The "whole segment of society" who profit from this kind corruption are the rich and the well-connected, not the working poor and those unable to work. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16622215 Tue, 01 Aug 2006 15:29:49 EDT Re: Are we mad yet?? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16622214 mr sean :

The USF is nothing but another wasteful government welfare program that is rife with corruption. Those abusing it should be investigated and prosecuted, including Powell. But in any case, the USF should be terminated. That would give every household in the US a lower telephone bill each month.
Yikes!!
I must be running a fever...I agree with you on this one.

Or it could just be a sign of the last days...

We need to terminate this illegal tax and any other illegal tax and stop federal welfare. These programs are just enabling programs, creating more beneficiaries looking for a federal handout. We've managed to create a whole segment of society that does not know how to be productive their only claim is to file claims seeking additional monies from those who do work hard. Stop the fraud, waste and abuse end these taxes and the programs they are suppose to support.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16621119 Tue, 01 Aug 2006 12:44:36 EDT Re: Are we mad yet?? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16621015 tsu9 : Yes. But, you don't kill a program due to corruption. You remove the corruption from the program.

It's a tall order, but nobody ever said reigning it in was easy. However, it does need to be done, or else it'll just fester and shift around to new "good thing" projects that don't deserve the abuse.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16621015 Tue, 01 Aug 2006 12:29:55 EDT Re: Are we mad yet?? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16620956 KrK :

I don't agree that it should be terminated, but rather, actually run correctly. It's a "Good Thing™" that just happens to be overrun with corruption--wipe that corruption clean, and you have something beneficial.
Yeah, but that same thing could be applied to just about every major Government Department or program, including the Military, Social Services, Department of Housing and Urban Development, USDA, etc etc

I think everything starts out as a "good idea" and then gets corrupted and becomes extremely wasteful. I guess I really shouldn't limit it to Government, either. Lot of big business is the same way.
