Don't make it an auction then if they didn't want this to happen.

Your right. First a small company would have to pay the government a few billion for the rights to the spectrum. Then a few billion more for a national or even significant regional build out. All this before you get the first dime back from selling your service. What idiot would think that a small business was going to drop a few billion to go head to head with the deathstar?

Bingo!
There is no new national competitor to provoke new broadband competition, innovation, and consumer choice coming out of the auction.
Was that one of the objectives of the auction?
