As I boot up the desk top computer this morning; my window into this big world. One realizes the condition of our news outlets. At one time, there were at least a couple of TV and radio stations rural folks could tune into for the latest news. The latest news that was somewhat unfiltered, free to access and trusted.
Now because of new technology rural folks have to pay for anything and all we get; biased, commercial laden, extremely filtered, news based on the idealistic and seemingly communistic dictatorship we have leading our country and society.

Here in Ontario, the digital TV broadcast services are offered to the urban people for free. Although in the countryside, we are still stuck with analog signals. That is if we can get them due to the increased saturation of our environment with microwave, cell phone signals and a weakened sending signal.
Yes the rural inhabitants are being forced to take on expenses we did not have to endure before. The bunny ears or antenna masts and wired phones worked out fine.
What a heart breaker when we are told if we want our utility bills to be mailed out we have to pay extra. Although if we agree to accept them online they are free. There is something wrong here.
Folks we have to get something straight here; jobs are disappearing due to this ever increasing cut back of service and prices are not going down. Only the wages of bureaucrats and CEOs are increasing. Soon our postal service, bank tellers and cashiers will be a thing of the past.
We made our pilgrimages into town to pay our bills, buy groceries or the needed essentials for our homes.
Some did not necessarily have worry about groceries; they grew or raised their food. Now because of government and bureaucratic regulations this is becoming more difficult or stopped.
Do we really need all the stress and anxiety this consumer driven society is pushing on us. It is time to say "no it is not needed".
Wow! What a flood of thoughts all due to the news or no news.
