Ok - can we please try not to put down some thing that was created for families that cannot afford a phone and have young children at home or for people that are old and might need medical help when no one is around.... that which these funds are set up for.

I know a mother of three and she has one of these phone (as she cannot afford a phone and feed her children at the same time) - she works twelve hours shifts and this FREE PHONE helps her keep in touch with the babysitter when she is at work and her children are sick or have been hurt.

Lets look at the silver lining in this program and thank the government for helping those in needs.... and yes, even if it means we the people fund it though our taxes - - - - remember the day may come when you your self might need tax funded assistance.
