I thought you were joking about the “free” cell phones until I heard an ad today in Seattle advertising the same program. Just as you said, it states that if you are a welfare recipient, you are “entitled” to a taxpayer funded phone. So we not only get the privilege of paying for the ads, we get the privilege of paying for the “free” cell phones. Ah, yes, how “poor” are American poor people.
