Re: Free ride for smaller co's said by huntml:I'd agree with you if the incumbents gave back all the free easements, free spectrum, eminent domain awards, direct government grants and patent licenses, etc., they've received since the beginning of the 20th century. Free? I believe a lot of money changes hands for easements and spectrum licenses. Eminent domain actions aren't free. Grants, depends on what you're referring to. |

Mullica Hill, NJ | The first spectrum licenses were pretty much given away, weren't they? And do you really believe that every easement or eminent domain taking that has been executed for the benefit of a telecom, the money that changed hands was fair market value? |
