I can't comment on Philadelphia's track record as a muncipality.
I do think wireless is a valuable and manageable infrastructure
improvement, and it's something a municipality can implement. It
seems a good use of people's taxes.
I think of the example of Dennis Kucinich and Cleveland's power issue.
As I understand it, Kucinich fought to keep it public. He was
lambasted for it, but a recent audit showed that over the years it has
saved the city a lot of money.
If they turn over this game to oversized corporations, they'll never be
able to oversee it or get it back.
I don't think it's the same old thing, either. Each time this issue
comes up with a municipality, it increases awareness. In this case,
people should contact the governor and tell him: Don't sign.
