<div>If I rolled out fiber to a small village in Zimbabwe, I could probably buy the land to run the cable on cheaper then in the US, hire out workers to run the cable cheaper then US, and then that little village that now has a fiber running to it, can have blazing fast speed because there is all of 10 to 20 people using it. (exaggeration noted).</div>

<div>Lets now run cable to BF, Texas. I have to buy land either from the state, or from other people, abide by all kinds of regulations like OSHA and state and federal safety codes, file mounds paperwork with the State comptroller. Pay minimum wage for all my workers, healthcare, social security (we will keep this legal so I will not be using illegal immigrants). Pay for all kinds building licenses, right of ways, etc. Texas is a Right to Work state, so I do not have to deal with unions and that cluster*#&$, but lets not forget that fact for other states. Finally after dropping all that cash to get to a small city, we are dealing with at least 100 people. Running the same fiber one block in New York City, and it will service maybe one apartment building, and you can see the scaling problem.</div>

<div>Lets move to WiMaxx now. You will need building licenses for the tower, and maybe FCC licenses for the transceiver. Plus everything mentioned above for the connection to the WiMaxx transceiver to the intertubes.<br>
If anyone can find a place to cut down on costs, we might have a new business model here.<br></div>
