Re: hate it for em
Because they bribe the building owner in order to eliminate competition.
There are some cable shills who see this as simple competition, but competition on who can pay the biggest bribe isn't competition. |

As I mentioned before, direct kickbacks are illegal.

Eliminate exclusive contracts.
Allow discounted contracts with landlords.
Allow landlords to rent at market rates (offering choice)
Renters/Condo owners have choice (free cable from LL, other Cable, Sat, Better yet no cable for those LLs that don't buy in - i.e. make it look like buying a house)
Now you may have your assertion that tenants bribe the owners, technically. |
