ACor58 Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 And I was having such a good day. I wasn't pissed off at anyone or anything....thanks Beerball.
DC Tom Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Point of note: the only ones calling it a "civil right" are the NY Post. Everyone else calls it what it is: an assistance program (the wisdom of which is certainly up for debate.)
Doc Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Been seeing and bitching about these "Assurance" commercials in CT for months now. Yep, cell phones are a necessity. This is getting %$#@ing ridiculous.
WWVaBeach Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 I've seen ads here in Va, also in Fl and RI for quite a long time. Shifting to PPP in 3, 2, 1...

Biggest proponents & recepients of these funds? Friends & supporters of that lefty Trent Lott. Good thing NY Post stands vigilant. What would we do without them?

Yeah I get those Safelink mailings from time to time. I make more than enough money so I don't qualify for their free service, but I do qualify to pay for somebody else's free service
Simon Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 That's unbelievable. I've never even owned a cellphone cuz the one in my kitchen works just fine and I don't need to be paying for something unneeded. But next I'll be paying for somebody else to have one they don't need? wtf

I never use it, it stays in my car just like my spare tire-there if I need it.

Nanker Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 "it is a right to have peace of mind," Cater explained. Sounds to me like he has a piece of one.
