You know something the city of Lafayette could make a deal with dish network or Direct TV similar to the deal Rural Electric has in southern Wyoming with dish Network. basically the the dish provider supplies equipment and the city would install it and the city collects to money. The systems are installed free and the city would run the administrative part of it like Rural Electric does.
The beauty of such a setup is the City could give a cut rate deal on the basic service based on income level. Of course if you wanted a bigger package you would have to pay for it yourself. That way no tax payer money for porno.
and the religious channels could be made a part of the basic package.

Largest per capita Catholic population in the country. I've gotta think this one has some truth to it. You just know there's someone out there just waiting to file a lawsuit forcing government fiber to stop carrying religious broadcasts. If they get before the right (wrong?) judge, they'll win. | |
