why can businesses sue these cities? Wouldnt the company want the city to lay the groundwork so it is cheaper for the teleco? |

| Mostly because these cities politicans have been bought by the telcos and cable companies, passing "Anti Competition" legislation.
Imagine for just a moment if these clowns would have spent a fraction of the money they've wasted trying to oppose muni broadband options, and invested it in their networks? |

| sounds like there should be a good for the community clause or technology advancement clause that would help the community . Like emminant domain for internet lines. If the teleco is not going to fix the blight the city will(blight as being slow copw lines) |
