it difficult to blame the companies if they did slow down roll out. The companies,
after all, have a duty to shareholders to pursue maximum profits not

the market as forces in telecommunications can be misleading. Telephone
companies, for example, get billions of dollars in federal and state subsidies
for rural service. <span> </span>Access charges are
designed to compensate network providers for the use of their facilities and
the compensation scheme is in part funds universal service.<span> </span>Additionally, these companies may be claiming

politically on the basis of public interest.<span>

access since the avoidance of access is, at least in part, the source of their
