Another government-subsidized boondoggle for which tax-payers are footing the bill, (meaning it isn't really "free").

For one thing, no one 'owns' a topic; which means that anyone else can post to it if wished. For another, your advice to mooch off of the government teet during a time of deficit government spending is idiotic. Lastly, you posted an off-topic subject in the "offers" forum, (which adds to the contention that you are not very intelligent and someone whose opinions have no value to me).

Thanks for sharing the tip. I always appreciate info like that. I never wanted to get in the system, but I'm grateful that there's a system to get into. We're all in this together and we need to help each other however we can, even if that's just through our taxes. :heart: :peace:
For the record, some programs are funded by private grants, not taxes. :star:
Personally I have a Tracfone already that I carry for emergencies. You can keep one active, with the same number, for a minimum of $80 a year and if you watch the dollar store ads you can pick a nice one up for $10. :thumbsup:

SafeLink Wireless applies the Universal Service Fund subsidy to an allotment of free airtime minutes and TracFone provides the wireless handset at the company’s expense. Instead of receiving a subsidized monthly telephone bill for Lifeline service, SafeLink converts the total amount of discounted service into minutes each month for one year. Funding for the U.S.F. comes from telecom companies who add a monthly charge to customer's bills, (which means we're paying for other people's Safelink service and their ISPs).

That's nice. I researched them too. I said "some programs", I didn't specify which ones. ::)

Indeed you did say "some" without specifying, (of course the context was the U.S.F. and Safelink service, but hey).
-
Generally "free to one person" means someone else is paying for it one way or another thru taxes or added on to a bill. Look at all of the extra charges on your phone bill sometime.

Obviously you have more money than you have sense. Some people are not so fortunate. It's OK if you have no compassion for others. That is your right but you don't have to be rude to someone who is only trying to help people who are really struggling. I am on government assistance and I have one of those "free" phone services. However, I am almost to the point of not needing it anymore. My income is improving monthly. I would like to mention that I paid my bills along with everyone else for most of my life until life sent me a temporary bump in the road. I paid into these funds for years so I don't feel bad about having to get assistance myself. Why not, I paid for it already. You seem to think that you are better than others. We are all equal as human beings. Someday you will need someone's help whether it be from the government, your family, your friends or from strangers. It happens to all of us sooner or later. With your attitude, will there be anyone willing to help you? If you think it doesn't apply to you, just wait. Life happens and you're not exempt. :angry7:

Currently unemployed and actively looking for work. Interested in this cell phone service. Is it all free? Is it reliable? Is there an internet address?
-
Just wondering....I am new here and still working my way around, but every time I have gone into a forum discussion there seems to be a lot of rudeness. Is this typical here in the forums? ???

Not in general. I have not been a member for a very long time but it seems to be a good place. Lots of good help in the forum but, there are those that wake up in a bad mood sometimes. I try to overlook the rudeness and treat others as I would like to be treated.

Thanks newgrandpa....I try to avoid a lot of negativity and if that was the case, I was just going to plan on staying away from the forum. Good advice however!

Don't forget about the paid to post bonus of $3. Just read the paid to post rules and you will do well. The rules are in "paid to post" at the top of the forum main page in case you did not know.
-
yes if you get any goverment help they will give you a phone with 250 min just need go safelink.com and fill out the simple form
-
Safelink.com an you can order one. And for as falcon I pay a 125 phone bill on my iPhone 4s every month. So I'm paying plenty for my phone bill if you wanna actually say its not free that people with real phone bills are paying for service are the ones paying for it then just consider that in paying for the ones my parents have. It's none of your business what my patents do. My folks are 65 years old and worked all their life. They don't need so degenerate that's on a gpt site making a few dollars a day worrying what the government pays for them. They paid their due thought out their life and have never had government assistance. It's not your place to worry about it. If you don't think the government programs are fair then go to Washington and protest it. Or just dot pay taxes. See how far that gets you. So until you can not cause controversy as you have while I'm trying to help people out then stay out of MY topic no one else wants you here as you can see from the negativity from the responses you pest of a person

