Another good reason not to subscribe.

I won't listen but...

(1) Freedom of speech MUST be preserved.
(2) There is NO Constitutional right that protects you from being
offended.


My point was that they don't have anything that I want to listen to
that I can't already listen to without buying their receiver, and having
another monthly bill. Adding more that I don't want to listen to
doesn't make the deal any sweeter.

In fact, if they raise the damn property taxes and insurance any more
this year, I'll have to sell my house. Some of the insurance companies
asked for a 180% increase in rates. The rural area I live in is
suddenly being built up all around me, forcing my taxes up.
