Mediacom has actually done a good job for us in this area. I did have them run a new line from the pole. Very few issues

Nor do I, except with an AT&T hot spot, which is slow compared to cable or fiber, and it has a data limit.

I have socket and it’s so slow

We live out in the country. We're surrounded by trees we can't pick up any channels thru an over the air antenna. And only have one spot we could pick a satellite signal up at. And our neighbors allowed us to drop trees on their property just so we could have that. So satellite internet isn't viabl

Biden said he would get economical high speed internet to everyone. He will get that after Iran has theirs installed at no cost. Don't worry, the guviment will pay for it. And there is also something going on in Ukraine he has to fix. Then there is this Taiwan issue where the car chips are made.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Max

So, you support Iran? Well, I support America.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Max

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

Steve Baumann

Far bigger issues than fuel prices

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

Steve Baumann

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Fred

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

Max

You finally got one right. Did you have help?

Zaos Gonzolez

Your own safety is your own responsibility.
