Core 'issues'

---
Wow... this gal seems like such a wonderful person... We need many more people like her out there fighting for what is 'morally right' over what is 'profitable' for the company they find themselves 'chained' to...

When she speaks of having empathy with/for others you can tell it is from her heart. You can tell there is a battle raging within her to actually do what she can to try to 'really' help others vs the, as she calls them, 'inherently evil' policies of the company for which she toils...

She presents a very clear picture of the way America is now... It truly seems that it has become 'us vs them'. While Federal Reserve interest rates remain at or near never before seen lows, apparently for eternity, she speaks of Americans struggling with 29.99% credit card interest rates, 15.00 'fees' just to make a payment!, 39.00 late fees, 39.00 over limit fees....

It HAS to be so obvious to everyone just how little the life/security/situation of Americans mean to corporate elites. All 'they' see are dollars... nothing else matters. It is the same with our government...

But we, the people, have managed to hold onto the 'values' that have always made America the great nation she is.

This sets up a rather extreme 'clash of cultures', IMO...

A dramatic clash is coming... a clash between historical American 'values' vs the greed and corruption of corporate America and our government.

The 'system' that exists in America now is SO unfair that NO ONE should participate in it at all!

It is *my* opinion that both corporate America and our government have already lost the battle... 'they' have already failed. 'They', currently, are making a massive effort to 'convince America' that 'nothing' has changed... That everything is as it always has been.

'They' contimue to PRETEND there is nothing 'morally wrong' with entrapping under-educated Americans, young and old alike, with extremely 'punitive' legal contracts that they do not understand... This is now considered 'standard practice' in American business. It is just a normal part of the worship of 'fiat currency' that permeates American business and government. 'They' want us to believe that corporations and government itself have done nothing wrong at all... That 'things' are as they should be.

It is my own personal belief that things in America will not improve significantly until/unless nearly 40% of business' go bankrupt

You see... IF corporations and government were to actually DO what is 'right', 'fair', 'just', for the American people then our economy would totally collapse immediately! 'They' simply CANNOT 'afford' to do anything that is right and fair for the American people. 'They' have fallen into their own trap. Their 'evil?' plans have worked far too well! Far too many Americans find themselves 'ensnared' in the multiple 'debt traps' set by, nearly, every corporation in America.

Just a few things that 'bother' me...

Mail-in rebates (Normally these use a great deal of 'complexity' to make most a pure FRAUD)

Fine print (It will bite you in the ass almost every single time! 'They' always have ALL the advantage! Read some of these damned things! 'They' can do virtually ANYTHING THEY WANT! And YOU have virtually NO recourse! Don't sign it!)

'Painfully' high interest rates (While the FED remains at or near ZERO for the banks...)

NO yield at all for savings! As 'they' attempt to FORCE everyone into the maket...

Utility companies (Time for a rate increase... time for a rate increase... time for a rate increase... time for a rate increase... (customer 'service' charges...) time for a rate increase...))

Taxes (taxes and MORE taxes... on EVERYTHING! Breathing will be taxed soon! As part of health insurance 'reform' no doubt...)

Data manipulation (by the government/FED The lie of 'growth' vs the reality of demographics, lies about spending and borrowing being 'good' for the economy when 'they' SHOULD be pushing financial literacy and saving!) (The 'hiding' of the TRUE unemployment number... the TRUE GDP numbers, the TRUE money supply numbers, the TRUE CPI numbers, the TRUE reason for the dollar's recent weakness, the TRUTH about what the 'private' Federal Reserve has done and is doing with OUR tax dollars! check Shadow Government Statistics for details...)

Credit cards (The greatest weapon of mass destruction ever created in the USA) - (Extreme debt trap #1) (I like to think that to a credit card company getting a customer buried completely in debt feels about like one of us having the good fortune of hooking into a 6 pound bass... Sweet...)

Rent to own (For the MOST uneducated of the uneducated...)

Payday loans (For the MOST uneducated of the uneducated...('I got ME some CASH!' (some 'fiat currency anyway...))) Who CARES what the interest rate is???) (For a $15 charge on a $100 2-week payday loan, the APR is 26 × 15% = 390% but the EAR (effective annual rate) is (1.1526 − 1) × 100% = 3,685%)

Cable/Satellite (See cell phones...)

Cell phone (Rip off legally binding contracts with the best of them... These bastards (sorry...) charge you for even 'thinking' about doing something with your phone...)

Insurance (Insurance for EVERYTHING! (Pet health insurance anyone???) 29 MILLION hits on Google... And Americans are about to be FORCED to purchase a 'product' (Health Care 'insurance') from a 'private' (for profit) company for the first time in American history!)

Car dealerships (They HAVE to recruit these sales people/finance 'officers' right out of some school (or prison) for scammers... IF a person 'allows' them to do it they will load up your 'car loan' with THOUSANDS of dollars worth of extra 'crap'! Mainly and namely, once again, INSURANCE!)

Real estate (Hire 3 attorney's to look over that contract just to be safe...)

Retail in general (Everything costs 6x too much, 6x more than you can do it yourself, think about it... Anything you can make yourself at home will cost you at least 6 times as much to have a business 'sell' it to you...)

Laws/ordinances/codes/regulations (There are SO many and there is SO much 'complexity' that you are 'doomed' before you even start...)

Employment (You'll get a better idea of what people are forced to 'endure' in many workplaces when you watch the video below.) (It is my opinion that business could no longer care less about what might be 'fair' treatment of their customers. The best they do is to try to have 'good' call centers to give customers the run around. So many 'common' business practices today simply 'violate' employees own personally held moral beliefs and values.)

Retirement (Forget about it... Markets are so nuts now with all the governmental/FED/Central Bank/Sovereign wealth fund manipulation to take money away from YOU so it can be handed to members of the 'collapsed financial system' that 'Sound financial planning' no longer even exists! It's an impossibility! NO ONE knows what is going to take place in ANY asset class!)

Education school loans (Just one more trick to increase the 'debt load' on Americans... Only the government itself gets a huge 'cut' of this one...)

Health cares completely unsustainable costs (There is NO 'plan' to reduce costs and there never WILL be! The ONLY 'plans' being considered now are how to dramatically INCREASE YOUR COSTS through federally 'mandated' health care COSTS for ALL, under the threat of fines/imprisonment, and taxation throughout the health care industry that YOU will end up paying...)

Drug companies (They seek to have every single American in the country on as many drugs as they possibly can! Whatever it is that 'ails' you there is a drug available for it. Watch out for the government 'mandating' the taking of some sort of DRUGS for all Americans soon!)

Blatant illegal scams (that NO ONE seems to be able to control at all!)

The ONLY way for Americans to remain 'safe' in the current economy is to NEVER sign their name to ANYTHING without first having it closely examined by a qualified attorney!

There can be NO trust in American business OR government. 'They' continually PROVE themselves to be totally untrustworthy... Don't be a fool... TRUST NO ONE!

Which why *my* advice to all Americans is and has been to STOP PLAYING this ridiculous 'game'! STOP signing your name on ANY dotted line without SERIOUS due diligence! Buy what you NEED, not what you WANT. Purchase 'used' merchandise whenever possible to accomplish two important 'goals'. 1> It saves you a ton of money 2> It keeps money out of the hands of those corporate elites who knowingly seek to destroy America only to move, happily, on to running the SAME SCAM in China and Indian!

I hope this video will convince many many more Americans that their own personal values are far more important than any 'job' will ever be... Lets all agree to stand up FOR each other and AGAINST tyranny...
