This might not be the place for such a rant but....
US West is just as bad. And more importantly, the baby bells still have an effective monopoly on providing local service. Why? Because they continue to kick in huge amounts of campaign contributions. The laws designed to allow competitors to enter the market are already on the books, they're just not enforced. This allows the baby bells to drag their feet. The result? Well, today's delay is just the first example.
Hence, like many other areas of America, we have all the cost of privatized services, with all the effeciency of socialized services.
Viva campaign finance reform.
And thanks fellahs for working on the patch.
