Good Morning,

I have a question and a request. First the question. I know Time Warner Cable is regulated by the FCC, But does anyone regulate Direct TV and Dish. Every year Direct T.V. has a price increase of $ 5 to $10. Personally, I think they don't need these increases and are price gouging the customer. When they get any kind of competition, They just buy the other company out that creates a monopoly. Time Warner Cable is the same way. They are just about the only one who offers High speed internet in the area, which also creates a monopoly. Is there anyway, that would could have more competition with these two companies in the state without allowing them to buy everyone out and thus create a monopoly. Can the government use anti-Trust laws to break this up and, if these laws can be used why are we using them? Next' I would strongly recommend that Direct T.V and Time Warner Cable be more closely regulated. It seems to me like both companies can charge, whatever; prices they want and no one does anything. Do you have any solutions for this problem. Looking forward to your reply

Thanks

Paul Watson
