When obimbo held office, my cable internet went form fifteen a month, to sixty-two and fifty. The recent rate increase (effective March) kicked me up to a flat seventy-four. I can hardly blame Trump's tax plan for the largest percentage of rate increase(s).
I could go to AT&T, for around fifty. However, their speed is less than the 120 mbs per second, that I have. Moreover, they have data caps.
The old model was based upon cable television being their cash cow. As more and more subscribers have dumped television .... they're making up the difference where they have a complete, and total, monopoly.
