:said by Rob :The reason why the baby bells are under regulation is because they've shown in the past that they cannot play nicely when they have free reign..
why in the past few years have we been giving them more control and less regulation? Because phone service is no longer a monopoly. There are plenty of competitors available - from cable to wireless to CLECS. There is no longer a need for regulation. Especially since the new competitors are not regulated.
It doesn't matter. They still can't be left alone. They are like children. Look at Verizon and what they did with the USF Fee when it was removed. Yea they removed it, but after an uprorar.
