Life, liberty and TV

EDITOR:

I would like to know how and why the FCC and Congress in particular was permitted to ram through railroad-type legislation compelling all people to pay for digital cable or risk their right to watch television.

What about the elderly who can't afford digital cable television? Should they be denied their right to watch television because they can't afford digital cable? This should be a surefire case for the ACLU to take to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary, because this smacks gestapoism at its worst.

If I had the resources, I would engage the ACLU to request all those in a class action suit, who can't afford the conversion to digital cable television.

I am ashamed, embarrassed and appalled that something like this could occur in our wonderful country of liberty and freedom ... in our USA.
