ObamaPhone Program Now $2.2 Billion as Millions Improperly Claimed Phones

Imagine that, millions of free-loaders are taking advantage of Obama’s wasteful spending, and now we are spending $2.2 Billion per year buying people free cell phones and cellular plans. I guess when they see Obama wasting Trillions of dollars lining the pockets of his friends and supporters, then why not get a little piece of the pie?

ObamaPhone Program Now $2.2 Billion as Millions Improperly Claimed Phones

Obama is hands down the worst president the US has ever had, but it seems that Obama wants to be remembered as the most corrupt and wasteful president of all time as well, and that’s cool. He is actually past the point of no return, so even if Obama wanted to become fiscally conservative, his wasted $6 trillion (and quickly rising) is like a boat anchor dragging him into the abyss.

The U.S. government spent about $2.2 billion last year to provide phones to low-income Americans, but a Wall Street Journal review of the program shows that a large number of those who received the phones haven’t proved they are eligible to receive

Free Obama Cell Phones & Monthly Service Cost Americans $1.6 Billion Per Year – Up From $772 Million in 2008

The government program called Lifeline, which was started back in 1998 to help low-income families get home phone service, was expanded under Obama’s great expansion of government to now provide free cell phones and free monthly service plans as well as home phone service, and watched as the price of the program ballooned from $772 million in 2008 to over $1.6 billion in 2012.

“A 2011 audit found that 269,000 wireless Lifeline subscribers were receiving free phones and monthly service from two or more carriers. ”
So not only is Obama giving each of these people cell phones and service for free, now he is giving many of them multiple free cell phones including free service for each.

$1.6 BILLION In Taxpayer Money Spent On Free Cellphones & Cellular Service For the Poor!

This is completely wrong!! LAST YEAR ALONE, our wasteful, brain-dead government, led by the weak, ultra-liberal, know-nothing Obama, spent $1.6 Billion to provide free cell phones and free cell phone service to the poor.

Why is the ability of the poor to make cellular phone calls a necessity that U.S. Taxpayers have to be stuck on the hook to pay for?

Many of us grew up when there were not many cell phones, and everyone was still able to call one another.
They may not have been able to talk on the phone while away from a land line, like when driving, but we did not all die because we didn’t have cell phones.

I don’t have Netflix, so maybe the government will pay for my Netflix account as well?? I’m not a liberal piece of crap though, so I seriously doubt it..

Last year, a federal program paid out $1.6 billion to cover free cell phones and the monthly bills of 12.5 million wireless accounts. The program, overseen by the FCC and intended to help low-income Americans, is popular
