How exactly is what you are saying should be done any different than what is already being done? Noone has prevented any companies from competing with each other in individual states but there are great number of states with a single company that holds 80-90% of the market. What exactly do you think will happen over time if we only open up state lines? Those same monopoly companies will crush their competition and develop even larger monopolies. That argument is simply ridiculous on it's face.
