Question by Michael Andrews: could we work with wireless technology like this?
okay see i was thinking and this idea came to me. so dont laugh at it or if you think its possible or not please give reason okay? thnks 
i was thinking that maybe we could make very high towers which have a super powerful wireless connection that could cover the whole city(one for different cities) and everyone will be able to use it and pay through it through tax?
is this a possible idea?

Not only possible, but it has been put into practical appliation in some locations already:

The hardware is a bit different than what you imagined, but the general idea is similar. The reason you couldn't do a single "very high tower [with a] super powerful wireless connecion" is because a wireless connection is just another form of radio signal. A single tower pumping out enough WiFi signal to blanket a city would interfere with other radio sources. That's why city-wide WiFi will be implemented much like cellular service: multiple lower-power towers strategically placed around the city.
So your idea is not as far-fetched as it may seem. The general idea of what you present is already reality in some locations!

The third hand,
I am of the senior citizen class of 1938. I have had many tools in my lifetime with a keen eye always on the lookout for something new and useful.
Well I found one that covers both criteria and even though I have owned it for about 3 months it has been well used.
Anyone that does any amount of household maintence will be delighted with the Black & Decker SmartDriver with the Magnetic Screw Holder. It makes every job much easier and that is why I titled the review “The third hand.”

One big drawback,
This would have been be the last cordless screwdriver I would ever buy if it wasn’t for one tiny detail; battery life is horrible. I was very disappointed when I ran out of battery after drilling 8 (eight) 1.5″ screws into drywall. Excellent torque on the first four screws though. If you can afford it, I recommend you buy 2 and use them for very light projects since the battery can not be replaced on these. Otherwise, save your money and buy a real cordless drill!
