Mr. Obama is correct - it will cause a tremendous hardship on those he sited that will encounter problems - both financial and access.</p><p>This is an industry bill that will boost their pockets - not a consumer bill. There are two many people that just can not afford cable or the boxes. With the economy such as it is - there is no time to force people into purchasing that which they can not afford.</p><p>I plead with Congress to cooperate with Mr. Obama in delaying this transition until things can be worked out. To put it more bluntly - Why is this needed anyway?</p><p>Thank you Mr. President</p>rdthomasFri, 09 Jan 2009 14:28:46 -0000
