well i think thats good to give free cell phones for kids thats about13-17 if u get welfare or not.food stamps not cash bcause theyre able to get there own.theres people tryin to get this phone and already got one give them to the needy not just anybody who wants it.
Because I work hard for my money, you want some because you feel I may make to much and you don't make as much, and thus your perfect world everyone should have an even playing field. Why do " Righties " contribute the most in charities then the " Lefties " ? Hmmmm Google that one. Oh yes . It is true. Why don't you see how much the evil dick cheney aka darth vader actually donated to charities Vs. Our own dumb as big mouth Biden ? Go ahead....Google it. Don't you see how left ways kills the human spirit. It causes people to be lazy and dependent on gov. Why get up off your ass ? Why invent ? Why work harder than the next Joe to get ahead when I'm going to be taxed higher when I make more. Why did unemployment go down when Clinton cut welfare ? Go google that smart ass. This country was built on the backs of struggle. Life is a struggle. Just because we live in America does that mean that we are entitled ? When I'm jobless, I bust my ass. Man. I bit the freak streets, knock on doors, make a living. Save , and move on. Hard times are part of life. We're bless to live in a place where we CAN , LET ME REPEAT WE CAN move on and get ahead slowly but surely. Other countries and not even remotely close, with hyper inflation, gov corruption to levels not scene here , mass killings in streets, limited liberties. It's time people got back to grass roots. Milton Friedman
style. Leave things alone, they will fix themselves. Don't mess with the formula that created this country. The founders of this country would truly be ashamed if they saw what the left has done so far. This is why we left and revolted against England in the first place. You want to talk struggle? Those people struggled. Who said life was easy?
*yawn*
Why is it that so many of you are nothing more than clones, spouting out the same nonsensical garbage? I swear, I've been reading this forum on/off for a few years now and I grow tiresome reading these idiotic, judgmental posts, written by people who 1) have nothing better to do and 2) love to pass judgment on others from their ivory towers, to make themselves feel "special".

Yep, you're special alright.
Special is not the right word. I believe "Right" is much better. Maybe it keeps being said because it's true.
Noticed your join date is Dec 09. Hanging around for years, yeah right. Another drive by Lib.

A drive by lib? LMAO...that's a new one. Did it ever occur to you that I might have just READ these forums for a long time, without contributing? Of course not....everyone who disagrees with you is "a liberal" or something
The US is has a lot in common with Nazi Germany in the 1920's. People there wanted scapegoats - those scapegoats were the Jews. In the case of the US, it's liberals or Mexicans. The hatred is already here. If a strong leader were to come along and galvanize that hatred, we'd really be in trouble.
i can agree that most of these programs are wasteful, but this doesnt strike me as one of the worst. the phones are cheap and come with limited minutes. i think this is most useful for people that actually might need it, not much use for a welfare abuser, they would probably spring for a flashier phone.
government cost is probably minimal too, i wouldn't be surprised if the carrier picks up most of the cost of the phones, because they are getting customers who will almost definitely purchase more minutes. but these days you can get a cell phone for 10 bucks, hell you can get unlimited from cricket for $25, so why even spend any tax dollars?
If you actually take time to go and READ about the program you will find that it is in NO way related to president Obama nor is it funded by tax payers. It states that phone companies charge lower rates for people with lower incomes...Also, just because you are born in a more educated family, or are given more opportunities, or have gifts from God that help you to be successful does not mean that you are better than anyone else in this world. We are all humans, we all deserve to lead good lives. Mind your own business. This has nothing to do with you. And poor people are humans too. Why should they have to suffer just because they are poor? Those who listen to the cries of the poor and do nothing shall be treated the same way. Have a heart.
Completely ridiculous. Cell phone is a luxury item and these welfare losers get a free cell phone? This has got to stop!
Obviously you haven't been effected by this "phantom" recession. The way you stereotype, I'm sure you believe it's exactly that... "phantom". Do you realize or even care how many people are out of work. Have you done anything to help? Or do you just complain all the time. Look... I'm sure there are people that are getting things they don't deserve. Happens all the time. But you are way out of line. I NEVER thought I would EVER need Public Assistance. But hey... things happen. Especially since the previous administration was so greedy AND incompetent.
