This will only hurt ATT

In this time of Consumers evaluating their budgets and doing allot of cost cutting to make ends meet, any rate hike will cause those consumers to seriously think about the costs and maybe find other options.
There are those that will say "a company needs to make a profit." That is understood.
But when a company can still make billions in a slow economy, and still feel the need to raise rates. It only hurts the consumer who doesn't have as much money for bills as they once did. So they will in turn, either not pay a bill and let it get disconnected. Or just cancel their subscription. both are already happening at a much higher rate then years past.
We consumers don't have a deep pocket as we once did to pay for things. We are learning to do without some of the "fluff" we thought we needed. Or can find a cheaper option.
