something you don't use. Instead, look at the data of the overall impact of the technology and make a judgment from that.
