Yes, let's dump it since Hawaii receives a very large portion of funding through the USF. Why should those on the mainland subsidize landline/wireless communications and internet on Hawaii? I say let the carriers (wired, wireless, internet) charge what it really cost and if you can't afford it, go without phone service or stop eating so you can surf the web. If you have to hock the car to pay for simple phone service, do it. But stop saddling those of us on the mainland with your need for welfare.

Now, if you didn't know your communications service was subsidized and would increase without the USF, you need to start understanding that poor is only one part with underserved the other.
