Yes, and we would be much better at it. While they are fighting each other like rats trying to get into the store for their 0bama Phones we would be in a loan officer's office filling out paperwork for subsidized loans to flip houses.
Poverty is a mindset not some external force that holds people down.
Im a stay-at-home mom of two little ones and the TV is often on during the day. Theyve been running a commercial here in Florida for about a year now, advertising a free phone and calling plans. Reading the fine print on the ad, you MUST be on food stamps, welfare, disability or unemployment to receive this phone. It is Sprint-based and comes with hundreds of free minutes and texting!
Im outraged every time I see this commercial. Glad to know we pay over $100/month for ours when we could get one for free if my husband would just sit on his butt on the couch all day. Sigh...
