This message is not addressed to anyone in particular. Just want to share an observation....

I have to say now that the digital TV conversion is nearing reading articles and posts from ignorant people across the net worried that "free TV" is going away makes me laugh out loud. Like this is some kind of government/corporate plan to make it hard for them to watch TV.

What amazes me is the simple fact these fools don't realize "free TV" will NEVER go away. The corporations and other powers that be simply love it. It is the modern opiate of the masses. It is what keeps the low wage worker happy at the end of the day after being screwed over yet again by his mega corporation that he works for. It is what keeps people in their home instead of out on the streets protesting the past 8 years. It is what feeds the masses the information the corporations want them to believe.

No my little minions don't worry your teevee isn't going away any time soon. Fuck, the government is even willing to hand out millions of dollars to you fools to enable you to buy your little converter to continue to watch. Is the government willing to hand out millions of dollars to help you pay for health care? Bahahahaha! Nope. Trust me the government has a great interest in making sure you get your regular dose of TV. You have nothing to worry about.
