In my opinion, this is nothing more than economic blackmail.
It's called Extortion.. a felony in most states..

I think the appropriate punishment for Bell South Inc. would be the forfeiture of all assets in the state and a lifetime ban from doing business in Louisiana.

That would put All mega corps on notice. Make an economic threat and pay the price in spades.

Saying they're going to take their ball and go home isn't extortion. OK, it is, but I don't think you can charge them with extortion in a courtroom.
