Gen. Alexander's warning signals a growing federal ... (need to pay WSJ for more)
People build glass houses and demand protection from raging bulls.
All these power companies could also save money by firing their security and safety personnel and asking the government to protect them from thieves and arsonists. Why is telecom different?
It's not, but its the nature of business to cut corners and shift costs. It's up to the people to say no.
What do you think?
