Re: Google Conference The rules were put in place because the in and out call volumes tend to be unbalanced. Most of the small telcos barely break even. My family paid more for a 4 party line then our friends that lived a half mile away in a Bell territory did for a private line. I was on the edge of a big city and calling the Bell area was "free" but was actually a long distance call you paid for it in your flat rate bill. The ratio was 4 to1 of calls going from the independent telco to the Bell system. It is to keep the prices reasonable in those rural area.
The problem is these outside companies and the small telcos are gaming the system.
That is the problem too many Americans have decided the rules don't apply to me. The government makes more rules but the only people that follow the new rules are the ones that were not gaming the system in the first place. It just finally makes life a pain and the lawyers make a fortune.
For the record I am no angel. |
