Re: How about some common sense... Verizon is a monopoly to the point they are guaranteed existence. And due to the off the wall regulations the FCC has been spewing, we have government in the back pocket of the Bell's running the show.
Telco's were born under monopoly protection. Their infrastructures were built buy rate payers and they were to be trustees for the rate payers. Any other form of operations is 180% out from the purpose of their protection. Since they no longer meet this role as trustee, they should no longer be allowed any protection as a utility or legal monopoly. I reitterate, their infrastructure is supposed to be the rate payers infrastructure. The telcos could not have built the infrastructure without the protection of a utility. And for them to act as though they earned or developed this infrastructure as a competitive company is nothing short of stealing or a breach of their fiduciary duties to the rate payers! |
