He might can make an easy buck on these clueless stupid corporats but nobody can be fooled: THIS IS VERY GOOD NEWS FOR EVERYONE, FOR ALL CUSTOMERS!
I would go further and call for an action: let's cut back your wireless spendings and accelerate this process - the less you spend the sooner they will introduce drastic price cuts BECAUSE THEY HAVE ZERO CHOICE! 
This is what I'm telling to everybody, that there's a flip side to this economic meltdown: things get cheaper. -- [BQUOTE=[user=bicker]]Waaaa waaaa waaaa. You just want what you want and don't care to factor in what is right or true. Your perspectives are un-American, and deserve far more ridicule than I'm prepared to pile on them. [/BQUOTE] |

Deflation is actually the worst thing that can happen to an economy. Cheaper to a point due to competition is a good thing. Cheaper to where its more expensive to make than it is to sell is bad.
Things getting cheaper has a very serious and debilitating effect on those who make the goods. They usually stop selling them and they and their workers no longer have work. No longer have work...no longer have money...no money to spend means no one buys the goods...the cycle becomes self fulfilling and spiraling. That is not a good thing.
Dont think it can happen? They didnt think so in 1928...they are hoping it wont happen now and are doing all they can to prevent deflation or at least they hope they are doing all they can... |

There's virtually zero price competition right now and we are talking about THIS news, ablout the loomin price wars in wireless services - what are you talking about?

Too bad these companies don't sell anything but a service, making money hand over fist while abusing the market.
Secondly cheaper communication services means BETTER BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR small businesses, everyday people.
I am sick and tired of all the BS these megalo-corporats keep telling everybody, that their future defines our future - this COMPLETE AND UTTER BS serves THE WEALTHIEST 1% of the population, THEIR GRIP on the wealth, this is compelte and utter BS, period. --
