Natural monopolies exist for a reason. There is no reason to have six sets up copper on a pole delivering the same shit. Your argument that AT&T used regulation to prevent being sued has nothing to do with natural monopolies or regulation, it is simply and example of talented lawyers finding a solution to their problem within the greater scope of "rent seeking behavior." It was easier to limit their liability through regulation than being a better business.
As to " government specialized in correcting problems it created " that is the only possible logical approach to anything. The assumption that the free market or the government can do anything perfectly the first time and that it shouldn't continuously improved is insane. It is a fallacy that government is anything different than any other human endeavor, a pile of shit that stinks and need to be cleaned from time to time. The only reason the free market and business are seen as better is because you are unaware of the vast majority of cluster fucks that occur in business, you only become aware of success by its nature and so you have an unrealistic view of the market.
