yeah but you there is going to be some idiot or some senior citizen that doesn't know anything about computers or could care less about the internet and is going to complain about tax dollars being spent on a muni-project. |

| reply to ashakouri1 The heck of it is that it takes (wasted) taxpayer dollars to even begin to fight off the Big Bad Wolves. But it's not all that bad because it seems typical that the municipalities are only able to come up with a few thousand dollars to tout the PRO side of it while the large businesses spend tens or hundreds of thousands telling how cruel a punishment it would be on the citizens.
If it's true that it takes money to make money then the cableco's and telco's should do well, because they sure have the deep pockets necessary to protect their future interests. |

| reply to ashakouri1 I don't have any kids, but my complaining of tax dollars being spent on education tend to not make a difference. I wonder why this one does. Must be people more rich than I doing the bitching.
We are all one big happy tax family. Everyone has to pay for everything. Unless its something cool for us, then it never seems to work out. |
