Bernie Sanders: The Cable Bill Is Too Damn High

[Lakhota]

Vote for Bernie Sanders for more free shit!

What free shit is Bernie handing out?

he has said that he believes in redistribution of wealth.
how can you do that without giving away something someone worked for to someone that didn't earn it.

Redistributing what has been stolen is a good thing. Even Robin Hood knew that.

He's getting around to free cable. Attacking the cost is only the first step.
You'd go for free cable, right shithead?

So, you think trying to regulate the cable mafia is a bad thing?

cable is already regulated, shithead.

Understand that Robin Hood stole from the government, shithead. Obama is Robin Hood in reverse: he steals from the poor to give to the rich.

Yeah, that's why the prices are so reasonable.

I get cable news and entertainment packages through a satellite dish at a reasonable price and internet connection through the phone line. Both work satisfactorily. Maybe Sanders should mingle with the common folk once in a while and start worrying about real problems.

I like cable because it seems the most reliable
when i had cable it was down a lot,sometimes for an hour or more,and they never apologized never gave you a free movie,nothing....i went to Dish....much better....now i have U-Verse...i laugh at cable.....

Had the same problem with cable, so I switched to Fiber about 8 years ago, I can count on one had the number of times it went down in that time.

i have had U-Verse 3 years now,has gone down maybe 2 times for a couple of minutes each time,and so far NO increases in price....with cable it seemed like every 6 months they were raising it for some reason...

I rarely have two months in a row when the price hasn't risen. I then call my cable company and complain. They usually find some "miracle" to reduce it back to the previous month price. It's a scam of attrition for those who just get tired of fighting them. I'm 68 and still have a pretty good mind - but I really feel sorry for older people whose minds are failing them and they no longer have the energy or brainpower to fight back. They just pay the bill.

i hear ya,but thats what kids and care givers are for....

Yeah, like a lot of them really give a shit.

than i guess those people are stuck with cable....

what do you want me to say lakota?...if your kids dont give a fuck about you thats on you,if your such an asshole that your care giver or "friends" wont help you thats on you too...lots of old people have people helping them,maybe where you are its different,i live in a civilized area,the old folks for the most part are taken care of either by family,friends or some agency.....

It's time to clean up this cable mess.

 

[kaz]

WASHINGTON -- Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) sent a letter on Friday accusing big cable companies of using monopoly powers to muscle consumers into paying higher prices

The irony that the reason cable has monopoly powers because government gives it to them, then Bernie thinks they will act in customer interest after removing their competition.

Then rather than learning from that, he advocates more monopoly government which does the same thing. High cost, crappy service

Agreed, get government out of it

Your admission of defeat on this topic is noted, shithead.

They are correct. I got a ATT/DirectTv bundle....absolutely outrageous price for the tv alone...its costing more for the tv than the internet and phone together is costing me...and it goes up after 1 year as well....that's when I cancel and tell them to fuck off. Almost 100$ JUST for direct tv with no movie channels or ppv etc. Dish was ALOT cheaper than this...but can't get the bundle like I can with direct here.

Maybe the socialist cable solution where government removed their competitors was a bad idea. Ya think?
