Americans are suffering in this prolonged economic depression. Many are unemployed or underemployed and are struggling to pay the mortgage and electric bill, yet their income taxes are being used to give away free cell phones to Obama supporters. The argument we hear is that they need these phones to find jobs. While we can be sympathetic to their unfortunate circumstances, perhaps a better solution would be to provide a dedicated phone line in their home until they can get back on their feet. The ability to communicate is important today, but it appears these cell phones are being used for drug deals and other illegal activities, and many people have been able to get more than one phone, which they sell to others. This is another program set up with good intentions but no oversight in place to track them to prevent abuses and misuses. One would think the sequester would have eliminated this program, but the president would rather cut back on air traffic controllers so we all feel the pain. Outrageous!
