    I love PBS, but it doesn't mean the whole country should contribute to it.

    Born to love volcanos

    Born to love volcanos
    My apartment is a mess
    Somewhere under that pile of clothes
    Lies a whole $10 bill
    Telephones are ringing
    In a land called PBS
    Fat lady is singing
    In a land called PBS
    Maybe she loves volcanos too
    I'll just have to take a guess
    She looks like a little volcano
    With her red hair and brown dress

    Tribute to Carl Sagan
    Tonight on PBS
    Alistair Cooke is beggin'
    Tonight on PBS
    Maybe he needs my money more
    Than a man without a home
    He wants to make a documentary
    On the footwear of ancient Rome

    This country is a mess
    Every 2 minutes a girl gets pregnant
    Cause no one gives them the facts
    Intellectuals are phoning
    To a land called PBS
    Some old man is droning
    In a land called PBS
    Maybe he needs my money
    More than a bunch of pregnant teens
    A toll-free number to call in my money
    Appears upon my screen

    Out of everything the NEA gives money to, PBS/NPR are probably best-positioned to survive the shortfall. They're very popular and well-supported. They're also a great example of how programming "of substance" can get ghettoized to one outlet because private broadcasters (remember when A&E & Bravo used to broadcast operas?) couldn't compete with a Fed-funded media conglomerate.
    Partisan politics, misleading or emotional bill titles, and 4D chess theories are manifestations of the same lie—that the text of the Constitution, the text of legislation, and plain facts do not matter; what matters is what you want to believe. From this comes hypocrisy. And where hypocrisy thrives, virtue recedes. Without virtue, liberty dies. - Justin Amash, March 2018
