I know first-hand of people who can't make their rent money, owe thousands upon thousands of $$$s, but have tablets and cellphones like it's perfectly acceptable to piss upwards of $75+ a month to own a phone smarter than they are.
I've been "Cable Free" for over 5 years and recently subscribed to Aereo so I can watch live television from local broadcasters. It amazed me how much "programming" is going on that I felt uncomfortable watching one commercial after another on cell phones and new cars. I was thinking of canceling Aereo because I don't want to be programmed into consumption again.
