*Especially* since the *reason* they have a monopoly is that the government 
passed laws *giving* them a monopoly.

If there were actually ten or twenty competing high-speed ISPs from which to 
chose, your position might make sense. When the government says "Sorry, TW 
won the bid, you don't get to run any connectivity here", it seems perfectly 
reasonable to use the same government to make TW behave in a fair manner.
