Multiply that by, at least, ten because that is how many phones they each get by giving out fake names. Now multiply that by how many other “family” members get the same amount of phones. They also have no problem just chunking the phone in the trash when it runs out of minutes!

"Multiply that by, at least, ten because that is how many phones they each get by giving out fake names."

The link I provided said 9% were either fraud or ineligible. So multiply by 10% not 10 times.

Let's see there are 11 million people on this $9.95 program (including the fraud). There's what 20 cell phone users in the U.S. for every person on Lifeline? So $9.95/20 must mean we are paying $0.50 a month in extra taxes to support the poor's use of phones.

WOOHOO! An extra $0.50!!!

Let's cut the poor off cellphones and we'll all be rich! I know where i'll spend my $0.50 cents a month. I'm going to get me a grape NEHI! I bet I can get one for $0.50 at Wal-Mart too.
