Re: Divide between European and U.S. telcos widens

It's obvious. "A overcrowded market". Translation: They actually have competition. The EU telecoms have lots of competition, the US ones don't.

Why is it surprising the US ones are "Rich"? Because we're making them so. They are bending us over, and making fat profits.

This is by no means "Good" for us US consumers.

Yes, but notice with the exception of Scandinavia and Central Europe, Europe has been slow in adopting 4G LTE.

As for bending over customers, that wouldn't be too much of the issue if we had consistent service, but we pay not only more but pay more for less service.

Even Canada has more consistent 3g/4g coverage especially in more rural areas. That isn't so for States especially in Midwest.

Europe has it's own problems too. Look at gas prices there.
