You do realize that this program was started by Ronald Reagan, right?

Stop trolling.

There were cell phones during the Reagan administration?

Try reading the article I linked to. It explains the landlines for the poor, which was expanded to include cell phones, by Bill Clinton.

As for the trolling comment, I was saying nicely that you were race baiting and appealing to the lowest common denominator with that video clip.

Stay classy, Bill.

I actually thought the video was pretty funny, whether the person in question was white or black. It was not race baiting, but a very funny video..

Actually my favorite line is when she says "Romney Sucks".

I read the article you linked to and some others.

It also looks to me that the Universal Service Fund was created as a result of the Telecommunications Act of 1996--not during the Reagan Administration..

Which really is a moot point.. Sean, I simply thought the video was funny like many other videos I post here. Sorry you didn't.

Clinton expanded the Reagan era, bipartisan bill to include new technologies.

When you combine this video, which was quite popular with the racist elements of U.S. politics, and your posts and politics, you raised my hackles.
