| Tired of the vagueness I get tired of all the vagueness that goes on here. Qwest rejected the first round funding; they say it's because the conditions make it a bad business decision. Maybe someone should contact management and ask which particular conditions were objectionable. Anyone interested in finding what all the terms and conditions are that companies have to agree to?
And why aren't there some sort of public meetings with all the stake holders -- customers in underserved/unserved areas, government officials, Qwest management? It makes little sense to have a stimulus plan for which carriers may apply if they all end up turning it down; and just the same if it doesn't service to those customers it was supposed to help. At the same time, as a taxpayer, I want to see some strings attached so that companies don't just take the money and run. |
