Re: gov't and competent???

said by RandomX22:
Tacoma's Click! network seems to be near perfect and at half the damn price that comcash charges. Their local government seems to be working just fine.

It's not to say that other local municipalities will be as efficient, but it's becoming more and more commonplace for the state's local cities to start thinking about city run network broadband.
The great thing about municipal networks is that they are not worried about making a profit, making stockholders happy(which is what most corporations care about above all else), etc. As long as they make enough money to cover the operating expenses, all is hunky-dory.
