The Tv Cable Bill Goes Up

The TV Cable Bill Goes Up Again By Elton Camp When towns allow creation of a monopoly, Its prices will always rise, just wait and see Television cable companies are a good example They have a cost that, for service, is fully ample But they continually are looking for some ruse An ever-escalating monthly charge to excuse We can’t pay only for the channels that we pick Selling them in bundles is their dirty little trick So, in order to get the channels that I like best, I have to pay for a whole bunch that I detest And almost every time that we have some wind For many days the cable service will be off again The next time the price rises I may fill my wish And have installed my own home satellite dish If enough business the cable company does lose To listen to reason they may well cease to refuse
