The latest crisis?
The city couldn't fund public trans so off to Harrisburg and Rendell responds with more "gimmick" state-wide taxes.

Something tells me Comcast has a stake in this.
Too many ILECs in that article.
How I don't know but Verizon and Comcast absolutely hate each other in S.E. PA and Comcast is soon to be a huge contributor to Philly's tax base.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12644208 Fri, 11 Feb 2005 14:47:46 EDT Re: Another Carly Fiorina. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12643370 Evolution :

Agreed on that.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12643370 Fri, 11 Feb 2005 13:01:14 EDT Re: Another Carly Fiorina. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12643308 eggboard : I'm not a Philly resident, and I completely understand your anger having visited the city a couple of times and been stunned by it in comparison with, say, New York or Detroit or San Francisco, all of which have their own problems, but MY WORD.

But I think what Neff and Philly are trying to do here is to get private/public partnerships going in which the city doesn't put your money at risk and is fostering an increase in business and revenue into the city that would, in turn, make it more likely that other social problems would be solved.

Increasing competition, entrepreneurialism, and equal access to information for all residents (and schools) seems to me to be one tool in an arsenal of making a city more livable.

But I'm not belittling your concerns about snow, school, or stadiums, nor suggesting that cities spend their money in the most sensible of ways or for the most pressing needs.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12643308 Fri, 11 Feb 2005 12:54:36 EDT Re: Another Carly Fiorina. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12643060 jayw : It's quite odd that Philly cannot afford to school my kids but they can afford to build stadiums and a city wide wifi system. Meanwhile my kids suffer, and my street stays full of ice and snow, not to mention a million other things that needs to be done first. The Mayor, the CIO and anyone else involved with pushing Wifi should stick Wifi straight up their asses.
