Bulgaria got a similar cartel deal with electricity: some of the lowest wages and the highest prices for electricity in Europe

One of the funnier examples of the Czech Telecommunications Authority’s thinking here was this little gem from about three years back. When asked why mobile data prices here were so outrageously expensive compared to the rest of the EU, the person in charge said (and this is a quote), “The reason for this is because unfortunately, most Czechs utilize free WiFi services at shopping centers or what have you, which causes mobile data prices to be high.”

LOL. I don’t know what kind of school of economics this person went to, but they certainly weren’t paying attention when the law of supply and demand was brought up. 😄
