There is NOTHING wrong with a little of your so-called GREED.

Yes, "greed" breeds entrepreneurship and invention, providing services and products that we percieve we need, or actually DO need.

So what if cable is 30 times what it used to be, you have 100 times more channels. Our first cable system had 13 channels.

If you don't want to pay the freight then get off the truck, but don't besmirch those who do pay and much less those who sell their wares to them.

Look at Cuba, no profit there (officially), but un-officially the underground economy is all that keeps the country from sliding into the Caribbean.

Capitalism is the natural order of things, if you eliminate it here, it will pop up there.

If cable or Satellite or even TV stations price themselves out of the market, someone will slide in and undercut them and they are self-regulated back in line.
