To my knowledge there is no 15/5 package, so I'm guessing that you meant 
15/2. I have that one and my latest bill was only $41.19. Yes, phone service 
is much more heavily taxed than FIOS Internet -- I pay $17.33 per month in 
taxes on a $46 Freedom package.

P.S. Since you've already said that you feel there's too much political 
commentary in this newsgroup I've omitted a comment I felt like making about 
my telephone bill being jacked up 38% thanks to the government. :-)
