Re: Obama wants more rural broadband thru USF fees

But again, why should private investors finance their own network? Most cell phone companies and ISPs paid for their infrastructure using subscriber fees, why can't the people of WV do the same?

you answered your own question. They pay for their infrastructure using subscriber fees, but they're not doing that here. They're just reaping the profits.

I do know that the death star added 27 "cell sites" over the past couple years, but they still have the slowest, poorest coverage around here.

Yea, my verizon land line in Poca was terrible but the ATT service was pretty good. Until you when down the other side of the hill from the golf course.

yeah, out that road, Sprint/Alltel/Verizon/Ntelos (CDMA) is the only service that works.
