THERE IS NO END TO IT

An employer friend got a call from a man enquiring about a job, and at the end of the conversation the man left his phone number. The employer asked if this was a new cell phone number and the man replied, “Yes this is my Obama phone." When asked what an "Obama phone" was the man said cheerfully that welfare recipients are now eligible to receive (1) a FREE new phone and (2) approx. 70 minutes of FREE minutes every month.

Don’t believe it? Click on safelinkwireless.com/ and cooperate with the smiling lady pictured there. TAX PAYER MONEY IS BEING REDISTRIBUTED TO WELFARE RECIPIENTS FOR FREE CELL PHONES. This program was started earlier this year. Are you surprised?

You qualify for Lifeline Service in your area SUFFOLK if...

You already participate in one of the following assistance programs:

Federal Public Housing Assistance / Section 8

Food Stamps

Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)

Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

National School Lunch (free program only)

Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)

Medicaid

No one in your household currently receives Lifeline Assistance through another phone carrier. If someone in your household is receiving Lifeline Assistance you must cancel the service before applying for Lifeline Service through SafeLink Wireless.

You have a valid United States Postal Address. In order for us to ship you your FREE phone you must live at a residence that can receive mail from the US Post Office. Sorry, but P.O. Boxes cannot be accepted.

How much is being spent on this? Almost nothing? Why get outraged over some nothing issue like this when trillions in taxpayer money is being shoveled to Wall Street banks?

That's the real welfare that needs to be stopped.

Who benefits from the billions going to Wall Street. Who approved shoveling electronic money which overheating the printing presses at the Treasury Department. Which investment house paid out big to the Obama Campaign and DNC then received billions even though they didn't need it. There are more than a couple of banks also guilty of living off Obama's Dole.

If Wall Street specifically American business suffers EVERYONE will suffer. Unemployment goes up, higher taxes, 401K's drop, retirement funds dry up, insurance companies drive up premiums. The end result at the very least will be stagfalation if not a full blown depression. Perhaps that's why there are so many Czars waiting on the sidelines for an excuse to hijack the country.
