Verizon Wireless has about 300 seats on the SW side of town and Sprint(?) has a building under construction that will seat about that many. Comcast has a smaller setup (~150?) here also.

I guess it beats having a hazardous waste incinerator upwind....

We need to reign in these companies like Walmart. No don't even try to give me that crap about free markets. Me and Buddha know best what America needs. Once we stop the evil tide known as Walmart we'll go for the babies with disabilities and the dark haired , dark eyed children.

a guy told me today that granite shipped to the us from china (for an importer) costs $3/ft**2 ... and sells for $80/ft**2. makes you think, doesn't it? like, why does UPS charge 12 bucks for shipping a package to the next state when you can turn a $77/ft**2 profit on a cargo container full of rocks.

Wouldn't a free market mean no government subsidies?
