Worried that a muni operation might cause a tax increase?
Consider this. A small community with just 5000 phone lines sends $2,400,000/yr out of the local economy to the national telco.
$40/mo * 12 mo * 5000 customers = 2,400,000
This money leaves the local community, never to be seen again. Obviously, a muni operation will keep a portion of that to be used locally.
So the question is do you want to contribute to angry Ed's obscene bonus or keep the money local? |
