Fighting for Consumer Fairness

The Town of Foxboro is currently in negotiations with Comcast. As most of you are aware, Comcast is currently the sole cable provider for Foxboro, which greatly limits it's resident's choices for telecommunications services.

As a resident of Foxboro I have witnessed the unjustified rate increases that Comcast has imposed on its customers. This business practice is tantamount to a monopoly and is dangerously close to violating the Antitrust Laws that are in place to protect consumers from unfair and unwarranted price fixing.

I am asking you help fight this injustice. I have started a petition online that I intend to submit to the Town of Foxboro Board of Selectmen. Below is the link to the petition. I ask that you please read it and decide if you'd like to help bring competition and fair pricing to Foxboro, and thus send a message to other communities that "business as usual" is no longer acceptable. The petition can be found at: http://www.petitiononline.com/foxcable/petition.html

Please pass forward this to any resident of Foxboro, or of Massachusetts, so our voices can heard. In these tough economic times we as consumers need options that will us control our expenses. Competitive pricing is one of those options.Together, we can bring that to our local communities.
