I understand that generations of regulators that wanted to maintain the status quo followed the logic:
Something must be done!
This is something we can all agree on.
This must be done!
I also think an insightful leader can propose actions that disrupt the status quo and leave the world a better place.
I posit that the internet would not have been able to take-off the way it did if the DOJ had not successfully broken up AT&T. Remember there used to be exactly one company who owned the phone lines running into your house and across the country. Since they owned the wires they decided what equipment you could hook onto their wires - which happened to be only equipment they sold and installed.
