I agree. The outsourcing of jobs and the welfare state stand in sharp contradiction to one another. Why should we send work overseas and then continue to support those who do not work here at home? In addition, we all know about the wonderfully high quality of support that we get when we try to utilize these outsourced resources....

Keep using your credit and debit cards so the .gov knows where you are and what you are doing....
 
I am starting to believe that putting your money in the bank, running an honest business and trying to live within our systems laws are all useless. Lying, cheating, stealing and profits are the rule. Society as we know it can go to hell as long as someone is making a profit. It is time for a quiet revolution. Keep your money at home, don't declare any extra income, stop using the credit and debit cards.....Trust no one.
 
sorry to disappoint but contrary to what Paulson/Bernanke/Geithner said the bank bailouts/tarp were not crafted to help the economy they were put in place so banks like Goldman Sachs could recoup their bad investments at taxpayer expense....AIG (who will never repay their loan) got a bailout so they could fund (at 100cents on the dollar) the insurance Goldman Sachs had bought on their hi risk investments.....
 
AND the reason so many 'investments' went/are bad is CRA, and .gov crooked stealings at hands of Barney Frank and other idiots, like Chriss Dodd,

the financial community ran with it, some in FEAR, some as speculators....

the mortgage companies were selling that bad debt fast as they wrote it...

wrap up a turd in a pretty pink bow....

sell sell sell fucking order takers....would you like super size fries with your Harvard PHD???

:crap::evil::ill:
 
What can we do?

Seriously - is there a solution? Or are we all just going to Hell together?

Personally, I have had my fill of .gov, taxes, audits, excessive interest rates and a system that just keeps seeming to stack the odds against my success. I am beginning to understand more and more what drives people to insane acts against our government.
 
I vote lesser of 2 evils....only chance we have....I also voted for Perot....feel it was biggest wasted vote in my life....let el islam grow without DOing anything....

now we got a HUGE problem, problem #1 since no one wants to actually SOLVE it....

then there is the economy, but when the .gov is held prisoner by the green weenies, and business for decades have been telling the greenies and the .gov to fuck off....well...that's where the JOBS went...with complete and total .gov encouragement.....

DARE to open a assy line and make a damn thing in this country anymore....

DON'T forget CITIGROUP- they got a really big chunk of the bailout money. Now they've filed bankruptcy anyway. And I'll wager the bailout money will be written off as a bad debt.

OOPS! They are the banking group that takes care of the biggest part of the CONGRESSIONAL PENSION. No way is Congress going to let them fail. Put all the Congress on an even footing with the rest of us? Oh, HELL NO. They need to have their OWN healthcare plan and pension plan that the voters can't get into.

Just today, I recieved a statement from Bank Of America, saying that I owe them $9.98. When I closed a account 2 mos ago (another long sorry story of poor service) and got a exact quote of principal and intrest, the account didn't get processed right away and I recieved a extra $.02. So the account was automatically reactivated, and after 2 mos of a 2 cent balance they assesed me a $10.00 service charge. Luckily for them, the wife is a much more cultured person than yours truly, and she called and gave them hell.
They finally gave in and closed the account and droped the charges.
What a bunch of ass holes.
They reopen a closed account because of their delay in processing which resulted in giving me $.02 intrest and then charge me $10.00? $.02?? Thats not even 1 minutes intrest on the ammount of the account. WTF?
UFB!
Then they have the balls to argue with the wife.
Obviously, I will never deal with them again.

Just the opposite here, wife is a push over....they really don't wanna deal with ME.....

and that above sounds like a typical computer based automated reaction they hate to manual over ride because some bean counter keeps track of how many time they DO override the computers..... :kissass:

A prime example of a screwed up system. How much time and expense do you suppose it took to remedy a $.02 error? The banks count on you getting tired and frustrated to the point where you pay the bill just to make it go away. Next you will have to deal with a bank rep. who is sitting somewhere in INDIA and who can't carry a conversation in ENGLISH without having to consult a flow chart. Outsourcing - ARGH! If we keep sending those dollars and jobs overseas where will we be?
