Re: "We suck less!" said by batterup:MCI is the company that brought about the breakup of the Bell System. Yes, no matter how badly the break up has worked out, at least we can Thank God for MCI.... who knows how far back we'd be if the Bell system was never broken up. I do agree though that we're going to have to bring back some regulation to the system now that AT&T is quickly rebuilding the monopoly... especially as they are extending it into wireless and internet as well.

If you regulate the business you must guarantee a profit, if not it will not be built. There is no free lunch. As for wireless I have a choice of T-Mobile, at&t, Verizon and others. What are you talking about? |
