Gee, you're in ohio. By your logic, that means you shouldn't help pay for the interstate highway in florida, I mean you'll never use it.
As usual, you are comparing apples to kumquats. A business (which exists to make money), has absolutely nothing to do with a federal highway system.

Business exists to serve the customer. If the customer happens to be a city or town or state, they have every right to REQUIRE certain features.
No, they have every right to request certain features. If the business determines it is unprofitable (or impossible) to provide that service then the customer is out of luck.

Of course, the reversal of the vote just goes to show you how corrupt all the officials are. I'm sure most of the 'voters' got a nice envelope filled with cash to 'reconsider' their vote. Cash from Verizon of course.
Ha! Thats a funny one. While we are on the topic, I have a great bridge to sell you in this little place called Brooklyn.....

exactly. Business exist to make money, not take federal, state, or local funding. They could always get a loan though. You never vote for tax dollars to go to private entities. They have no right to spend my hard earned dollars. Crooks.
