Really, your message is better targetted by lobbyists to their congress critters.

Their "greed" => your campaign contributions.
Hardly changes the fact that anyone with a 401K / IRA is a beneficiary of the evil corporations and their greed.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20852069 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 11:51:07 EDT Re: Competition? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20851949 disc :

Ahh, a little greasing of the skids in the marketplace of ideas. I guess that could help curry some favor with this board, but isn't it a little wasted?

First the telcos go after muni ftth projects, now they are attacking each other. Isn't greed great? :huh:
Well muni-ISP **IS** evil. I live in a city with it and given the choice would prefer that the "City of Gainesville d/b/a GRUnet" not exist.

But for AT&T to be against this sort of merger... well that's just the pot calling the kettle black.

Shareholders expect companies to be as profitable as legally possible.

Your 401K or IRA most likely has some AT&T shares... as stock or part of some mutual fund.
