said by boober321  :It is better to get a company in that will roll out the service FOR ALL customers. Great that you are one of those anti-Americans that want to develop a two tiered system for the rich and the poor.
You are correct, it IS better to have a service rolled out to ALL customers but that is economically not feasible. The payback on a system that only feeds a handful of customers (such as in the less populated areas of the state) would be far too long, if at all.
Given that, it makes sense that the company will invest in areas that will make money - what company wouldn't? But, to say that this is being delivered to the rich only and not the poor is WAY off target. Uverse is already installed in the downtown areas of Waterbury, New Haven, Hartford, Bridgeport, etc. If you want to call those areas rich feel free, but I would hate to see your definition of poor.
Uverse is being deployed in areas that have the highest density first to enable AT&T to make the most bang for the buck. I suppose you can say that is wrong, especially if you live in the rural areas, but it is business. |
