Dear Editor:

There are a lot of apartment dwellers in Queens and the other boroughs, all victims of the Time Warner Cable monopoly, while homeowners have options like Time Warner, Dish, Direct TV, and Fios.

This is the 21st century, isn't it time we were rid of monopolies? I hope in this new year the City Council will consider forcing landlords to make these other options available to all tenants. Maybe the competition will force TWC to upgrade it's programming.

We need to make our representatives aware of this. Call them, write them, let

them know before the next election.

Sincerely,

Ralph Rivera

Elmhurst
