1st of all, I think we have competition now in most areas.
Please say more about this competition that we have in most areas.

OK. So what is *your* suggesting for fostering competition in the telecom industries?
1st of all, I think we have competition now in most areas.

2nd, give smaller players a holiday from regulations, especially by state and local governments. No build out requirements; no reporting requirements; no extra taxes like USF, local sales taxes, etc until a company reaches a certain size.

1. Certainly arguable.

2. Not a bad idea, but certainly to be lobbied hard against by the incumbents.

What happened to 3-5, TK? These were some very interesting ideas, and I was in the middle of replying to tell you I thought so when they evaporated.

Too far off the party line, maybe? Some of the things you proposed were things I think would help, but they aren't the kind of things I've ever seen put forward by the GOP. Restriction of localities' ability to refuse to allow easements? Patent reform? Really, TK.