Obviously you have more money than you have sense.
Obviously, you like making inaccurate assumptions.
It's OK if you have no compassion for others.
There's another assumption from you, (also an inaccurate one). Such a pattern supports the contention.
That is your right but you don't have to be rude to someone ...
Any 'rudeness' followed the OP's initial 'rudeness', (out of exasperation, the same was returned to them, postage due).
You seem to think that you are better than others.
That's three invalid assumptions in a row. One might consider such to be "rude".
Someday you will need someone's help whether it be from the government, your family, your friends or from strangers. It happens to all of us sooner or later. With your attitude, will there be anyone willing to help you? If you think it doesn't apply to you, just wait. Life happens and you're not exempt. :angry7:
I have needed such assistance in the past and was informed that I didn't meet the criteria to receive it. Friends and family are unable to provide assistance, (they've got their own worries). What did I learn from this? That it's my responsibility, not someone else's, and I do what I can. I've worked for 37 years, paying into 'the system' all along. That doesn't matter if one doesn't meet the various criteria to receive assistance.
-
And for as falcon I pay a 125 phone bill on my iPhone 4s every month.
I pay for my cellphone service without assistance as well. Are you implying that you son't qualify for Safelink service?
... its not free that people with real phone bills are paying for service are the ones paying for it then just consider that in paying for the ones my parents have. It's none of your business what my patents do.
It's the business of everyone who is paying to subsidize the cellphone service of others.
They don't need so degenerate that's on a gpt site making a few dollars a day worrying what the government pays for them.
Calling others 'degenerate' because they are on FC, (or, pointing out that 'nothing is free'), is irrational. By looking further, it was determined that the government isn't directly subsidizing Safelink, (those funds are mandated to come from telecom company surcharges - which other paying customers pay).
So until you can not cause controversy as you have while I'm trying to help people out then stay out of MY topic ...
If you do not want to see certain replies, Admin has recommended that you use the "ignore" function, (rather than attempting to use the non-existant 'censorship' function).
no one else wants you here as you can see from the negativity from the responses you pest of a person
Posting to the FC forums is not a popularity contest, (what, are you a teen or something?). Your specious opinions have no value to me other than to emphasize Ron White's observation.
-
Thanks newgrandpa....I try to avoid a lot of negativity and if that was the case, I was just going to plan on staying away from the forum. Good advice however!
There are unfortunatly some very rude people here.My advice is to make use of the ignore button early and often. ;D

Seeing as how "jedijonnie" is one of those "rude people", it's ironic that he's recommending that others apply the "ignore" function to him, (and it remains ironic that he does so while claiming to ignore those he's not ignoring).

how much does it cost
-
I Gurantee u one damn thing ur not gonna do is to make statements about my parents mooching off of the government. They've worked their butts off and paid in for 50 years. Like I said they don't need some punk kid worrying what the hell they get from the government. As Told by many posters and myself your very rude. No one has said one good thing about ur responses so go post in ur own topic. Why BR somewhere that everyone else doesn't want you? Also i guarantee!!!! That uve signed up for many offers on here that you had no intentions of using you were just wanting to get credit. You think that's fair to the advertisers? Nope... They spent their hard earned money to promote their product and u got paid and never used their product. So it wasn't really a free offer huh? R u just on this topic to be the annoying degenerate that you are? Anyway back to good nice people if you get the service let me know how it turns out! It's a really cool program for people that are on hard times
-

It's free but you have to meet the criteria
-

Your parents were brought up by you, not me, (conversely, they did a poor job of bringing you up). My replies did not specifically mention your parents. Although I am beginning to wonder if someone such as you is lacking in maturity and living in their parents' basement.
Like I said they don't need some punk kid worrying what the hell they get from the government.
Like I said, I've worked and paid into the same system for 37 years so I'm hardly some "punk kid", you punk kid.
As Told by many posters and myself your very rude.
It's "you're", not "your", you semi-literate whiner.
No one has said one good thing about ur responses so go post in ur own topic.
Actually, a few members have posted that they enjoy my responses/posts so, that contradicts your false contention. Once again, you don't 'own' a thread posted in a public forum. I'm not sure why this concept continues to escape you.
Also i guarantee!!!! That uve signed up for many offers on here that you had no intentions of using you were just wanting to get credit.
As the FC Admin can no doubt confirm, I've signed up for zero paid offers. That means you're a liar and your guarantee means diddly-squat.
R u just on this topic to be the annoying degenerate that you are?
If you're going to merely 'flame', try to remember that making stuff up, (lying profusely), doesn't work. Can you substantiate your contention that I'm a "degenerate" or, is this merely a specious derrogotory remark? <--rhetorical question
-
Has anyone tried it yet?

Some may; it seems that FC has added SafeLink wireless to their offers.

This is a GREAT idea! Government subsidized cell phones. You know, the essentials.
-
This is a GREAT idea! Government subsidized cell phones. You know, the essentials.
Well, it's subsidized in a roundabout way. The telecom companies which provide communication services tack-on certain 'service charges' to the bills of paying customers. The funds go into a pool, some of which are used to subsidize SafeLink's "free" cell phone service, (if usage requirements are met). Some indications that government funding, (which comes from those governed), supplements that 'pool'.
Fortunately, no one in congress has gotten the 'bright idea' yet to have car buyers subsidize a fund for giving away "free" automobiles to qualified out-stretched hands.

