This woman is not only stupid she should be the Poster Girl for American Public Education. Not a dime to Teachers UNIONS!

Ohio, America needs a real change - not another four years of this nonsense.

Before they tell me about eliminating ineligble recipients, perhaps someone can explain why anyone is eligble for a cell phone at my expense.

“I am unable to have a cellphone and I need one for emergencies,” said Aliesa Azbill of Dayton, who is in a work training program at Community Action Partnership. She said the 250 free minutes she gets per month through SafeLink isn’t enough to use it for much more than emergencies. How much time is 250min? 4 hours? She has 4 hours of emergencies each month?

[Wiser now]

This woman has so many emergencies that 250 minutes per month aren’t enough?

[databoss]

Ohio is the lynchpin in the electoral map....game, set, match team Obama....brilliant move its over before the first is cast....

[madison10]

Bribes.

[Revolting cat!]

I want my iPhone 6 too!

[manic4organic]

They haven’t “saved” any money. They’re just maybe pissing away a little less than they were.

Ummmm, did anyone else catch the bolding in her statement?

It’d be a heck of a lot cheaper to just mail a twenty dollar tracfone card with their welfare check once every quarter. Oh, wait, that’d require them to monitor their use of airtime like those “fools” that pay for a phone do.

Never mind.

The program in Ohio cost $26.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, the most recent data available, versus $15.6 million in the same timeframe in 2011.

In case anyone is curious as to how this gets paid for, check your phone bill. I have two charges on my bill (for three phones) one is for Oklahoma Universal Service ($1.65 per month, and one is for Federal Universal Service ($2.64 per month).

But more interesting to me is the extraordinary number of phones in Ohio. Ohio has roughly 3.7% of the US population, but they have a little over 6% of the program's free phones. Now I am sure that the difference there has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Ohio is a crucial battleground state.

So, just in case anyone has missed the point: If you have a cell phone that you pay for, you are buying votes for Obama.

Glad to see Ohio is the poster child for Socialism.

[Cicero]

It’s “savings” when you cut back $27 million in free gubbermint phones to $24 million? And I presume that doesn’t count all the new users who will join the party.

[ronnie raygun]

And this is a battleground state. It’s like running for office in the getto after you just handed out welfare checks, food stamps, free phones, disability and social security checks.

[ConservativeInPA]

I really wonder what will happen when the Obama phones and other handouts are taken away. It will happen one way or another. Either the country goes bankrupt or we cut this kind of wasteful spending. Both result in no phones.

Will there be a violent revolt when the gravy train is over for these lazy asses?

Personally, I want the welfare state to end now. I want my children to have a future. I am willing to suffer some short term pain to give that to them.

Researchers have compiled a list of features that distinguish the free ObamaPhone from a regular cell phone:

1. It automatically rejects calls from people with a different opinion.
2. Every time you take a picture, it produces a grimmer image of America.
3. It doesn't have a plan; it just keeps telling you how bad the other guy's plan is.
4. When it crashes, it blames your previous phone.
5. All 3 AM calls go directly to voicemail.
6. It has a really useless app called "Biden."
7. Pairing it with another device sucks all the energy out of the other unit.
8. Type in "job search" and it gives you directions to the welfare office.
9. The navigation feature covers all 57 States.
10. The default ringtone for international calls is "I'm sorry, so sorry, please accept my apology."
11. The healthcare app downloads and installs itself without your permission.
12. When you make a call, a teleprompter pops up to help you speak.
13. Restaurant reviews are all written by Michelle Obama.
14. There are never any winners on Angry Birds.
15. Instagram takes two months to process a photo and you have to fill out 3 PDFs to do so.
16. Paypal app is replaced with ReceivePal app.
17. You can't find "Jerusalem" on Google maps.
18. It turns all your Facebook friends into enemies and all your enemies into friends.
19. Don't want to work? There's an app for that, too.
20. It automatically bows down to phones made by foreign companies.
21. When you watch a YouTube video, a US ambassador gets killed.
22. When you dial "home", it calls Kenya.
23. As opposed to the iPhone, it's called the mePhone.

Hat Tip: The people's Cube

[dforest]

There is a way to end the free phones for parasite program.

Well, as long as we would all be willing to cancel our current cellphone service. They pay for this by adding a tax to your bill.

No bill? No cash for morons.
