- mmmBacon 5y agoAre you familiar with the concept of hyperbole? A hyperbole is an exaggerated statement or claim not meant to be taken literally.
- ncmncm 5y agoIt was a $half billion. And obviously the FCC never gave it to anybody; as I wrote right there in the very posting you replied to, landline subscribers were taxed for it. A $half billion seemed like a lot of money back then.
- ncmncm 5y agoPer rasz's link, it is $400B and rising. Only the reduced number of landlines in use makes it rise more slowly.
