They are not serving the bigger constituency. They are serving the smaller good of those getting service from them.

A donation is only for those who reap the benefit.

In the long run it will be less beneficial to everyone. Not just the minority and disabled groups.
Right- Loosening restrictions that inhibit competition for television service is such a blight on society

We're not talking about taxpayer subsidies or other goverment handouts- this is simply about allowing a company to serve customers under a universal standard instead of having to negotiate (often unresonable) terms with every city government in the state.

If it's between letting a provider profitably offer service to 80% of city residents or 0% of residents because of heavy-handed regulation that makes investment too risky, I'll take the former. It's just television for cryin out loud.
