Re: tax

Perhaps some of the munis want to set up free access (which may or may not be a good idea, IDK but it's not the point I'm trying to make), but most of the interest in muni-built access I've read about is for setting up broadband of some kind where the CLEC's and cable co's have simply avoided wiring up or are raping the residents. After setting that up, the users still pay for the service, just as if a CLEC or cable co. were selling the service, but the CLEC's/cc are just too comfortable denying broadband to certain communities, and blocking the ability to set up their own BB is just wrong IMO.
