In 2005, even with protesting from some bankruptcy lawyers, consumer advocacy groups and judges, the government passed The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act.  The reason for their protests was due to them believing that this act could potentially damage consumers who were over their head in credit card debt and not provide the [...]

As the country struggles under an ever increasing sea of debt, we are awakening to the possibility of “sowing what we have reaped” to the tune of being beholden to countries that are at the least Socialist and at worst Communist.  This does not bode well for a nation founded on the capitalist system, whereby [...]

Okay.  Here is my first “new post” beginning a new start in my approach to what is going on within our government and our country, as well as all around the world.  I am indebted to so many that are willing to blow the trumpet better than I.  As such, I will leave that to [...]

That’s the question regarding today’s posted link addressing monetary payouts in the current economy.  On the one hand, the article reveals a decrease in private pay in direct proportion to an increase in government ‘handouts’.  On the other hand….well, actually, there is no other hand.  It is common knowledge that only the government is hiring, [...]

What a title, eh?  Check out the whole article at this link: http://www.nypost.com/seven/07112009/postopinion/opedcolumnists/gag_the_internet__178749.htm?page=0 This is truly chilling if true (wouldn’t want to spread any rumors, ya know!).  Who knows where this might lead.  It is possible that, in the very near future, this blog will be shut down.  Again, if this is true, we need [...]

Back on May 12th I posted that the government was hiring, even as the private sector was laying off and downsizing.  Well, here is an article with this key quote: With the national debt already out of control, President Obama has added 78,000 new government jobs to the federal payroll since he took office.
