In LBJ's Great Society, the great "war on poverty," we gave 'em delux apartments in the sky to live in. Those apartment buildings no longer exist. They were torn down after they were turned into total garbage heaps by the freeloaders. If a person doesn't want to work for what they get, they aren't really human. They don't develop pride. You should feel sorry for them not because they are poor, but because they don't care. And you shouldn't help 'em if they don't care.

Sorry too many zeros 411.6 Million still a ton of money

Wow just took spursrule number of $41.16 A yr payed into the universal service fee/tax(what ever).and if you figure 100 million paying customers out there it works out to being something like $4.1 billion a yr worth of this b s tax.

Just a Question here,WHY does little miss Crack dealer here need 6 phones.That all work According to her.

That doesn't suprise me that the eastside kind of people are the ones abusing the free phones.

Wheres the news article about SEQUESTRATION cuts on this nonsense? Yeah again, time to cut.

I'm sorry, I don't care who you are, cell phone service is a luxury and not a birth right. This nonsense is puke-worthy.

@metalhead that is not a government funded phone..Im sure your company pays earned money for it.

okay WOAI im angry!! so now what? I do NOT want to pay for lazy peoples free cell phones!! Tell me what to do and I'm there!!!!

When is the government going to learn. You cannot give goods and services to people, epsecially lowlifes. They will find a way to abuse it and in turn cost us law abiding citizens more out of our pocket. I just read that Federal law prohibits more than one free line per household. To me its time to fine the cell providers and cut off all extra lines.
