Where do you think that money comes from? It isn't like the cable/telcos reduce their profit margins - they just boost what you pay to pass the additional cost through. And this makes a difference, how? Those fees will be in your bill whether it comes from a local franchise fee or a national one. I'm talking about how much of that fee actually goes to your community. |
