Investor is an Idiot

Verizon's management knows that unless they move to an infrastructure that they fully own and control, that they are doomed. Verizon has no incentive to build out copper to expand DSL deployments because CLECs would be able to use these investments for free. Fiber is a whole different ball game though. They can build it to wherever they want (preferably to the most profitable areas) without fears of competing companies freeloading off of this infrastructure.

Comcast was killing Verizon in the broadband game because Comcast had built out service to areas to which Verizon would not provide DSL. Investors need to understand that FIOS is not some sort of "luxury toy technology" but it is the only way Verizon is going to remain relevant and survive in the 21st century.
