Wow, completely missed the key words:
Speed wasn't mentioned at all
No. I didn't. Several of what I'm referencing is city owned. Oops don't you look stupid now.
Edit: Also you're linking your politics to companies trustworthiness, as if either side is doing anything worth a damn against shitty companies. Speed is going to be a direct comparison of markets that would outline if those companies are shitty or not... No? In either case you're being stupidly obtuse in linking these 2 topics.
It's far more common for Democrat run municipalities to create municipal cable and for Republicans to outlaw (or propose outlawing) municipal cable state wide.
It's not even politicizing it's a literal Republican talking point that the government should stay out of things and let free market competition sort these things out.
The problem with that of course is that they'd rather take money from some regional monopolies than actually create a free market system with reasonable restrictions on it.
