Re: No Understanding of Business
Not only that but I guess he thinks Comcast employees work for free and don't expect raises every year if they did a good job. Payroll cost go up every year usually, health benefits, programming cost also.
Morac is going to go into shock when someone tells him that Fios rates went up this year in some areas.

I agree on the employee costs but if Comcast has debt from resulting upgrades/acquisitions, they should reduce it and spend less on interest. We also must consider the relentless march of technology which gets faster and cheaper. |

Considering for field and maintence techs only get a 15 to 35 cent raise per year you can bet that money is not going to the peons that work there. |

FIOS may have gone up 7%, but it's still 30% cheaper than Comcast.
Comcast isn't raising rates to give bonuses to it's employees. To think that is just idiotic.

Fios raised its rate after 1 year. Get used to it.
Bonuses to employees? Who said anything about bonuses. I was talking about your average increases that most people get from year to year, usually 3 to 5 percent.
Did you pay more for gasoline /diesel last year? My guess you did like everbody else and guess what, everyone who has fleet of trucks did also and that includes Comcast.
You are living in a fantasy world if you think you are not going to get yearly increases with FIOS TV.
Dates for you to remember.
2/1/07 Comcast announces earnings for 4th quarter
Some time in March DTv and Dish will anounce their price increases.
