So has the ability to dial 911 in most places, even from a phone that has been 'disconnected.' That's all the 'emergency' phone use that people need. Other than that walk down to the gas station and drop a quarter.

However, living where I do, I find it harder to make a snap judgement on this from a libertarian perspective. There are a LOT of elderly, infirm people living in my area, which is pretty rural. Many live with family, but some try to remain independent as long as they can. You can't use 911 to call your son and ask him to pick up your medication. I could easily get by on 68 minutes a month, but i suspect i don't meet the income requirements

I will say though, that pay phones aren't as easy to find as they once were. Around here, the local phone company has totally shut down their "coin" division and the majority of pay phones have been removed.

Obviously I'm not one of those people who needs to walk down to the gas station.
When I was a kid, it was dropping a dime.
