Those states authorized it, hopefully it will only come out of their state taxes.

He's saying state taxpayers as opposed to Uncle Sam (as the OP mentions), who would be the rest of us Federal taxpayers.

The PUC's who allowed this should all be fired. Most of the public opposed this yet the states still allowed it to happen

Re: Time for Uncle Sam to bail FairPoint out.

Why? Because a power supply in a 9-1-1 center went bad? That's dumb.

Transitions always have issues and this delay in the transition to FairPoint is all of a whopping 60 days. Hardly the end of the world.
