Twitter would be useful if they gave me the firehose in my feed. Having to follow someone is so caveman era stupid. I would even pay for the firehose then let my friends spam me with their 'ads'.

You're gonna have to elaborate -- usually Twitter's "firehose" means the entire unfiltered stream of all Tweets, which would be beyond useless as a normal user for obvious reasons.
You'll have to explain what you mean by firehose.
It's not even possible for a consumer connection to handle the firehose.
