Cable Companies

We decided to go with Satellite in our new house over cable, since cable is way too expensive.

Now I just read a report that it might be sports programming that's upping cable prices. Senator McCain spoke pretty much my thoughts in this situation...why can't we choose channels from a "menu" instead of getting the channels the cable company says you should for the amount you are willing to pay?

The argument against is that smaller cable companies would die.

Then I see that a new network for gambling is starting up. Really, this has gone far enough. I have to admit, I do watch mainly Sci-Fi and Cartoon Network, so I'm not against specialty stations. But when we get to the point where we devote one to gambling, I think we've crossed some line.

The only way to really cut down the crap is to give people the power.

LET US DECIDE!
