Ever wonder how supposedly "poor people" seem to have great cellphones.... and be talking on them all the time? Ever wonder how the Flash Mobs have cellphones that let them all get together via text messages and "mob-rob" stores?
It's very simple. You and I are paying for the phones, and the airtime!
All a person has to do to get FREE cellphone service is be on food stamps, Medicaid, government housing, free school lunches, or a whole raft of other free government programs. There is no other qualification required, and we pay the whole bill!
If this sounds "too bad to be true", click on the above link or http://www.ihatethemedia.com/cell-phones-for-the-homeless-scam for all the details.
While you are wondering about the billions of dollars this is costing us each year to give free cellphone service to people too lazy to work, just stop and think; do think Obama and the DNC will use these phones to contact voters in the 2012 general? Do you think Obama might send them free text messages to get them to vote and/or donate?
It's NOT free. We pay a Mexican company to provide the service and probably 90% of the recipiants are Obama voters!
Want to balance the budget? Stop this idiocy!
It just never ends.
and stop with the hoverround at no cost to you.....
I don’t have texting because I can’t afford it after paying my taxes.
It can.....
Why that means.... taxpayers are subsidizing the Amish flash mobs’ cellphones.
And commercial-free radio and television to limousine liberals.
And commercial-free radio and television to limousine liberals.
Just what I was going to say -—
how will the flash mobs organize without free cell phones?
Bingo!
It’s a limited contract. http://www.fcc.gov/guides/lifeline-and-link-affordable-telephone-service-income-eligible-consumers
I hope it does!!
Good point but this would effect 0.000.000.000.041% of the debt.
Stop swatting flies and hunt the Buffalo.
YOU’RE NOT KIDDING!! How ASININE of OBAMA to threaten the “old people”, who he insults and deems weak and scared, threatening to hold up their Social Security checks.
Hold up these d*mn freeloaders’ free cellphones, and other freebies first. THEN we’ll talk about the sacrifices that the old people need to make after that.
I just wrote my Congressman a blazing e-mail to tell Mr. Boehner to HOLD THAT LINE !!!!
OBAMA must think we are stupid!!!
Free fast internet is next on Obie’s list
No - free computers/smartphones/Androids are next on the list. THEN the internet connections.
Don't forget - It's for the children! Think of all those disadvantaged children who will fall behind in school without the resources of the Internet! (Having them show up at school with clothes that cover their underwear, not "under the influence" and behaving like human beings would be my first goal - but hey, that's just me!).
It doesn't seem like flies when I see my account debited for my cell phone every month. More like pterodactyls.
I’m just a bit suspicious that the “flash mob” stuff is practice for election day Nov 2012.
Well it’s true. Minorities LOVE their phones and cannot put them down. And they can’t be bothered with watching where they’re walking; we’re supposed to jump out of their ways so they don’t slam into us.
