I've returned items within 15 minutes of buying something, but I had skin in
the game.

These boxes aren't Mercedes, and they may not be fords.  They're a
government give-away program.  That's why I call it "Government Cheese"
which benefit dairy farmers and low-income people.  Ever hear the song of
the same name?  It's from circa 1986, and ISTR that the artist was "The

The only people I know who are interested in the coupons either already work
in media, or -- well, I don't know anyone else interested in them, and I've
asked.

Most of the non-media people I know applied for coupons so they can still watch TV for just $20, instead of not at all.
