It’s really simple, the broadband companies literally fund whatever party is in power and hire armies of lawyers to write laws that then get passed so they never have to compete in the market.
Then they literally brag about being against capitalist competition to their investors and insiders.
The idea that you can create public competition against a private monopoly with an unlimited money printing machine who then bribe politicians (both parties) to pass laws to underwrite or outright fund their infrastructure…
I mean look at least Elon bought twitter right? Lol
