MODERATORS
I wrote a four sentence paragraph saying why they have a monopoly in a lot of places, saying the entire economic model around them should be replaced, and accusing them of using monopoly power to price gouge. It's incredible how this is the exact opposite of what you're accusing me of saying.
Here's your paragraph:
pretend that they're isolated in their market behavior because of some innate peculiarity in this market
apologize for the difficulties of being a telecom provider, and pretend that exclusivity in localities isn't something they directly lobbied for (i.e. corrupted the local government for)
"most people say this is the government's job" most people? Ok. Is that what you're saying?
I too am getting fucked by Comcast... Ok? Great.
It's not just telecommunications companies that have these problems. Do a depth analysis on other market segments. Everywhere you look in the US economy there's an orgy of monopolistic or duopolistic markets, cartels, price gougers, government corruption, endless corporate acquisitions, and every other type of anticompetitive behavior.
Just doubling down on the bad faith. Yep, not playing this game. Not everyone is your enemy pal.
