Several years ago the morons running NH managed to drive Verizon outa here by raising telecom taxes so we'll never get FIOS as a competitor to hold Comcast in check. Verizon was actually thrilled to bail because the lower than MA population density makes it more expensive to provide service in cowhampshire. Verizon's replacement, bottom tier Fairpoint will never have a competitive service.
Comcast uber alles!

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck." RAH
