They were lucky. They could have diode.
What the fuck are you talking about? Our system has six major players and is still shit with double digit price increases every year and poor customer service. It's like a government utility except any profits made leave the country.
Cheaper relative to economies that are serious about tackling pollution problems perhaps but when bills go up by 15% a year and profits rocket for you to then say that there is no gouging going on is naive to say the least. I'm also not keen on subsidising French and German energy customers either. Any profits gained from a system that was paid for by British taxpayers should be used for the benefit of British taxpayers.
They are regulated heavily because when they were first privatised they hiked prices enormously and the government of the time had to take action to stop them screwing their captive market.
Pre-privatisation they didn't charge VAT on fuel or for environmental and social obligations and the network was also owned by the state rather than by the Germans so you can remove all those from your calculation. What costs were hidden and subsidised? From what I remember the utilities made quite a lot of money for the state and should not have been sold off at all, or at least for a great deal more money than they were.

I don't see the full source for OS X on there funnily enough which was my point. Point me to the full source of Windows or Office or SQL Server.
Huge collections? Where's the source for Windows, Office or OS X. I know they have open source projects but their main products are exactly as the FSF has stated.
All the utilities have been privatised in the UK. One thing that didn't happen was prices going down. In fact they've been rising way beyond the rate of inflation ever since.
India is well known for its lack of corruption.

Fair enough. I live in Birmingham so Virgin Cable at 152Mbps is available in most of the city and LTE isn't going to be matching that any time soon.
Really? In what country? My current ISP gives me 38Mbps down and 10Mbps up and there are far faster options than that here in the UK. My HSPA+ connection on the other hand just about hits 2 down 0.5 up. I'm getting a 4G phone next week but I'm not expecting a vast difference.
