Then one can understand how come folks like Century Tel can gobble up
Qwest, Savvis, Sprint, and a few others rather quickly !!!
I believe the current USF contribution is about 19% !!!

That's OK, you're all in the same boat - the subsidized users can't
get it either. :)
So where are these "subsidies" going?
what a silly question. lining the telcos' pockets. american so called
'broadband' is a joke and a scam.
