It used to be that the "market" dictated what the price would be. Now it's just unbridled greed. The ISP folks now even out their prices like the gasoline companies of old. Such fierce competition! /s

    I don't get how it's sarcasm if you seem to genuinely subscribe to the idea that market forces ever determined the prices of necessities. Did you just mean the last bit about competition was sarcastic? Wouldn't that mean the opposite is assumed to be the appropriate value?
