There's more money in services than in manufacturing. The phone companies can practically give cell phones away so long as people subscribe to the service. $60 a month for two years is $1440. Is it any wonder that they can 'give' you a cell phone? Likewise the satellite dish.
I am surprised that the cable companies aren't 'giving' us televisions, ideally so set that they could receive only one cable service. Thus one would never be able to unhook from the cable and go to an antenna, dish, or the rival cable company.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
