Grande Communications Intros PowerBoost - But calls their version of Comcast's technology 'Bolt'


User uid://1440579 writes in to note that Grande Communications, the San Antonio based overbuilder who might be shopping itself around, has updated their website to reflect the new "G-Force Cheetah with Bolt" plan they're now offering. The $50 uncapped tier will Streamyx Business Package 12Mbps customers with bursts up to 24 Mbps, though the PowerBoost-enabled tier will burst as high as the network can stand (sometimes beyond 30 Mbps) if it's able. Comcast's popular Powerboost technology, which increases speeds for the first few moments (in Grande's case they say ten seconds) of a transfer has been licensed to Cox Communications, Time Warner Cable, Shaw, and other operators.

Imagine a world without taxes... Sounds nice, ha? Well, some people do not just dream, they make this dream come true. Is what they're doing legal? not so much. Can you do the same? Sure you can. However, strong word of advice: do not try it at home.

So, how does it really work? How do you stand up to the Internal Revenue Service and just do not pay taxes?

Actually it does not work, and if you do that you may be in trouble. But for some people this cat and mouse game with the IRS Streamyx not so problematic, so they made up a list of reasons (excuses) for not paying taxes to the government. The IRS calls this list "Frivolous Tax Arguments".

And here they are, the most outrages reasons for not paying taxes. Now remember, there are real people who instead of filing their tax return, send a letter to the Internal Revenue Service saying that they are not willing to pay any taxes Send Text Message To Phone of the following reasons:

The filing of a tax return is voluntary - no it's not, filing is mandatory, by law.

Taxpayer is not a citizen of the United States, thus not subject to the federal income tax laws - taxpayer can be a citizen, resident or non-resident and as such subject to tax.

The United States consists only of the District of Columbia, federal territories, and federal enclaves - The US consists of DC, 50 state and other territories.

Taxpayer is not a person as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, thus is not subject to the federal income tax laws - taxpayer is either a person or a legal entity and as such subject to tax.

Taxpayers can refuse to pay income taxes on religious grounds by invoking the First Amendment - No, the tax code is a federal law, and religious is not a ground for non-payment.

Federal income taxes constitute a taking of property without due process of law, violating the Fifth Amendment - TITLE 26--INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, imposes the federal tax, thus representing a due process.

Taxpayers do not have to file returns or provide financial information because of the protection against self-incrimination found in the Fifth Amendment - Wrong, filing a tax return is mandatory and Fifth Amendment is not a legitimate ground for not filing.

And the list goes on and on and on. Think it's funny? Think it's not real? Just go to the IRS website and read what the IRS thinks about those excuses and the people who make them up.

Conclusion

So, while we keep paying those nerve racking taxes and dream of a taxless world, other people join the tax resistance and use an almost believable reasons for not paying them taxes.

Keep dreaming.

The demands for speed are real. Companies have deadlines to meet, quotas to fill. The people are moving to slow because their Internet connection is slowing them down. The solution is High Speed Connectivity. The problem is the high cost of Streamyx dedicated connection like a T1 or a DS3. I won't even get into the pricing of OC3's, OC12's, OC48's and OC192's, those are for the speed and data addicts. Not to worry though, a solution does exist, but not everyone has access.

The beautiful thing about this solution is that it does not require a local loop. For those of you who are not familiar with what a local loop is, here is a brief definition. A local loop is a connection that connects the customer from the ISP, otherwise known as the Internet Service Provider, right into the demarcation point in the Streamyx facility. The local loop also has a hefty recurring fee that's associated with it that is usually have the cost of the data circuit. For those of you who are fortunate enough, Metro Ethernet is your answer.

Ethernet Metro usually resides in the metropolitan areas where Internet Service Providers have built our their fiber network. The nice thing about this technology is that you can bypass the Local Exchange Carrier, or LEC for short which is the acronym for Local Exchange Carrier and plug right into the Internet network of the ISP. Ethernet usually comes in 3 flavors of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps.

Now the next question you are probably asking yourself is how would one find out if Ethernet is Streamyx Combo in their neck of the woods. Lucky for you an Ethernet locator tool exists. Check it out by clicking here -> Locate Ethernet Providers.
