How about people who use primarily solar to charge their cars. Now they are getting hit with electricity costs and arent paying for roadways to be kept up.

1) Are you sure it's ATT doing the excavation?
2) This is the only reason ATT would *actually* be laying fiber to such a down-scale place as yours. ATT makes money hand-over-fist on their Capex expenditures from way back in the 1980's and 1990's. Why would they want to increase those Capex costs just to give you faster service? (Hint: They don't.)
Right now it's way cheaper in long term to install fiber for Repair/Upgrades then Capex
The unfacts, did we have them, are too imprecisely few to warrant our certitude.
