    Everyone should pay for their own just like we do.

    If Obama wants the taxpayers' to pay for free cell phones, why don't he put the $716 Billion back into our Social Security?

    If we feel compelled to provide phones for safety reasons, land lines with free minutes would certainly suffice. I am sick of seeing Obama Phones being sold at swap meets all over America by those that ALWAYS take advantage of our generosity. There are no controlling agencies keeping a count. Now they are considering 'SMART" phones? OMG, here I sit with my dumb phone, but paying for those who pay NO TAXES to tote the expensive phones, or they trade them for DRUGS. Brilliant GOV. Boys!!! Oh well it's OPM, right?

    I'm so glad to finally see an organized effort to stop this abuse of the American taxpayer. I fume every time I see a local ad offering a "free" cell phone. I am appaled that this now also applies to SMART phones.

    I understand the need for some of these phones, but like other programs; no one to control the waste.

    Why do we have to pay for this too? I bet if we knew who received these we would be even more angry.
