The banning of Google (NSDQ: GOOG) Voice from the iPhone’s App Store, set off a series of events over the past month—consumers and tech elitists protested; Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt resigned from Apple’s board and the FCC started investing wireless open access and handset exclusivity.

In a WSJ article today, Andy Kessler, a former hedge-fund manager and author of “How We Got Here,” wrote an opinion piece, calling for a national data policy, which he claims could supplement our countries’ outdated communication policy. His four main suggestions are sure to ruffle the feathers of cable and wireless operators, and seem overly optimistic. Here’s his list:

—No more phone exclusives: Any device should work on any network.
—Share the airwaves: Instead of carriers owning spectrum, “let new carriers emerge based on quality of service rather than spectrum owned.”
—End municipal deals for cable operators: People will be able to pay for shows, rather than “overpaying for little-watched networks.”
—Faster home and phone networks: Faster networks are being held back from obsolete voice and video policy.
