Re: Not too bad of an article by Kushnik said by hoyleysox:However, I don't understand how rolling out FTTP and providing an alternative to cable and satellite is "not in their members' best interests". You mean let companies provide a competitive service to a community without draconian regulations? Why you filthy Captialist! How dare you suggest that private industry be allowed to make a profit on a non-essential service without government micro-management! 
To answer your question- the state franchising laws encouraging competition probably is in the best interest of the groups in question. However, this is BBR where anyone who supports a position that favors a service provider- no matter what potential benefit there might be to customers- just has to be a bought and paid for shill or troll. That someone might just favor free enterprise doesn't register on the radar around here. |
