as far as trust busting.   For example:  There is no competition for my internet service.   I have 1 choice.  Because Comcast and time warner have colluded to not compete in the same markets.    The FCC doesn't do anything and almost let them merge.     ATT and Verizon have also divided up the map for TV bundled service.  They never compete.   .... Basically the gov is limiting competition in these cases.  

And women's rights is a weak choice.   But what has developed has been a hiring quota.   Which takes away opportunity to the most qualified candidate.   Which ironically is what the argument for this policy.   But by forcing women to be hired, admitted to univeristy you have taken away the opportunity of men who have paid their dies and were more qualified.    Is it right that women were over looked .  Ofc not.  But it's equally not right how men have suffered to "correct" the first problem.    Instead of letting women break through on their own merits.

Second:
Agreed. Because we stopped being progressive and started regressing. Now businesses can have monopolies for services provided they pay the government. Or, like in the case of ATT, get laws changed so you don't have to honor previous agreements that allowed you to build a monopoly. In that case, last year they got voters to deregulate them, so they would no longer have to provide a basic service to Kentuckians. Basically, so their "entry level" plan could be much higher. They told voters they wouldn't get rid of basic services in rural areas and charge more, but in one year alone they spent $165,000 on lobbyists.

Why would you spend $165,000 in one year unless you plan on making more than $165,000.

Third:
I was referring to a woman's right to vote and or hold public office. That doesn't have anything to do with hiring quotas.
