First off the problem is that America does not have true Capitalism, you have Government allowed monopolies in many places that prevent competition. Plus you have regulations treat one provider of information vs. another... FCC rules on Cable vs. Phone lines vs. Cell
A large Company like AT&T/ Time warner, etc can lobby to get Government (FCC) to grant them things that their competition can not get or make it so a competitor can not enter their market.
Example: For a while the FCC force Ma Bell companies to sell access to last mile lines at their cost to maintain, while this was in effect you seen more Independent phone and DSL providers popping up. Now since that rule is no longer in effect, they raised the price so many of these providers could not compete. Now they the competition has been shut out, the cost of internet access has went up.
You want lower prices on cable/phone/internet, write you Congress person about making regulation fair across the board and open access again.
