Seems to me this fits exactly into what the article is really about, eminent domain. It's in the town's best interest to provide high-speed internet. Verizon was given a virtual monopoly to provide this service. If they're not, it's in the public's best interest to take the lines under eminent domain and give them to somebody who will provide the service.

Thank you.
Ever since I saw that movie I wondered if that was a real condition. Does anybody know which book has that story?
