kathy,

This program is nothing more than buying votes for Obama. Every welfare queen recipient generations long will have one like they get everything else, at working people's expense.
It is called wealth redistribution. Nothing new about it. Socialism at its finest under the guise of only the poor get one.

This is utter nonsense. There is no demonstrated need for a freaking cell phone anywhere.

Anyone ever hear of doing without things you cannot afford? Hell, for three years after my wife and I were married we sat on orange crates in our apartment because we could not afford to go buy furniture and I wasn't going to go into debt. My parents finally bought us a used 12 year old sofa to sit on.

Cell phones at taxpayer and every other cell phone user's expense.

Great. What will the libs come up with next????

But, but, it SOUNDS like such a humane project............ It FEELS good.

If you want to buy every dead beat in the country a cell phone, get out yer own wallet and pay for it yourself LIBS. Call it charity. Remember, you all claim to be the party of compassion.

Here's a chance to put your money where your MOUTHS are at.

OR, is this going to be just like Warren Buffet, a BIG LIE saying one thing and doing something entirely different?

Libs are like teats on a boar hog, absolutely useless.

Do you have a link for that commercial?

Going back just a couple of years, the elderly, retired folks got RECYCLED phones, which they could only use for 911.

This SafeLink phone is for "income eligible." You may qualify if you are a recipient of food stamps or Medicaid - in other words, low income.

While the present-day elderly probably ARE eligible, they are more than likely not going to get one. The remaining "elderly" remember the Great Depression. They are generally too proud to take ANYTHING from the government.

How to Qualify

The process to qualify for Lifeline Service depends on the State you live in. In general, you may qualify if...
1.You already participate in other State or Federal assistance program such as Federal Public Housing Assistance, Food Stamps and Medicaid.
OR

2.Your total household income is at or below of the poverty guidelines set by your State and/or the Federal Government.
AND

3.No one in your household currently receives Lifeline Service through another phone carrier.
4.You have a valid United States Postal Address. In order for us to ship you your free phone you must live at a residence that can receive mail from the US Post Office. Sorry, but P.O. Boxes cannot be accepted.

In addition to meeting the guidelines above you will also be required to provide proof of your participation in an assistance program, or proof of your income level.

=============== IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD A CELL PHONE, YOU CANNOT HAVE ONE.

PERIOD!!
