Many, as in most jobs don't even have paper applications to fill out any more. A library computer is only available for an hour per day for most places. A computer with WiFi capability is more like a necessity, but then you are at the mercy of the hackers.
No matter what one does, there is somebody one does not see nearby to take advantage and abuse for profit. Most of the time it is a bank, protected to do it's dastardly business by a cop, stupidly supported by some dumbass who somehow is naïve enough to trust anything is a simple as it seems at first glance.
We are all being taken advantage of, and blame those who have less power than we perceive ourselves to have.
Now I kind of see where all of those zombie movies come from....
Then you have an hour a day you can fill out apps then. Home internet access is not a necessity.

Internet access is no longer a luxury.
I think the whole, "if you can afford the internet you don't need food stamps" Is One of those Hannityisms, or Limbaughisms, to get the far right liberals that listen to their show fired up. Yes, I said liberals.
anyhow. Do your best with what you have. Do not deprive yourself of basic human needs, and that is more than just food. And most of all, good luck on your studies. Learn to do what you like (and can make some money doing).
The internet is not a necessity. If you need the net that bad go to your local library they usually have internet services that the public can use.

I think in the not-to-distant future, internet access will be a public utility like gas or electric. Sure, you CAN live without electricity, but it's not really something most people would enjoy. I wouldn't be surprised if government sponsored internet access is a reality someday. Having the government provide internet access is a huge can of worms though...

This is my last tour in service, 16 months left in service and I have to save as much as possible an cut as much as possible for when I get out into the world, but I will remain stubborn to the fact that internet is a necessity.

I am curious; if you are single and making what you say, how do you owe the State that much money? Did you put your withholding to the max to get more money out of your check? Because that is the only real way to have to owe.
