I think if Bernie or Hillary get Elected POTUS I will explore every Gibsmedat Program the Government offers to see if I can qualify.

It will become my new Career. I’m tired of pulling the Cart. Might be time to hop in and enjoy the Ride to Armageddon.

Cause it’s a massive shakedown. Plain and simple.

I finally gave up on resisting enrolling in SNAP because my current job pays so poorly and new jobs are so godd@mn nonexistent. A man can only pull for so long...now instead of ~$60 a month for food I have $300. And I’m a single WASP, for crying out loud. Might as well use it to stockpile nonperishables for the inevitable...now to find a job paying cash to buy guns...

I think every hard-working person has that fantasy. I’m always amazed when the moms who I know are not employed or employed & not making a lot come to the school w/ phones the size of a doll house door. Until you work in the private sector you have NO idea of all the freebies out there.

I recently told daughter to get everything she can. We paid for it and are still paying even more since we retired. We’ll never get a dime of it so she might as well.

I really don’t see all the poor folks with Obama phones. I see them with I phones, Samsung 5 or 6. My phone currently has a crack in the screen, leaking on the screen, out of contract with sprint now and was looking for a new phone and about had a heart attack. 500-700 for a freaking phone. And I make great money and I just am having a hard time paying that for a phone.

Just not sure what to do. I was looking at straight talk but there are good and bad reviews.

I take that paying customers pay for the service.

Virgin Mobile has unlimited talk, text and data for about $40 a month. If you’re lucky, you can find a phone on sale.

No, you might not have the super-phone but mine plays videos, has a nice screen, long battery life. My Tracfone is a backup rarely used. It worked in some places in Whereami, Kansas where the Virgin couldn’t.

I was behind a lot of them in Whereami, Kansas, with kids, no guy seeming around, paying with checks that didn’t look like personal accounts.

All while working a job that was never intended to actually last.

Oh, and you can find the Virgin Phones discounted at Walmart, Best Buy and other places.

Good luck.

No doubt. It's always the same old story, a raised tax on providers means they just increase the price to pass it on down to everyone paying.

"FEE" my old aching ass.

You know the key to the fraud here is ones SSN.

These ‘gatekeepers’ or salespeople you get on the phone will probably make more commission of the sale of an Obama phone than what you wanted to buy.

What stops them, after they get your SSN, from turning around and using that ‘key’ to submit you for the govt subsidized ‘free’ service(s)??!?

I bet this goes on 1000’s of times a day.

Does it work in the subway? I often see minorities talking on their phones while riding the subway where no else has service of any kind.

I've wondered if an Obamaphone is designed to never be without service . . . just in case Obama needs to activate his zombie army.

I recommend Republic Wireless. In July, they will have 7 new phones. Service Plans start at $10 to $40 dollars.

Oh thank you for the recommendation. I will look into it. I currently have an HTC One 8- but had it for a two yrs. It was given to me by Sprint Manager because they couldn’t fix my old phone after 3 tries and 2 hours.

$500 - $700 for a phone?
Just picked up the new Samsung Galaxy J7 through TMobile... about 90% of the S7 features, for $240. Love it!
