"The president offers you free stuff, but his policies keep you poor. For those who are struggling, we want to you to have something infinitely more valuable than a free phone." - Sen. Rand Paul, Tea Party Response to the State of the Union
Conservative American,
Dead people don't just vote in elections, they also get "free" smart phones and free monthly minutes courtesy of the federal government and taxpayers.
It's shocking, but true.
In fact, millions of individuals are receiving co-called "free" government phones and phone plans - though as many as41% of the recipients can't even prove that they are even eligible to receive them.
A Missouri Senator was recently appalled to have received a solicitation for a free government cell phone at her apartment complex, which, she says, "is certainly not a building where you're going to have people who are qualified for free phones."
The so-called "free" government phones are courtesy of Lifelink, a federal program that was created during the Reagan administration to provide emergency land-line service for the poor and help them find jobs. Today, despite its origins, this federal give-away plan has become so full of fraud and waste that even Obama's FCC admits it.
