because congress doesn't always act constitutionally and the court acts as the final arbiter to review legislation.

Actually, the free cell phone distribution didn't start under Reagan. There was no such thing as cell phones when Reagan was in. The expansion which included cell phones happened later. And, the Universal Service Fund, which appears on your phone bill, didn't start until 1997, under Clinton.

Under Ronald Reagan, the only service which was available at a lower or free cost to low-income telephone users was long distance calling.

Yeah, that's what happens when you give the government power. Small low cost programs rarely stay small or lost cost for long.

Please show me in the Constitution where it authorizes congress to force a private company to collect fees from citizens to fund a product for other citizens. Go a head I'll wait, but I will give you a fair warning, know the definition of terms you might site.

Hey, if it makes you feel any better, it wasn't all that long ago that our phone bills didn't reflect a payment to the government for funding the Spanish American War.
