Description[?]:
| In today's advancing world, a large amount of the world's communication has moved online and families who cannot afford phone service are increasingly disconnected from their friends and loved ones. I propose that we subsidize the phone service of low-income families so that they may stay in touch with the people they know, and I also propose that we begin regulating the prices of phone services so that they are affordable in the first place. Jason Thielhorn, Minister of Education & Culture |
