  • The Fat Lady's Not Singing Yet for the Economy
    Eva: If you've got the funny idea that good Ole Uncle Joe Stalin was "protecting" his citizens, you'd better re-visit the library--you'll find it in the "Political History" section.

    I believe in a Capitalistic economic model as much as anyone. But I don't believe a prerequisite of it is to extract as much easy money as possible, from people we hold an edge of sophistication on, till we drive them to the brink of indentured servitude.

    I've found people in overwhelming debt, make poor company, and seldom smile when pouring my Champagne.

  • The Fat Lady's Not Singing Yet for the Economy
    The loan business hasn't exhibited this level of ethics since Benny "The Nose" left the Bonnano family for some post sentencing, degree studies at Danbury.

    It seems business is not business unless the last nickel can be extracted by whatever means works on the poor Schulb that is stupid enough to work for a living.

    The Usury laws are a distant memory. Even the Politicians -(with the fattest envelopes to ever fit under a table)-were pulled up just short of repealing the Bankruptcy laws and re-instituting Debtors Prison. The Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee doesn't know the "prevailing mortgage interest rate"---Can you imagine!!??.

    "Next payday" storefront loan offices grow like weeds outside every Military base, to suck blood out of underpaid servicemen, with easy week to week, high interest loans. Even our retired seniors are being ceaselessly extolled to sell the family home, take a reverse mortgage and live high off their children's inheritance,-you know, the ones who can't afford rent and student loan payback at the same time.

    In a recent interview "The nose" when asked about his view of the Country's present debt Cancer; Stated: "Geeezze, I'd-a-done dat I'd-a-got Life"

    If Christ can ever get through security, and make a second coming, he'd better bring the jawbone of an ass and revisit the "benches" in the Temples. Theeey'rreee Bacck!.
