Somewhere I read that 1/3 were speculators, 1/3 were ones who could make their payments but didn't want to pay for something worth less than the purchase price (like their car and toaster) and only 1/3 were people who couldn't afford it...the lowest priced houses at that. Funny how we can got to war or save fat cats in a minute, but debates about most problems take months in Congress.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4231927004458246757.post-34191611159260130472011-08-15T07:47:46.294-07:002011-08-15T07:47:46.294-07:00There are BIG events like these riots, the approva...There are BIG events like these riots, the approval of the "Super Congress," and last week's stock market crashes.<br /><br />There are also very scary little signs.<br /><br />I was struck by a recent credit card commercial on television.<br /><br />It was the old con of a "rewards" card. But the pitch this time was to show a man going through an airport metal detector. Each time he walks through, the machine beeps. Why? Because new coins are appearing in this pockets. This happens so many time that he is eventually lead away by a TSA matron.<br /><br />God help us - they're still trying to push debt as a means to wealth, and worse (far worse) that spontaneous, warrentless searches are jokes - litte inconviences in life!<br /><br />I will know that the end has finally come when I see an ad that makes a tag-line out of torture - like "I'd rather be water boarded than stay at that (insert competitor's name)hotel again."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4231927004458246757.post-84974246424780924712011-08-12T13:33:51.417-07:002011-08-12T13:33:51.417-07:00They are saying that these demonstrators are bored...They are saying that these demonstrators are bored, lazy people that are expecting more free hand-outs by the government that has spoiled them. <br />Even a woman from England I met with a friend last night said something to that effect.

They're clueless.
They think they can ...Nope. They're clueless. <br /><br />They think they can win a general uprising using all their pretty toys. Not a chance in hell. <br /><br />The people on the bottom, the people with little or nothing have nothing to lose. If they have a job it's a crappy job without the security or pay needed to live independently, get married, settle down. Their bosses treat them like disposable cups because every day ten people walk in the front door begging for work. <br /><br />They will eventually break and fight if pushed hard enough. They have not spent the last ten years larding their butts sitting in patrol cars. They have the numbers, the weapons and they can find the knowledge. <br /><br />What's happening in London will happen in a U.S. city soon. Because life sucks right now for the poor. People have NO hope.Pangolinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18369503994505817789noreply@blogger.com
