Fewer than one in ten American families have fast Internet access, and the slow deployment has badly damaged e-commerce companies. Congress is moving to try to fix the problem, but Jim Glassman believes it may instead establish a monopoly that will only make it worse.
Glassman maintains the broadband crisis has badly damaged the economy, and the only sensible alternative — even for a fanatic free-market advocate like him — is to break up the Bells.
