This

why?

when X company has to invest in infrastructure and Y company comes in and piggybacks or has to invest in the same (i.e. laying fiber cable), how does charging more for enhanced services not create demand for reduced consumer costs due to competition relative to demand....

did you know that all that hook to the poles have a pay a percentage/pole to the utility corp that buried the pole?

why do you think they're burying everything now?

one might think weather conditions....they'd be wrong....

At a point costs are recouped and at a point the value to society as a whole, and the possible constraints on the artery of commerce, are so great that it is in society's interest to take over. We did it with roads and other instrumentalities before.
