Why should we put the cost burden on a larger company because a smaller company can't afford to enter a market and compete?
Because public policy at the time allowed the ILECs to build out. The ILECs could only afford to build out if they were protected monopolies with guaranteed profit margins.

Now, you're saying that the new CLECs must compete against these ILECs by paying "full-freight" out of their own pocket?...

 So what's your option? Maybe the CLECs should band together to build their own infrastructure. Or maybe they should purchase the old copper infrastructure as telcos migrate to fiber. Or maybe they should lobby for policy changes that might better facilitate their financial interests.
