I only wish there was. Hell, I'm paying for it anyway with my tax dollars. The problem here is that there would be an empty run of about 1.5 miles to even get to the head of the (dead-end) road I live on. That empty run has maybe 3 possible hook ups on it 2 of which already have StarLink.  On this road are maybe 20 families,  of which perhaps 1/4 of them would give up a 6-pack,  a few packs of butts, and a pizza every month to get reliable internet.  It's just not going to pay.</blockquote>
