You mean competition is good? There's a shocker.

Re: [Insert witty subject here]

The rate jiggling you speak of is handled that way *everywhere* in the US. The FCC permits cable companies to raise their regulated rates subject to appeal by the LFA. If the cable goes ahead despite the appeal and the appeal is successful, the cable must pay back the customers.

Bottom line is that LFA's almost always pay a consultant to analyze whether regulated rates are too high. The outcome should be no surprise.
