Re: And here we go again....

It took citizen complaints to break up the old AT&T. It took the Republicans to put it back together. It is now time for people to complain again and get these greedy asses broke up or under control

Congress allowed it to happen and I think it's been equally controlled by both parties. Check the voting records of your senators and representatives. If they didn't stop it and you voted for either of them, you too contributed to "putting them back together".

If we're going to permit an oligopoly, we need better regulation. Otherwise the government needs to create more competition (tax breaks, cheap financing) to promote wireless. Wireless holds the most promise of rapidly-developed competition since it doesn't require the massive build-out cost and time of a hard-line network. We've been hearing about it for years but it seems to remain as just a bit of static on an otherwise clear monopolistic signal.

Yeah, that arch-Republican Bill Clinton, who signed the '96 telco bill. That neocon bastard!
