You seem to be confusing Communism with Capitalism, Communists would take it away and not give you any option to get it back (or maybe if they were less of a dictatorship, give it to everyone), Capitialists would take it away and then sell it back to you for more money, being American I thought you would recognise the difference, for more information do contact your local republican party and ask them why they are greedy bastards.
The way I hear it Direct TV is at fault not Viacom. Direct TV is ALWAYS pulling channels because they won't pay up. SO GLAD I have Fios
Zing! But to be fair, it's not just the Republican party, it's just politics in general. Though I do admit, I find most of the Republican politicians to be the biggest hypocrites and crybabies of the bunch. I'd elaborate further, but this isn't the political thread, so I'll just leave it at that. One of these days... Oh, and Viacom sucks ass.
