1 edit | Not a good thing. State owned telcos (ie. Brazil) are always against the consumers interests.
This is why Capitalism is critical for Liberty.

And what then if there is only one phone company and its a private venture? Not a lot of stuff going for the consumer there either.
Capitalism is okay, but only if there is competition.

Belvedere Tiburon, CA | Capitalism is the only system in which ANYBODY gets rich. Under Socialism or Communism, everybody is poor--though some have more power, and use that to gain some creature comforts.

said by calvoiper:Capitalism is the only system in which ANYBODY gets rich. Unless I misunderstood what you meant, that isn't the case... In feudalism, the landowners get rich... For your statement to be correct, it would have to be - Capitalism is a system in which everyone has a chance to get rich... Of course, everyone can't be rich.
