Re: Futile

I was working for an Independent telco in Utah when it bought some exchanges from US West. While the service we provided was significantly better, we also raised prices after 6 months, by like over %10. We also got a bunch of subsidy money. (USF, NECA pooling, dirt cheap loans, etc.) Also, we weren't Union, so those Union jobs went away (we made significantly less than US West employees). So, from personal experience, I understand the trepidation these people have.

Isn't this all really just an argument about whether it's better to be a bigger frog in a smaller pond or a smaller frog in a bigger pond?
