So ISPs are charging an arm and a leg, but they're saying others should pay? I'd love to be in a business where someone else pays for my business expenses and I keep the revenue.

ISPs are desperate to cling on, but they're really just going the way of cable. They didn't care to improve their infrastructure, so now they're fading into irrelevance as mobile data gets faster and more reliable.
