If, say, Comcast had to lease their last mile, why wouldn’t they charge an arm and a leg to whoever was trying to sell internet? I don’t see how this would bring prices down meaningfully.
- rootusrootus 4y agoI assume regulation would set the price. AFAIK that's what we did with copper when we created CLECs.
- deepsun 4y agoIt's all solvable, as other countries example shows.
- Symbiote 4y agoThe law says they must lease to themselves at the same cost.
- michaelmrose 4y agoYou can practically regulate how this works by determining cost and markup. I mean most places have one power company for example and they aren't simply allowed to charge you whatever they please. In fact this was done years ago successfully. It was discontinued so cable companies could make greater profit.
