Toll calls have always been charged for at a higher rate, again well above cost, in order to subsidize basic local service
Wait just a minute...is your local phone company (you know, the one who sends you your bill every month) named AT&T? Sprint? MCI? Then you aren't paying your local phone company for long distance service, are you? Explain to me how my local phone company profits from my long distance use (other than the fee paid by the long distance provider for the SERVICE of providing long distance over the local telco's wire)? None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. End of discussion.
