A simpler solution

Providers could freely choose to meet reasonable QoS standards on their own, then they wouldn't have to be regulated on QoS standards.

Will it cost money? Of course it will, can't make an omelette without breaking eggs. Will they lose money? No, they'll make money. They just won't make enough to have a high/low salary ratio of 540:1 and buy themselves hockey teams, they'll just make enough to have a high/low salary ratio of 40:1 as everyone in America did back when we were capitalists.

Do the math and figure out how many knowledgeable tech support engineers can be hired if a multi-million-dollar/year CEO knocks off 1/4 of his salary. In exchange for no regulation of my QoS, I'd give up twice that much in a hot New York minute. How many hockey teams do I want to own? How many boats can I water-ski behind? How many kids can I send to Harvard? When did it become Capitalism to take home the equivalent of a small European country's annual GDP? Nobody is that good.

Ask me again when my annual salary is between 7 and 8 figures. I'll have more of a life-experience to be able to answer that question. My basic common sense tells me that the less I take for myself, assuming I take enough (low to mid 6 figures would be enough), and the more I plough back into the business, the better the business will be, the happier my employees and customers will be, the better-off I'll be.
