On the subject of SABC ripoffs etc.

I enquired today about getting my TV “denatured”
which means that I turn it into a monitor so that I dont’ have to pay a tv license.

So listen to this:

After having done this you have to pay the SABC R300 to send out one of their employees to come and confirm this.
Wait, it gets better. . . Then, every year, yes, every year therafter you have notify them, 3 months before the end of the year, that you are still not interested in a tv license.

Imagine paying McDonalds R300 for someone to come and see that you’re not eating their burgers at home. Then every year, until you die , you have to let them know that you are still not ineterested in their burgers.

What !!!!!????????

Go James. Burn that bra dude. But the question is this: do you think it’s true that E-tv commisioned a bunch of five year olds to write the script for Backstage? anyone who has ever seen the show (accidentally or otherwise) would find this probable. Think about it. Why pay script writers when you could hire toddlers for the price of a fizz-pop. That’s quality you can trust Johnson.

TV Tax is a more appropriate name.

The concept of it flies in the face of freedom and democracy. Even the official blurb (motivation) from the SABC themselves admits it – the purpose of the TV Licence is to fund the broadcast of non-market-demanded content!

In other words, they cannot raise revenue via advertising or in a pay-for-view manner because the market does not rate their content. So they use the law of the country to force people to pay for what they don’t want to watch.

That doesn’t sound like a pillar of a free society to me- the Government deciding what we should watch and forcing us to pay for it.

I am selling / destroying my television and buying an LCD monitor to watch rented DVDs. I will no longer fund this rubbish against my free will.

I just love the way SABC decided that people will pay their license if you have lasers and robots. Oh, and “It’s the right thing to do” is correct. It’s just a lot MORE right for them than for you.
