A government run telecommunication system would qualify as interference in the economy. A TWC bill that would in effect grant only incumbents an inherent monopoly and a "You can't have it until we do it" broadband solution would also qualify as interference in the economy.
You could also claim that having public schools is interfering with the economy because otherwise private schools would handle education. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini

If they can't/won't offer the service that these muni setups can and do well from the look of it and the voters and things that wanted this setup and got it going, incumbents like TWC and others have no business butting in and trying to stop it.
I'll be cheering on Google and others in opposing this. TWC deserves to get stomped for crafting crap like this that would give them an unfair advantage.
If companies like them put all the time and money they spent on bogus crap like this, back into the network, the "playing field" would be level and competitive. (At least speed wise.)
It'll be interesting to see what happens and how this goes. |

 en102Canadian, eh? join:2001-01-26 Valencia, CA | reply to KrK Don't forget private hospitals vs. county run. I have to pay for both (taxes/medical/medicade/medicare cost me ~ thousands/year, and I'm forced to purchase private insurance which also costs me thousands/year - but I'm techically not allowed to use county because I have an address/SSN). |

I do happen to claim that government schools are interfering with the economy. More than that they appear to have indoctrinated a nice little mob to pat each other on the back for robbing their neighbor. |
