"The Federal Communications Commission should get out of the business of
creating broadband regulations and only step into an enforcement role  
when
customers complain about service, a Verizon executive said Wednesday.
Tom Tauke, Verizon's executive vice president for public affairs,  
policy and
communications, called on the FCC and Congress to create an "updated  
role"
for government in telecommunications regulation, particularly for rules
related to broadband Internet access and services that run over  
broadband."

That seems really funny coming from a company that has been on the  
receiving
end of every largesse it can receive.

I counter with: break it up into wholesale / retail companies

Thank you.
