Cut the fraud first

How about they crack down on the hundreds of millions of dollars in USF fraud. Then they won't need to make up a shortfall.

Get rid of USF entirely and there won't be any more fraud.

True, but we both know that will never happen.

 No kidding..

Quoted from the article...

"Companies offering long-distance and international telephone services as well as high-speed Internet service via digital subscriber lines (DSL) must currently contribute 10.9 percent of that revenue into the $7.3 billion fund."

WOW, an almost 11% tax. That's a lot of scratch...

I doubt my DSL bill will go down, they never do.
