Let me clarify something for the ignorant masses,there are a lot of senior citizens and disabled people who would have no phone at all if it were not for this service.This program has been going on WAY before Obama or Bush was in office.We have been subsidizing telephone service for years in our monthly bill,only recently has it expanded to include cell phones in keeping up with the technology.And you do not get unlimited free time on it either,you have a choice of 250 minutes a month w/o rollover or 125 minutes with rollover.Once you use up what you get for the month you have to buy more time or go without it. I have a loved one who has worked all their life and recently became unable to work and without this service,they would have had no phone at all for emergencies.Considering the amount of money THEY paid into the system over so many yrs of working,they are not getting much. Is there abuse of this program?Hell yeah!There are Welfare deadbeats out there who sign up for multiple phones through this program and some sources estimate there are thousands of fraudulently issued phones,as the program only allows one per household. I just think before people run off the mouth about "Obama phones" they should know what they are talking about so they do not sound stupid to those of us with better sense.For every welfare chiseler who gets this service,there is someone like a disabled vet or fixed income senior who NEEDS this service.
To Cereal Poster: I understand the use for emergencies but does it take 125 or 250 minutes to dial 911 or the fire department or a ambulance. I do not think so people with these phones do not need that much air time each month at the taxpayers expense.This is abuse at all of our expense!!
All of us would like to know about these secret givaways that only a few people know about.This is just one of many most of us working people dont know about.
They use the free phones to order free crabs and shrimp with their free independence card and eat the free food in their government free housing,enjoy you worthless scum.
More useless spending and aimed to benefit one ethnic race if persons. Another reason our country is in such bad shape.

ReplyDelete911 calls don't require minutes or activation on a cell phone. it's free and always available so long as there is battery power and a signal.
