let's just be clear. that is due to government and i want to combat this very problem

The reason the government interfered and created these monopolies is the same reason we don't have duplicate power lines (except for redundancy) and water lines. It was understood somewhat early on that having multiple phone and cable lines running everywhere was unnecessary and wasteful, especially considering the likelihood that these competing companies would merge sooner or later anyway. I typically don't like government involvement, either, but in cases of massive infrastructure it can be necessary.
