Because our employees are experiencing, you know, 20 to 25 percent a day in downtime, due to the internet speed.

每天有20%到25%的时间，我们的员工因为网速慢而停工。

They're not, you know, being able to effectively do their work as efficiently as possible. We have been waiting for a year now to have fiber brought to us.

他们没办法尽可能高效地开展工作。我们已经等了一年，就等着光纤接入。

They just say that we're not within their territory and they don't have to provide us service.

他们只是说我们不在他们的辖区内，他们不必为我们提供服务。

If it's an issue of giving service that's necessary for public safety, then there's a very strong social argument or public argument.

如果提供网络事关公众安全，肯定会有强烈的公众要求或社会要求。

So, hospitals, the police, homeland defense, perhaps other emergency services that are provided in the area.

这个区域的医院、警察、国土安全部和其他应急服务机构肯定都有网络。

It's a little bit more difficult to make an argument that then you also need to subsidize internet service to an individual household.

但是如果说每家每户都要能联网，那就很困难了。

The total package will probably be around 5,000 dollars by the time it's brought to us, installed, and all the fiber and things are done within the building.

联网这一整套服务下来可能要花费5000美元左右，从安装、光纤到建筑内部的设置。
