The AT&T Bell South Merger
The Feds busted them up for having too much influence and not enuff competition.. The result, from Congress, was WORSE. THen they really clipped us good.

Now, the Fed is giving them another shot at monopoly, and I am sure they will get it right this time, costing us even greater dollars, and a reversal in competative services.

I just can't wait to see how sore my butt will be this time..........

Verizon is as close as I figurd we would get, since they are actually doing what was promised(fiber to our door). I suppose they won't make it.....

Good Luck to all of us. The government lets Big Business slap it to us again. Whoopeee.....
