Its funny, Fairpoint has all this cash to waste on marketing and none to spend on actually running their business and they wonder why they are failing?
Maybe bankruptcy filings should be for Chapter 7, not 11. -- Blagojevich / Madoff 2012! |

 | They are just doing what they have learned from the free markets. You know, the bankers that stole TRILLIONS of dollars, yet get a bailout. Why, because the banking industry has very good lobbyist. The key to success in the US is not a good product, but good lobbying. -- The happiest countries are the most secular.
