1 edit | Re: How does this happen.... said by Raptor  :...when a single corporation, driven by green, can sue a town, of voters/elected members who democratically VOTED on a plan to improve their city. Because the state in which that town resides in passed a law in 2004 alleging to protect private telecommunications businesses from unfair government competition — called the Local Government Fair Competition Act .
Perhaps the local government should shoulder some of the blame for passing such a law. Does it make it right for cable & telco's to be able to sue? Who knows, its in the eye of the beholder. |
