Re: "Does it pay to play by the rules?
Good thread. I am 67 years old. I make $2000 a month on part time labor plus social security retirement. I have no checking account. I owe 2 years on my car, but that is all the debt I carry. Otherwise I am on a cash basis. I have been very happy to watch the stock market fall. It is wrong to begin with. Why should we borrow money from the Federal Reserve which is owned by private bankers. The sooner it fails the better. We do NOT need more credit. any company which needs to borrow money to stay solvent is wrong anyway. Paulson, Bush, et. al., deliberately bankrupted us Americans. It is part of a deliberate plan. They did what they were supposed to do. They would not even let congress put anything in the bill for $700 billion to help the average person.
A few billion would bail out every mortgage holder in america. Bush said he would veto the bill if congress did anything for the voter. You can buy General Motors for $1 billion. That is when I gave up thinking the Bush administration would ever change its ways. We are all going to have to suffer for what a few beasts (they are not humans) have done to us.
As far as playing by the rules, I always have but recently I wish I had gone for more money. Not in a corrupt way but just making a confortable living. $35 or $40 thousand a year instead of living on minimum wage most of my life. Thanks for listening, Voltron
