Look at all the 🇺🇸 trade that's now happening without the Jones Act in effect.
And the Jones Act fleet is still fully booked. This is all extra shipping, from Americans to Americans, that's happening just because government got out of the way.

Imagine a humble Scottish farmer named Fleming toiling away on his farm, when suddenly, piercing screams shatter the tranquility. Without a second thought, he abandons his tools and races towards the distress. What he finds is a child struggling in the swamp, trapped and drowning. With no hesitation, Fleming risks his own life, using a long branch to pull the child to safety.
The very next day, a luxurious car pulls up to Fleming's modest home. Out steps a distinguished gentleman—Randolph Churchill, the father of the boy Fleming saved. Churchill offers to repay the farmer's bravery with riches, but Fleming refuses, saying, "Saving someone is my duty; humanity has no price."
Just then, Fleming's own son appears at the door. Churchill, intrigued, asks, "Is this your son?" When Fleming proudly confirms, Churchill proposes an intriguing deal: if Fleming won't accept his money, he'll fund the boy’s education at the finest schools, ensuring he gets the same opportunities as Churchill's own child.
Fleming, realizing the chance to give his son a future he could never afford, gratefully accepts. His son goes on to attend St Mary's Medical School in London and becomes Sir Alexander Fleming, the inventor of penicillin.
But here’s where the story comes full circle: years later, it is penicillin that saves the life of Winston Churchill, Randolph’s son, who would become the Prime Minister of Britain twice.
Isn’t it fascinating how a single act of kindness can ripple through history, connecting lives in such unexpected ways?

How did we get to the point that a bureaucratic turf war between the FCC and the FAA positions us to choose between 5G or air travel?
Appears due to poor adjacent channel interference designs on radio altimeters. But why wasn’t this solved years ago?

Europe “solved this” by capping the highest C-band frequency at 3.8GHz. To me, that’s just 200MHz additional wasted spectrum.

"We are frustrated by the FAA's inability to do what nearly 40 countries have done, which is to safely deploy 5G technology without disrupting aviation services, and we urge it do so in a timely manner,” said an AT&T spokesman.
We all should be.

In my EP column “Could local fees kill 5G?”, I examine the impact of various 5G fees onto the consumer, depending on housing density. My conclusion: Urban fees are probably OK, but suburban fees could slow deployments. Warning: Math involved.

My latest EDN column is “5G poised to disrupt the network edge.” Here I discuss why low latency services demand new ISP topologies. All you need to examine this is 1) the current topology, and 2) the speed of light in glass.
