Fiber is the future.

YEP!

Companies have done this for years. Think short-term, lose long-term. This is why always being pressured by Wall Street has sunk a lot of companies. They want to milk existing industries for all they're worth, but never invest in what's new.

This will cost Verizon more than they hope to save.

BTW, this is the mentality that is KILLING this country...

Different people have different needs, so generic statements like that are meaningless..

Secondly, I have NEVER had a wireless signal that was stable, and in many cases the signal was so poor I couldn't hit top speeds...
I don't see it improving anytime soon.

Wireless will always have less bandwidth and reliability than wired, but for outlying areas that have no good wired connectivity, LTE could be great. However, we've heard that Wifi and then WiMAX were going to serve these areas, and so far they haven't. Hopefully it changes this time around.
