        Party of less government my ***.

        When the Department of Justice approved T-Mobile's purchase of Sprint, the DOJ's antitrust officials insisted T-Mobile and Sprint sell some of their assets to Dish Network in what amounts to a government attempt to micromanage the mobile industry.
        But will propping up Dish actually replace the lost competition? The answer in the short term is clearly no, because the merger remedies won't result in Dish building a nationwide network overnight. It will take at least a few years, and consumers will be stuck with three major carriers during that time. Even in the long run, Dish isn't likely to become a full-fledged nationwide competitor because Dish's plan only calls for covering 70 percent of the US population by June 2023. That could leave 100 million Americans without the option of a fourth carrier.
        And in Flyover country, Sprint/TMobile exist only as annoying commercials that air during Hannity and Tucker Carlson, as those residents are lucky to have *either* AT&T or Verizon.

        I know of many places back home where either one service works, or the other, but not both simulatiously.

        I also know of places back home that when you're travelling on a US highway you have zero cell coverage for miles.

          "Government shouldn't be in the business of picking winners and losers in the business world" say every Rightwingnut ever, even on this board.

          I'm sure they're all outraged by this.

            The problem is that not only do they pick winners and losers but they also threw out the monopoly statute. Again, money is all that matters in this country.

              For a guy who is always derisively posting "money is all that matters in this country" you spend an awful lot of time posting and complaining about people/companies unfairly acquiring financial wealth for themselves. If money doesn't matter, what do you care?
              That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                  Anyone else make sense of this? I can't read this statement and comment because it makes zero sense? What?

                    Also used to hear a lot about how businesses and the markets don't like uncertainty in their government policies and leaders.

                    Don't hear much of that anymore, either.

                                So, they're pulling up stakes? Does that mean Alaska will join Puerto Rico on Trump's **** list?
