Re: If you can't drop your own rates....

Agreed -
Dish and DirecTv pay $$$ to have their satellites, and I imagine that they also pay $$$ to use a certain amount of spectrum. Other than that, there are NO local resources used that could be taxed. Cable, power lines, gas lines, phone lines, water lines, and cell phones require land within a city, and are typically on public land (or under the streets). None of this is required for satellite.
