You are FORCED to use these services or live in the stone age. There's no choice. It's a monopoly and a farce. They use price fixing to keep profits high and don't ever pass savings on to the consumer. This is capitalism.



Misconception. It was greedy leaders keeping profit for themselves (with assistance from CIA agents aimed at toppling "communism") that led to the fall of the USSR. Someone needs to remind the Republicans in America that you have to actually feed the poor or they will revolt.

Nobody is forcing you. You assume the costs by accepting a greater increase to your way of life. You think a majority of the world has access to these services on a daily basis? You expect everything and whine when you can't get it for as cheap as you want.

Ride a bike to work, buy a moped, walk, take city transport. I'm so sorry you can't arrive to work or live without gasoline. You NEED a house? Im going to assume you meant a shelter. Livable and safe is subjective, do what it takes. You HAVE to have a phone? Write a letter. Do I need to say anymore on this?
