Re: VZ blows, however on this issue I agree with them

Not practical. If you have 10 companies offering service you will need 10 sets of lines on poles. 10 times the ground is going to have to be dug up. 10 more chances something else is going to get cut unexpectedly.

This is like saying UPS and Fedex have to build and maintain there own roadways. Can't use the current roads they are for the USPS.

Underlying infrastructure needs to be removed from private hands and made public. This is they only way true competition will happen.

But in this case there are many areas with "zero" fiber lines on the poll. This way these small companies are the first one there. They are the ones that can choose to lease out the lines or deny access to competitors. I am not talking about overbuilding areas that already have fiber.

Yes, excellent business plan! The startup, who has little capital should really go to the places that everyone else has deemed unprofitable, even with their vast amounts of available cash.

Would you put your money in that?
