It’s “savings” when you cut back $27 million in free gubbermint phones to $24 million? And I presume that doesn’t count all the new users who will join the party.
“The program in Ohio cost $26.9 million in the first quarter of 2012...versus $15.6 million in the same timeframe in 2011,...[with] the number of people in the program nearly doubled to more than a million.”
Just think of all the money they can save if they double the users again!
