Sounds like socialism. Sweden, home of Ericsson, had the worse cell service in the 90's. Their CEO stated they make more profits outside of Sweden. Those areas got the latest technology.

Socialism did not work in the Soviet Union or Cuba, but let's keep trying here in the U.S. Our government knows better, huh?
