I don't get it.

Maybe they think they'll make more money if they charge people more? It is a business, you know...

It’s a dishonest business. He ran an honest one. That’s probably why he doesn’t get it.

Sort of like the government taxing you more to make more money..

For my 3000 or so rural customers, it would have cost more to administrate the plans, adjust the speeds, vary the billing, etc..... than we would have made. It was overhead we couldn't afford for the ROI.

We had a solid business plan. We took in more than we spent. We provided a service that customers couldn't get anywhere else. We didn't waste any motion on trying to squeeze the last ounce of blood out of the turnip.

Good gig until we sold out.
