Tracphone is owned by Slim out of mexico The worlds richest man.

He made money buying Telephono de Mexico from an RBOC named Southwestern bell that held a lot of it but not all. Southewestern Bell today is known as AT and T,

Dems of course subsidize foreign companies and jobs.

Fact check is a left wing propoganda site. Dems love them. Even when they told us the Hospital Obama was born in and on day checked the facts and switched hospitals taking anothe stab at guessing.

Fact check googles like the rest of you all.

Great system !
That's the thing about welfare and such, no system to stop the massive abuse that's going on.

Re: Gov giving freee cell phones!

any time you are giving away things ,, somebody is paying for it ,,its us ur tax dollars..

when will our gov wake up.?when you give things away like free money ,phones, groceries ,you teach people to be poor.

teach them to work ,its amazing how many people would get well ,if you cut off their check, so they had to work to eat.if they ddint work, they didnt eat,, i feel them getting well right now.

if my mom needed a cell i would pay for it ,which i did till she decided i like it ,i will pay for it ,,..she has more money than me lol. so i said go ahead ...

It's funny that conservative Christians opposition to the government helping the poor is probably going to be one of the main driving forces for microchips. I mean how else are they going to prove you really are who you say you are.

You don't understand even non biblical psychology. Reinforcing bad behavior causes bad behavior.

If you reward work, people work. If you reward people that don't work, they will continue maladaptive behaviors.

You don't see the problem neither does the gubment. Until the core problem is identified, there can't be a solution.

If libs practiced medicine, you would never walk without an electric cart or crutches.

In national parks we are told to not feed wild animals. It teaches them not to hunt.

I'm not in opposition to helping the poor. I'm opposed to funding the lifestyle of two and three generations of "victims" who are leaching off the hard working tax paying Americans. I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I know what it's like to work hard and just make ends meet. And I also know what its like to suffer because of poor choices that I made! McDonald's and Burger King are dying to give some of these people an opportunity to learn what it is to work hard and appreciate the value of the dollar. Poor people want help? They can get a part time job and fill out a FAFSA. "Nah bro, my benefits will be cut."

bad attitude. I know some incredibly wealthy people. I know some people that live poorly and dress shabby and are loaded with money because they are frugal. They are too cheap to go to ordinary restaurnats. One of my employes has gone 20 years never ordering a beverage at a restaurant. she saves money.

We need to be alert to people that want to punish people that save pennies and take them for "poor" that are wasteful.

You want to punish good behavior which is living frugally and saving money.

In some ways this is theft. Taking money from people that earned and saved money and haveing the gubment do the theft is still theft.

The money belongs to the person that earned it. The thief wants to take money instead of earning it. He wants some one to take the money for him so he can't get in trouble.

Welfare doesn't solve problems.
