Ernest Spoon Is wrong about Boomers breaking up AT&T; it was The Greatest Generation’s turn at bat. The leading edge of the Boomer wave was in their early Thirties; the bulk still in their Twenties. Power then was mostly held by those in their Fifties or older, the one’s who won WWII and thought they couldn’t make a mistake. Boomers have made many mistakes of their own, but this wasn’t one of them. Look instead to the execs of companies that wanted to complete with AT&T on a level field, like MCI, and those who thought they would make money backing the competitors. They in fact won, but you could make a case the consumer lost.
