WHY DOES EVERYONE SAY "THATS WHY THE PRICES ARE THE WAY THAT THEY ARE" BULL****. IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY THE PRICES DROP WHEN THE **** HIT THE FAN WITH CROWN AND CHARTER. CHARTER BEING ACCUSED OF PADDING THE BOOKS A LITTLE ON DISCONNECTS. ADELPHIA GOING BANKRUPT AND AT@T SELLING OUT ALL IN A SHORT TIME TOGETHER. THEN IT BECOMES A SIMPLE FACT OF ECONOMICS. A SURPLUS OF WORKERS WITH NOT ENOUGH WORK TO GO AROUND. PEOPLE AND COMPANIES NEEDED WORK TO SURVIVE SO THEY DROP THERE RATES. CABLE IS LITTERED WITH PEOPLE WHO DO NOT DO A GOOD JOB BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DO GOOD WORK AND ACT VERY PROFESSIONAL ABOUT THERE JOB. SOME PEOPLE STILL TAKE PRIDE.
