I read an article on internet last night saying much of what is said here. In addition it claimed the Federal money accounted for about 7% o their operations, have top of the line equipment, their employees make more than their counterparts at private stations and their executives make more that those with commensurate responsibilities in the government. They are fat, so I read.

PBS (and the NEA, also) is the socialists' modern-day version of FDR's WPA (Public Works) program of the thirties.

PBS has employed and is still employing thousands upon thousands of unemployed or under-employed artists, writers, actors, cartoonists, musicians, announcers, singers, directors, producers, puppeteers, documenteers, etc....all of whom depend and live on the tax-dole salaries they are given for their efforts.....and which they and the socialist Left view as rightfully theirs.

Like the rest of us, they should be out earning their livings in the private enterprise market...WE peons have to swim or we sink...and so should they.

I couldn’t care less how much Sesame Street people make. What I care about is my tax dollars going to subsidize their incomes.

Kind of like how those of us who contribute to Free Republic
subsidize your income when you excerpt your material to get hits on your blog?

Kind of like that or exactly like that?
