Re: Don't you mean said by hottboiinnc:And if these 2 states block the deal there VZ could just file and abandon the network and WA and OR would be SOL. It doesn't work that way with regulated public utilities. If Verizon abandons the network the states will take it over and sell it to someone else. Out of the proceeds of such a sale will come the states' expenses before Verizon sees a dime. Not only should all regulators in all the states reject the Verizon-Frontier deal but after Hawaii and New England any regulators who approve it should be investigated and prosecuted for corruption! |
