Re: bahhhh

Ironic if say a bell is getting subsidized to deploy to rural areas they wouldn't deploy to because they were waiting for "regulatory clarity". They'd in essence be paid to hold off deployments in a sense....

Though I think many of these loans are either going to communities or small providers.....what hurdles did you face?

Sort of like the infamous (much mangled by me) Alfalfa analogy (credit I think to the Novel Catch 22).

Farmer John gets paid $1000 by the government not to grow Alfalfa on his 5 acres. There is too much Alfalfa. Farm John takes the $1000 not to grow Alfalfa and buys an another acre, not to grow Alfalfa on. Next year, the government pays Farmer John $1250 not to grow Alfalfa on 6 acres. There is to much Alfalfa. Next Year Farm John buys an additional 1.25 acres not to grow Alfalfa on ... (etc etc etc)
