There is little vetting of phone program candidates.
I’ve walked right up to the Obamaphone sub-contractor poverty pimps at Costco and other Box stores and asked them what qualification proof you needed to say, get a phone for your elderly parent.
They were very dismissive of income and gov’t issued ID attestation evidence.
Just like urban vote registration and polling places.
It’s all a gimme dat version of the knockout game.
Whitey taxpayer bleed a lot.
That's going to leave a scar.
