| Re: The Dalles? said by RadioDoc  :And people willing to work for nothing, and local governments willing to give them tax breaks to employ people at minimum wage. Fiber is just the cover story... The jobs pay in the range of $60,000, some more, some less. That hardly seems like "nothing".
There is also the benefit to the local ecomony, through rents and home purchases, local shopping, etc.
Besides, it is a nice rural area...clean, quiet, unhurried. The only thing "fast" will be the fiber.

It's nice to see Oregon has a minimum wage that is socking it to the taxpayers so those poor minimum wage slaves get $60k a year.  I guess I had better float down the river and suck up some of that tax break welfare that evil small community is dishing out.
