Says the person not on a fixed income...which is really what the program was suppose to help with.
I think anyone here can afford $50. Credit cards anyone...
Oh..umm...sorry .

But really, ropeguru does have a point, $50 for a box that lets you watch TV and should last you years doesn't cost you that much is pretty good. Consider the cost of a DVR or a cable set-top box. Plus you get more channels, and clearer, with DTV, so its kinda a no brainier. If you really can't afford $50, talk to your neighbors to see if they will loan you money, setup an outreach program, do something...just don't complain about it. Don't make the problem worse, always work towards the solution to the problem and you will go far.
