TV and a Phone
Mary Jane*, 2006
If you are on assistance, a phone is a luxury, a TV is a luxury. And if you have cable TV, it is an extreme luxury. Your TV provides you with entertainment. You can’t afford to go out to a movie.
The only way I got a phone was I was in a relationship where I was in danger, so I had to have some way of calling for help.
