These are not rights, Eri. They are things we have access to because we are lucky enough to live in a free, capitalist civilization that produces them, and for the record, passed most of these products and technologies around to a world that did not and could not produce them.

You, and too many others, have no idea what it took to get our country to where it is now. Idiots like Obama are selling the idea that all that is good and great comes from government, and plenty of other idiots are buying it.

You go ahead and pay your cable bill, gripe about how much it costs and how those greedy bastards could give it to you for a lot less if only they didn't pay themselves so much or make so much money. Then you can talk about how great it would be if the government ran it all and everyone got free cable. While they're at it they can grab hold of the energy industry, health industry, and a lot of other things, and we'll all have everything we want for next to nothing, or free.

Just like the amazing levels of luxury and prosperity we've seen in every other centralized economy on the planet.

Where does this thinking COME from? That's one of the things I'm trying to figure out here.

Contemplate the astounding level of luxury it takes for someone to think that lack of cable TV is living in "the Stone Age."
