Re: Jealous

Muni broadband does not use tax dollars. They use municipal revenue bonds that are sold to third parties, are insured, and paid back by the subscribers.

Tax dollars are only involved when a taxing body wants to offer the service to everyone for free and covers their costs in their annual tax revenue budget. The typical "tax supported" broadband is in libraries and courthouses.

As I've said before, when it comes to government all bets are off when the cow poopie hits the fan; the only sure thing is that if no one else steps in, the taxpayers are then ones who will pay by default when someone doesn't follow thru on their promise.
