Or, for people who don't need or want long distance:

AT&T Unlimited Local: $10 +$12 taxes/fees etc = $22/mo.
And in my area, that amounts to: 100% uptime that does not rely on your internet connection, nor use up precious upstream bandwidth.

It's a steal. At this kind of price and reliability, I'll never ditch my landline. People ditching their landlines for cells or voip are either lucky enough to have ISPs and cells as reliable as my landline, or are shortsighted.
Unless they, apparently unlike you, read the new AT&T Residential Service Agreement, and objected to the terms of service.

It's tough to be forced to choose between your civil rights and cheap, dependable POTS. Especially, if like me, you have to give up telephone numbers that you may have had for a long, long time. Fuck AT&T!
