I'm sorry, just to be clear, are you talking about muni operators or incumbent operators?
My bad.

Both do quite well (financially) when getting taxpayer money. We see the same examples when taxpayers build stadiums for professional sports teams and such.

And that's why it is always wrong, and it is always the fault of the government when these things are allowed to happen.

Who's fault is it when any private company gets any taxpayer money?

Both obviously, because both do so. The funny thing is that taxpayers can either spend the money on their own infrastructure, or they can spend the money propping up some investors portfolio.

Leave out of the search wifi/wimax and get back to me.
Why? These are perfect examples of why governments need to stay out of the Internet racket.

Municpal wired networks have done just fine...
Of course they have. It is very easy to be successful when you have the taxpayer teat, or funds coming in from another municipally run service, from which you can leech.

Local money in local governments is very much controlable by locals.
