The $8-billion Universal Service Fund is paid for by telecommunications companies’———
Really? Because every month on my bill I have to pay the Universal Service fee fund...
It was mandated by goobermint and then the phone companies get to field the angry calls about “what’s this USF charge”...
Not to worry, you can apply for Telephone Assistance (TAP) and get all ,but your USF paid for by the same goobermint!!
