 If Verizon retires copper, they will have to provide the service that their PUC filled tarrifs and state regulations require (lifeline and basic local phone service). We all know landline rates on copper and FIOS are identical. So section 8 people will get landline phone, except no $20 DSL, but more expensive FIOS. But that doens't matter, nobody regulates internet prices.
