garytheduck2 asked: I saw this little gem on Fox news a week or so ago on what poor people own. 99% of poor people have a refrigerator! The Horror. I don't know how to send you the link but you might like to post it so I put it on my blog.
I once told a Libertarian that our medical system wasn’t that great if people couldn’t afford it, and he was like, “Well the majority of US households have a TV.” Again, two things: 1) a TV is exponentially cheaper than a year of health insurance for a family of 4, 2) seriously? The poor can’t own ANYTHING?

my $40 tv from goodwill has lasted 5 years. my insurance is $330 a MONTH. that’s doesn’t cover dental/eyes. almost 4gs a year for basically catastrophic coverage.

The poor aren’t allowed to own anything at all. God forbid you own a tv AND a computer. You’re living the high life!

I saw this too. Our rented home came w/ a fridge and dishwasher & most of our furniture is from the bf’s parents. It’s not like any of it’s top of the line. The video shows plasma TVs at Best Buy trying to use imagery to warp people’s minds. Go FOX!

Guess what? Obamacare isn’t exactly the best of good ideas, either.

And I own a TV but I cannot afford to watch it — there is functionally no reception without cable and that just is not an option.

ugh makes me so mad. so you get your income tax refund, a couple grand maybe. do you somehow make that last a year for insurance? or do you buy the one luxury you likely get a year?? poor people aren’t allowed to do anything but work!

Yeah you can get a “TV” for less than $20 at Good Will…I would know I’ve been dorm shopping.
