blackacidlizzard ::: Favorites Tax dollars account for a large portion of the funding. I pay taxes so I don't get arested and sent to a rape room jail. (or get shot for refusing to go). Why do you pay taxes? Out of the generosity of your heart? 07-08-02 13:58:36 _____________________________________________________
theman081 ::: Favorites I'm not sure whether or not you know what you are saying. What do you mean by armed robbery? PBS asks for money, it doesn't demand it. And though I applaud you for not letting TV babysit your children, PBS isn't a bad influence. IT's the only good one. 07-08-03 01:36:13 _____________________________________________________

blackacidlizzard ::: Favorites TAXATION. Tax dollars go to PBS. PBS may ASK for the money from government, but government sure as hell didn't ASK me if I wanted to cough it up - the choice is pay, go to jail, or get shot for "resisting arrest". And PBS has it's own negative influences in some of it's programming as well. 07-08-03 13:08:52 _____________________________________________________
