    Data plans have already gotten more expensive since the merger was announced, and it's not even approved yet. The situation will only get worse.

    We need T-Mo, ATT, Sprint, and Verizon vying for our business to keep competition in the market. They have already proven that 4 carriers can build out a nationwide infrastructure.
