I believe that people who truly cannot afford it should be helped. And that means no cell phones, no satellite tv, no cigs, no alcohol, no car note.....get my point.

I went to contest a speeding ticket once. The guy in front of me told the judge he could not afford to pay the ticket as he did not have a job. The judge said do you have a cell phone? I can give you the number of a guy hiring. The guy took out his iPhone and the judge said if you have money to pay for an iPhone you have money to pay your ticket. You are under arrest. Needless to say, I didn't contest the ticket after that.
