Under funded and unsupported programs or services is not an indication of an idea not working ... it's a symptom that it isn't appreciated or supported.

If an idea is to be given a chance to succeed, it has to be properly supported and given enough resources to achieve full potential.

Social Media is big business and it has the power to make it break other big businesses and even governments.

It's like giving the keys to democratic institutions to private companies .... and once that happens, what do you think they'll do with that.

No one wants any third party, or government institution have any control over social media because it will affect who makes money. This is the main reason why no one would want to support the idea.
