Re: Total B.S. With attitudes such as yours, certainly the USF will not go away anytime soon but if enough people write and phone their elected representatives we can turn this around eliminating this tax. It is time to make our voices heard in Washington, wealth redistribution is simply wrong. I am taking my own advice and doing just that contacting all of my elected representatives and a letter to the FCC. Oh and have a great Thanksgiving Day  |

Oh and have a great Thanksgiving Day I rather deal with REAL situations and not waste time day dreaming about utpoian ones. You solution is a do nothing because if we wish hard enough things will change one day. And they won't and in 10 years you'll still be griping about waste. You want to get from poitn A to point Z without going through points B-Y. It doesn't work that way. |

1 edit | Wrong, where in my post did I mention sitting back and dreaming (wishing) for change? Being proactive in contacting elected officials does work, take for instance the following example; Congress this past summer was just about to pass sweeping new legislation that would have granted illegal aliens status, issuing "Z" Visa's and granting amnesty, millions of concerned, informed voters across the country, representing the full political spectrum did in fact phone, write and fax their elected representatives resulting in this bad piece of legislation to fail in the final vote tally. I am some what mystified that people are not willing to expend the energy and time necessary to effect change, they just want to "go along" not making waves whatever is currently popular not necessarily what is right.
I find that laws that allow for the taxation of citizens in order to give money to another group to be both unethical as well as unconstitutional. There is no need for the USF tax and we need to do everything we can to eliminate this tax which is a worthy goal which is precisely what I am doing. Thanks for your feedback, please enjoy a nice Thanksgiving Day holiday with your family and friends. |
