To be able to interact with someone over the phone is essential to their "sanity". The elderly, invalid, and indigent person is also forced to transact business over the phone that many of us could just run out and take care of. The elderly and the indigent are never people of means. With this in mind, would you build in an option for subsidy to such people?
