| Re: Your Kidding , right? The USF Fund that pays for Schools and Libraries is okay, but not for Telcos in BFE.
One rural telco got so much money it rebated customers their phone bill for a year plus a little extra.
Another telco used the USF to fund DSL and Cell Service. If no USF, they never could have done it.
Forbes did a study and found 99% of Rural Telcos DID NOT need USF money to make a profit!
All the RBOCs are lobbying to end the USF. | |

When was the last time you heard about ANY telephone company not making a profit lol. (I'm talking REAL telcos, not vonage)
