We
solved the phone bill taxes and fees with Vonage for a landline and
TracFones for cell usage. May even drop the landline as we only use
about $10 month apiece for TracFone and Vonage runs $17 or so a month.

You do realize that with a phone system like that, during any kind of
disaster situation you will be cut off with no communication, right? The
Vonage is iffy. The cell phone is guaranteed useless.

Here in CT during the blackout last year cell was the only thing that
was kind of working. The land lines were down so POTS was out.
