AT&T is an utter shithole company and I hope those union workers get everything and more from them.

AT&T should be nationalized, fixed, regulated properly, then sold back to the private sector. Verizon too.

They are both absolutely corrupt and run by trash people who hurt workers and customers.

Not even sold back. We need just one national telecom provider to ensure that everyone gets the required minimum of service. It's up to the private sector to offer better deals or better service, but the government should provide a minimum level of connectivity for everyone.