If you think this kind of assistance is wrong, then why did you apply for it? I think you're just mad because you didn't meet their requirements.

I didn't state that the assistance, (gratis cell phone), was right or wrong; I objected to having to pay for it through surcharges on everyone else's phone bill. Granted, it's a relatively small surcharge but, those add up like FC earnings do.
-
I heard about the free phone, but I do not qualify for one since I am not on food stamps or anything because my husband and I both work (Thanks the Lord), but I still can use the free stuff :), but I think it is a good program.

I search them after heard the info you give me. Unfortunately they didn't offer this in California? That kind of suck.

... my husband and I both work (Thanks the Lord)
Why would you thank a hypothetical being for having jobs - did such a being hire, recommend or, serve as a reference when you applied for those jobs? If yes, any H.R. persons responsible are in need of a psych-eval. If no, then one must assume that you obtained those jobs based upon being qualified to do them; not due to some mystical, magical 'prayers'.

Why would you feel the need to harass someone that may have simply included a commonly used phrase? You are adamant in your attacks upon any showing beliefs in a higher power, so speaking of psychological evaluations, you would certainly fit the bill for someone that should consider such a course of self correction. Faith isn't a mental illness, but unwarranted and non-beneficial assailments upon everyone who has a different belief than you do probably indicates one.

Why would you feel the need to harass someone that may have simply included a commonly used phrase?
Now questions, (as opposed to torture and cross-examinations), are considered as 'harassment'? Let's invert that and see if it flies in the opposite direction ... 'why do you feel the need to harass someone who asked a few simple questions?' Apparently, your definition of "harass" is at the same degree of variance with mine as "atheism".
You are adamant in your attacks upon any showing beliefs in a higher power ...
Your unsubstantiated opinion that simple questions constitute 'harassing' and "attacks" reveals your counter-bias, (yes, I'm biased against knee-jerk blind faith-based proclamations - your obvious religious bias needs no reciprocal admission).
... so speaking of psychological evaluations, you would certainly fit the bill for someone that should consider such a course of self correction.
Strangely enough, those military personnel working in the same area I did all had to undergo 'psych-eval' in order to be considered fit for the job. Just as strangely, anyone whose psychological evaluations revealed a strong degree of _religious fundamentalism_ was not considered fit for that duty. Not only was I considered fit for that duty, I actively served performing it with commendations. While I'm not a trained psychologist, I'd tend to doubt that you'd be fit for that duty, (not specified due to classification - guess, if wished).
Faith isn't a mental illness ...
Your assertion is disputed, (especially being an empty one). On the other hand, several supported counter-arguments can be made which form a strong basis for a counter-contention that 'faith can be considered as a mental illness', (under the wishful-thinking, magical thinking and believing in dubious concepts sans evidence parameters).

A cursory examination of your tone and additional and unnecessary details and statements in your so called 'simple questions' readily reveals them not to be simple (innocent) questions. If you pretend not to actually intend the harassment you think you cleverly conceal, then perhaps you are not as clever as you pretend.

Unsubstantiated? My charge is about as substantiated as anything possibly could be as these forums easily reveal that any mention of religion, or faith, or God is quickly followed by a falcon9 and gang assault. There is no purpose to what you do other than to attack/harass/bully the ones you are replying to. You know this (of course you would not honestly admit it), I know this, and we all know this.

I have no desire to guess some hypothetical MOS (why did I add 'hypothetical'? Reread what you posted and you will have the answer, and if you cannot figure out exactly why I used that word then you are not looking close enough at what you posted), and you don't have to keep it secret as I am pretty sure they did away with that "don't ask, don't tell".

I am sure it is disputed, but it certainly isn't refuted. Considering that faith isn't "wishful-thinking, magical thinking, or believing in dubious concepts sans evidence parameters", I fail to see any relevance.
-
A cursory examination of your tone and additional and unnecessary details and statements in your so called 'simple questions' readily reveals them not to be simple (innocent) questions.
"Tone" is often inaccurately assessed on a text-based medium, (as in your instance of 'guessing' about "tone"). Nevertheless, the wording of the questions posed was nominally polite, (containing no 'harassing' content).
... these forums easily reveal that any mention of religion, or faith, or God is quickly followed by a falcon9 and gang assault.
There is no formal or informal "gang" and your characterization of dissenting viewpoints as one are as false as clumping all xtians who continually mention/prosetlyze their religious beliefs across the forums as a "gang".
There is no purpose to what you do other than to attack/harass/bully the ones you are replying to.
That is manifesting false; at least one purpose is to express opposing viewpoints in dissent against irrationality. Such dissenting views oppose the belief system, not the believer personally, (no matter how much they may take it personally and perceive such opposition as "attacks", "harassment", 'bullying' in order to suppress dissenting points of view from being expressed).
I am sure it is disputed, but it certainly isn't refuted. Considering that faith isn't "wishful-thinking, magical thinking, or believing in dubious [religious] concepts sans evidence parameters", I fail to see any relevance.
Simply stating 'no it isn't' does not constitute a valid refutation. Conversely, it can be, (and has been), demonstrated that "faith" and "prayer" do constitute wishful-thinking, magical thinking, or believing in dubious [religious] concepts sans evidence parameters in every instance. That is, there is no demonstrable effect which can be directly attributed to wishful-thinking, magical thinking, or believing in dubious [religious] concepts due to the lack of evidence needed to support such claims.

