I don't understnad you guys

You complain about the "bought and paid for by (insert company here)" politicians; you complain about corruption, and all the ridiculous new laws the techno-ignorant politicians want to institute; then in the next sentence you clamor for those same politicians to set up your muni-networks(where the government is in direct competition with commercial enterprises), and even better you believe them when they say things like "it won't cost one taxpayer anything ever". It's amazing how when it's something you want suddenly the politicians are telling the truth.

It's not the "same politicians". It's fed and state vs. town and city. Granted the latter can be corrupt too, but many of these projects are born out of a desire to see the community develop. Laws banning such projects are born out of simple greed.

A politician is a politician, and I think you'll find that local politicians tend to be more corrupt as not many people care about local politics so no ones watching.

Its pretty safe to say that in the one of the most, if not the most, politically active cities in the entire world, people are watching.

Wanna bet on how deep those people look, betcha it's no deeper than "what I want, now!", just like the rest of the world.
