2014 - Obamaphones

[Speaker to Animals]

I think you attribute too much agency to them. Have you actually ever been to the inner city of a major city?

The democrats don't even teach them how to read in many cases.

QRD:

>Obama gives free phones to blacks.

What started out as an effort by President Reagan to help poor people in rural areas have a phone in cases of emergency has mushroomed into what critics suspect is a new welfare program.

"The cost has gone from $143 million a few years ago to $2.2 billion today," Republican Louisiana Sen. David Vitter said, noting that today's cost is 15 times what it was.

Notice something...

Regan gave phones to all poor, Obama... blacks only. Sorry... that's not how the government is meant to work...

You are literally saying that black/poor people shouldn't have easy access to the internet.

I don't entirely disagree, but it's an impossible position to hold.

That's *literally* the opposite of what he is saying. Figure out social networking, then try again.

BTW, what part of depriving black and poor people of the internet is it that you agree with?

No, I'm quite certain that's the argument here.

Easier internet access for the poor > more social unrest.


And he's right about that. But what would be the remedy, a policy of cutting them off? Higher internet access pricing?

I am saying they are simply sheep being led by a crook with a Phone.

Not pulling punches, plenty of poor white folks got Obama phones too. Obama just increased the scope of the program from $200mil to $2bil.

Uh, I think that's what he's saying. Reading *Isn't* Fundamental when it comes to consuming media from a phone.

How will they read complex revolutionary instructions sent to them by Obama by SMS??

It's not just internet access. You can't surf your phone like you do a PC. You open you FB app, see the pushed news and click the link.

Phones are different than a PC. A phone pushes customized stories and alerts you to "relevant news".

That's pathetic. I expect better from you.

At long last, Kentucky has finally found his causus belli behind the declination of race relations and it has nothing to do with reality but that's ok.
