They charge the highest rates in the known universe for every type of service.

(And have what amounts to a monopoly on telecom, sports, news, and entertainment)

How are they in debt? (And why should I give any fucks ?)

Just another one of those amazing Conservative fantasies where failed private company after failed private company but they're still supposed to be so much more efficient than government ones.

And to top it off the myth of private companies being ran poorly not costing the public. Because when these guys start failing and threaten our national infrastructure they're going to ask for "hand outs" on top of the ones they already get.
