Yep I remember all the great deals on phones and phone service you could get back when Bell was the only option. Good times. /s

Another problem with monopolies is that they atrophy so much that they can fail to even maximize their own profit.

And I didn't say you would get a great deal from a rational monopolist. I said that you would get tiered services that keep consumer surplus as low as possible.

But T-Mobile is not a monopoly.
