Re: Where does USF benefit? said by neftv:I never heard of anyone who benefited from the USF. I don't want to see a USF web site that says who conceptually benefits, I want to see names of people or companies who benefited. Read Bob61571's link, it lists several names of the people who rehave benefited from the USF, in the form of free cell phones and service.
I don't know what bugs me more, telco's pocketing the cash, or a bunch of lazy asses getting free cell service on top of their free food and reduced rate housing.

| The last paragraph in that article says you don't have to be poor to get the free cell phone you just have to be already helped by the government.
So I am unemployed and getting unemployment can I get subsidy for my Blackberry phone and data on AT&T (which I am paying for now)? I'm in PA though.
If my Congressman actually replies to my inquiry about the USF I am going to ask him for help. I may as well get some of that money back too while I am unemployed, less for the Telcos to pocket the money. Even that is so un-policed how do they know that the Telco is really putting it what they suppose to because I am sure the got bright CPA's that work on that.
This really pisses me off now that I read that article. Like having a driver license is a privilege not a right. And I am thinking Cell Phone is a "luxury" item not a necessity. I can see the home phone being needed. I better stop. |
