Re: Stupid Time Warner said by morbo:uh, you had me until this line. said by fiberguy:SIMPLE, and I do mean simple, regulation of the industry is all that is needed. It worked well for the phone systems for a century. i'm not sure that the monstrosity known as AT&T monopoly was such a good thing for consumers. I did?? I'll mark this day down .. sweet! lol
No, when I mean "simple regulation" I'm talking about setting basic operating rules, and rates (tariffs) and POST the break up of the bells. Trust me, too, I've been beat up enough by the phone companies in the 90's.. I'm not a huge fan of theirs, but under the days they were regulated, there was one thing that was great about them.. that was that when you called them up, you could talk to 20 representatives and you were dang near certain to get the same answer from each one. I'll give them credit for that. |
