this re-education is grand! i didn’t realize all those grandmothers who spends 10+ hours a day on the phone calling grandkids, friends, their doctors , random strangers and other sundry people only has to pay the same price as someone like me (who only uses the phone maybe 2 hours a day). i’m glad mz tate has recognized out this injustice and will be ensuring equitable treatment by making those free-loading grandmothers who are excessively overloading the phone networks pay more for the bandwidth they are using!.

What a ridiculous, half baked attempt at consumer RE-education… Do the telecom companies behind these bought and paid for mouth pieces actually believe the typical consumer will buy this? It has been shown that even Ol’ Granny wants nothing to do with ANY of these ridiculous/3rd world style “CBB” plans.

“…Pay more if you use more; pay less if you use less.”

LOL, they already have that model you stooge. It is called bandwidth “tiers”. People that use less can go on the “lite” package while the ones that use more, ie gamers and such, go for the “elite” packages. Deborah Taylor Tate, do you actually think for yourself or are you an automaton? Let me guess, the later.

What a total embarrassment to all journalism. A shill should be revealed as such.

She has a Facebook profile – why not send her a PM and ask if she feels guilty for selling out the American people for money?
