She has cable?!?! I don't have cable... We quit the almost $50/month "utility" back when my husband was out of work, because we thought it was one of the unecessary things in life that you cut back on when your income is reduced. We've never started it up again since we found out we could live just fine without it (honestly, as soon as we were both working again, we spent the money each month on DVDs of shows we like - We get a lot more of that than crappy cable).

Obviously now, I see that it is a basic human need and no one should have to go without it. Especially now that I think that most supermarket workers probably don't read all that much, either. What would they do with themselves without tons of channels? Well, they'd have time to go back to school and get some training for an actual skilled job, for one, but that would be going beyond the status quo...something that is definatly anti-union.
