Reasons To Disagree

Gummint has no legitimate place in business.

Plenty of scope for competition here. Government just needs to encourage competition by making the environment a little less favourable to telecom

 

Reasons To Agree

The lines only, something similar to transpower

Government should own holes in the ground, the existing coper network and exchanges and should make a decent effort to increase the amount of alternative cables to homes. However, the digital tolls and added services on those lines can easily be provided by competing retail businiesses by sharing space in the exchanges or virtually from data centers. Now would be a good time for the government to acquire those assets as telecom shares are fairly worthless from their near $9 high a few years ago.

Reasons for Remain Neutral

No reasons have yet been given to remain neutral.
