My point is that your cable bill or even your mortgage is not going to be life threatening in this country. And even if it were, this life is a vapor anyway. We have greater things in which to place our hope then a bank or a legislator. Oh, I think you were clear.

When I said basic necessities I meant paying their bills, mortgage and such. Hey Josh,

On the other hand I have a hard time believing that "many of [your] fiends and family cannot afford the basic necessities of life." From a physical perspective: air, shelter, water, and food are the necessities of life. Anyone living in America has these things available to them, but a lot of the world does not. I was in rural Mexico this summer talking to people who really do struggle to get by, and there are areas of the world that are in much more disparate shape than there, so I have a hard time when people who have a warm place to live complain that they don't have the necessities of life! On the other hand the real necessity of life is Jesus, and his forgiveness and grace is available to everyone everywhere, and is not dependent on wealth or politicians (thank God!). I was reading Heb 13:6 this morning, and it's a good reminder to put things in perspective. So take heart and have confidence that as much as $700B is, it is nothing compared to eternity! Hi Jose,

I'm surprised they didn't spit through your phone, or disconnect it just for calling them - or worse, do this btw <3 JG Dude,

Credit card companies do it, retail stores do it, heck, Friday's current rewards card promotion allows you to get a ticket to skip to the front of the line of people waiting to be seated for dinner, tell me that won't ruffle some feathers! Are you married? If so, try canceling and reopening under your spouse's name. Or, if you are really prepared to leave Comcast over this, tell them you got a great promotional offer from Dish/DirecTv/another competitor in your area, and if they can't show you any appreciation as a customer, you're gone.
