Re: That company is finished

said by fiberguy See Profile :

They're eventually going to have to renew their franchise agreements and the local governments, those people that actually are forced to live with those services, are going to speak up. The local levels tend to be more effective than the feds anyway.
Too bad because of Verizon's lobbying and legislation that passed because of it, MANY franchises are now state run and not local. Now in many areas locals have fewer rights and abilities to demand concessions for service.
