So make it a public utility perhaps considering it's so critical these days
Someone doesn't understand what eminent domain is. Sad.
Even better, those cables were supposed to be replaced by the companies that own it using money from the government. Since they didn't do that, might as well take the cables and money back and make it a public utility.
We paid for them to upgrade that infrastructure to the tune of several billion, and those companies just lined their pockets instead. Fuck ‘em. We practically bought it at this point. That shit is basically ours.
