| reply to Combat Chuck Re: It's simple folks...
said by Combat Chuck :However, correct me if I'm wrong but, no "muni" I've seen wants to do this they want to run the whole thing end to end. They want control; they want to implement a price point that is lower than the private sector to hell with what the real price (as determined by the market) is; in short, they want another carrot to dangle in front of voters and those who would donate to their campaign. Correction: Tacoma leases their Click! network. |

| Looks like TV is provided by the muni: »www.click-network.com/Business/T···ault.htm
But network services are only provided solely by 3rd parties:
Residential network services are provided by THREE local companies: »www.click-network.com/Business/H···ISPs.htm
Business network services are provided by FIVE local companies: »www.click-network.com/Business/L···Page.htm
I'd guess Tacoma is also serviced by an ILEC (but I'm not sure who) and I'm pretty sure they're also serviced by an investor-owned cable company (I think Comcast). |
