A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Okay but... Municipalities dont pay for capex beyond the install. Install costs are under 3k each, so less than $300M total?

Vs solar at around $70B per year.

Even if they were footing the bill, do you really think these cameras cost $2M each?
