47. Isn't it amazing how "liberals" can be so callous?
DU never ceases to disappoint me.

The voucher program RAN OUT OF MONEY. There are no more coupons available to get the converter boxes.

The converter boxes ARE NOT FREE! And the so-called "cheap" ones that are "free" with the coupon are never in stock ANYWHERE (at least in the greater Phoenix area).

Even with the converter box we don't get most of the channels. So now we'll have to invest in a new antenna and HOPE that works.

And as Lydia pointed out, there are many elderly people who are on fixed incomes, whose only link with the outside world is TV. But I suppose they should just "suck it" as was posted, and be content with radio.
