Seems like the US telecom industry is ripe for some major disruption. What if a company comes in and start treating its customers right? They'll have millions eager to sign up. Or at least that's how capitalism was explained to me at highschool.

Being ethical was neither the main catalyst/competitive edge nor the implication of capitalism. You stay on top in a capitalistic market by being competitive, not by being ethical.

Whoever taught you that pro-capitalism ideals in high school was just as delusional as the person who taught me the pro-socialism ideals in high school -- if not more. At least I believe most people who recite all the pro-socialism ideals in socialist countries are well aware that they are bullshit but just doing it for the money and safety.
