Amy Klobuchar Says "You're Dumb"
Klobuchar has introduced a "Cell Phone Bill of Rights":
Minnesota DFL U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar [held] a forum Monday in Golden Valley about legislation she is sponsoring to protect cell phone consumers.
Klobuchar says the legislation was prompted by complaints she gets from constituents about poor service and unexpected fees from cell phone companies. Klobuchar is calling her initiative a "Bill of Rights" for cell phone consumers.
Speaking on the Senate floor last Friday, Klobuchar said it's time to level the playing field in the cell phone contract game. "Early termination fees are a family budget buster," she said. "Families should be able to terminate service without outrageous fees and know if their cell phone will work on their drives and in their home and office."

If you're going to pay over $50K to the cell phone companies in your lifetime you either made the wrong choice in providers or are talking on a cell phone way too much.
You have a free markets of several cell phone carriers to select service. But no, you don't want to do the footwork, you want the govt to protect you.
Sorry, but I couldn't disagree with you more.