This may come a suprise to some people, but there are people in this world who actually want to spend their money helping others (i.e Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Ophra Winfrey) They feel extremely humbled by the fact that they have great wealth. Every poor person in this country is not trying to exploit the government or anyone else. They are poor, hard working people who have had bad things happen. It is too bad that an extremely intellegent, obviously well educated, well versed Idiot, who posts much too often to this topic, dosen't understand that.

While I can understand how others with money might desire to help out those who don't have it, (whether out of 'wealth-guilt', alturism or as a tax write-off), being "intelligent", "well-educated" and "well versed" is typically the opposite of being an "Idiot". Such a derrogatory designation comes across as more of a specious opinion than one founded upon evidence.

That's just it, I don't believe your simple assertion without that evidence you claim exists. Without such evidence, your opinion and claim is specious.

Why post in my topic? U know I don't like u. I think ur an idiot. So why?
For one thing, no one 'owns' a topic; which means that anyone else can post to it if wished. For another, your advice to mooch off of the government teet during a time of deficit government spending is idiotic. Lastly, you posted an off-topic subject in the "offers" forum, (which adds to the contention that you are not very intelligent and someone whose opinions have no value to me).

Your 'opinion' is not supported by facts and is therefore as empty as your capacity to reason. No one "owns" threads here except FusionCash. Participation in FC forums is not some junior high popularity contest, (as your idiotic comment implies).

That sounds great. I used to have a cell phone, but got ride of it because I hardly used it and couldn't afford the minutes. I would like to have one for every great now and then to call my husband so that sounds great.
Heres a Bible message. I hope your interested.
Romans
Chapter 3
1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Psa 51:4
5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Psa 14:1, 53:1 Ecc 7:20
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
Psa 14:2, 53:2
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Psa 14:3, 53:3
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
Psa 5:9, 140:3
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
Psa 10:7
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
Isa 59:7 Prov 1:16
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
Isa 59:7
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
Isa 59:8
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Isa 59:8
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 3 KJV

That sounds great. I used to have a cell phone, but got ride of it because I hardly used it and couldn't afford the minutes. I would like to have one for every great now and then to call my husband so that sounds great.
There are prepaid/no contract cell phones available at very low cost.
Heres a Bible message. I hope your interested.
What do several unrelated 'bible verses' have to do with the context of this thread?
“You can not convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it is based on a deep-seated need to believe.”

Food Stamps/Low Income I will never let myself be that broke even if I have to work 3 jobs that's not for me.
You would be blessed if you could find three jobs. Most people are on food stapes to feed their children not becasue the want too. Thank goodness they swallowed their pride enough to go get the help!

omg the person with their dumba## comments should really do their homework. the free phone that person is talking about is paid for bySir Richard branson.. Hello everheard of him the guy thta owns Virgin Mobile. Virgin airlines, etc. So therefore know what you are talking about before you up and say nothing is free because the taxpayers are paying for it.if obama stays in office then you cancry cause you bet you will be paying for all services with our taxes.

I don't have a cell phone, but would like one for emergencies and to quickly contact my husband. How do you sign up for one of those? I get food stamps.

When you look at how each person views this sort of thing always depends on which side of the coin they are on. The people who are flipping the bill for all these "free" services are frustrated because the system seems to be abused often. I know many people who had children without being married and then got all the state assistance so they could still live their party lives, drove a nice car, always had their hair and nails professionally done, and now can even have their phones for "free". Food stamps to pay for meals for "free" when they use all their other money for bar night! That stuff annoys anyone paying for it! But, on the other hand, I know a great, hard-working mom who's husband up and left her with 4 young children. She works overtime anywhere she can and uses the minimum government assistance, but it's there for people like her (or the ones who's lost their job b/c of down-sizing~not because they can't show up to work on time..) So, on one hand, I'm glad to help out where it is really needed, but I resent helping out when other people abuse the system to have an easy lifestyle at the expense of someone else!
