I think anyone who receives welfare should not be allowed to have cell phones.

A few years ago I might have agreed with that statement, but these days cel phones are dirt cheap and cheaper than having a land line. You can get a cel phone in wal-mart for 20 bucks and use it for about 25 a month. The iphones and blackberrys are a totally different animal than the run of the mill cel phone and I would agree with you if you were singling them out specfically

A few years ago I might have agreed with you if the phone gave them access to job interviews and 911. But I suspect if you look at the call details 95% of the minutes are being used for drug deals, booty calls and ordering takeout.
