Re: Just wire up all of PA said by pnh102:said by BF69:So in otherwords the town said "all or nothing" and Verizon said "Ok nothing". Real smart town leaders there. Something > nothing. Last time I checked. That's why I have always blamed government for the lack of broadband deployment in this country. Like it or not, there will be some places which are simply unprofitable for some companies to wire up. It isn't fair to everyone else that all other potential customers be deprived of expanded broadband deployments because government places unreasonable demands on ISPs. I was having a discussion about this just the other day. All these small municipalities demanding "100% coverage" are really only hurting the consumer. It appears that Verizon, just like ATT, will simply pass over those communities that put their socialistic principals above the good of the majority of their citizens. I will state my premise on this again, "more choices for some people is better than no choices for all people". I suppose the local government would rather see the entire town/county/etc suffer instead of letting a portion of their residents get better service. 'SHRUG' I sure as heck didnt vote for them, and I suggest the people who live there remember this next time elections come around.
