| Holy Crap... "For example, Fort Mojave Telecommunications, Inc. in Mojave Valley, Ariz., will use a $16.9 million Rural Development telecommunications loan to connect 60 subscribers, deploy 36 route miles of fiber and copper cables, make improvements and additions to its existing plant and construct a 2,000-square-foot warehouse on leased land on the Fort Mojave Reservation in the Arizona Village Exchange. "
All of that for 60 subscribers??? $16.9 million | |

San Antonio, TX | Wow, For that, I think it would be a waste. I can understand putting it in a fairly decent population but for only 60 people and almost 17 mil, thats just crazy | |

They say they will give deals for communities with less than 20,000. But is a community a county, a township, a town, a grouping of farmhouses around an intersection of 2 rural roads? The same goes for the other proviso about loans for areas with less than 5,000.
Those criteria let the loans be given out to just about any area the bureaucrats deem worthy. Sounds like it really just turns in to another pork project controlled by appointed flunkies of local pols in the Agriculture Dept.
