Perhaps the people who do want government provided broadband should voluntarily choose to pay extra money out of their pockets to pay for it. Ideally, I think those people who want broadband should band together themselves and take care of the problem on their own. Let the government get out of their way in the process as well.
I live in Geneva, one of the cities that is doing this. The cities plan on paying for this by issuing bonds, and the expectation is that these bond would be paid for in about 3 years through subscription fees. It is not taxpayer based, but the initial investment is to be paid for by bonds and paid off through subscriptions. -- Intelligent discussion is invited and encouraged. |
