I agree but not in the sarcastic way you meant it.

It's a BS program, even at 1 minute.

Cell phones are no more a right than broadband.

"...the LifeLine program is not an "Obama program" (i.e., one that was initiated by or during the Obama administration). LifeLine was implemented by Congress well before the advent of the Obama administration, and the SafeLink Wireless service was launched in Florida by TracFone back in September 2008, several weeks before the election that put Barack Obama in the White House."
