$50 here for Charter. I can't wait for the two page letter that will follow explaining the "increase" in terms a consumer can "understand", i.e. not tell them about the true pork barrel nature of the USF.

| said by richardpor:Only people are getting richer are the government bureaucrats. That's what your local thieving telco would like you to think. Many of the "taxes" aren't. FCC Subscriber Line Charge? Not a tax. Most of the line items aren't. And no one seems to have any record of where the USF dollars go; from what I can gather the telco is the party that decides where that cash ends up. Of course we can trust that it's ALL going to rural POTS service, right?  |

| Oh so are you going to tell me that some how government passes a law to allow Telco’s to take a little more money from the customer and spend it any way the company wants?
Hey Gus I know politics. There are plenty way government beat around the bush in raising taxes. One-way is not to call it a tax but a fee. |
