      My hometown, Kingsport, TN, population 52,000 is the world headquarters of Eastman Chemical Company, which employs more than 10,000 people in Kingsport. And Kingsport is not some "fake" small town that's actually a suburb of a huge city - that's it. 20% of the population is under 18 and 20% is over 65, so Eastman employs fully 1/3 of the working age citizens, which is pretty mind boggling.

      My first job was in Vergennes, VT, with a population of ~2,000. During the heyday of the B-2 program, the local aerospace company, Simmonds Precision (now owned by UTAS) employed more than 2,000 people. It's down to ~700 now, but that's still an even higher ratio than Kingsport.
      If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

                          And it will likely get past the regulatory hurdles due to this current government, unlike the failed 2011 merger between TMobile and ATT. Or the failed TMobile/Sprint merger in 2017.

                                I thought I heard that even after the merger the new entity will be #3 behind Verizon and AT&T.
