Re: No Wonder We're Not Tops

Its not about negotiating a better deal. The Death star is trying to either circumvent or change law.
But why is it wrong for AT&T to lobby to change laws that it finds disagreeable?
said by S_engineer See Profile :

What incentive does a cableco have to lower their prices when ATT is delivering the same product without paying a franchise tax....none!
There is nothing stopping them from lobbying to have the law changed on their behalf either.
said by S_engineer See Profile :

The Death Star would be better off in the long run to invest in their infrastructure rather than lobbiests....
How can they when the government won't let them do that?
