They know this company is going to have huge debt, yet they are making requirements for them not to raise prices, and in some cases lower them...
cuz the average income in Maine is rather low... However, i also question the wisdom of the plan... it was noted that the deal would need an additional $100M cut from the sale price for it to work for Fairpoint... so what was the "aggreement"???... NOT to cut the sale price at all... and I saw no mention of all the tax write-offs and forgiveness for fees and penalties due to for the state that Verizon was demanding...

They'll do what K-Mart did: file bankruptcy and the year later buy another company.
