Markets are extremely bad when it comes to proper allocation of essentials. Infrastructure in general should be nationalized at minimum, and heavily invested in.
It’s literally a fucking necessity so if course it’s privately owned… It’s so ridiculous how we treat necessities… Tell me what job you can apply to that doesn’t require it to be done over the Internet?
I remember when I could walk in to a store and shake the managers hand, then things changed and I got looked at like I was crazy “just go online and apply, why are you here?”
Full agreement, way ahead of you. Instead of having a robust, publicly funded infrastructure-based necessity (internet service), it gets chopped up and sold piece-by-piece with price-gouging and local monopolies like warlords.
Nationalize internet.
Hows about “Create local and municipal fiber to the curb to stoke competition and drive down prices” instead ?
