The new foreclosure aide bill was signed by the president today and many, in fact most will hail it as a major achievement. Most politicians will take credit for it and brag about their role in helping, get this, Americans in need. The bill is supposed to provide 180 million dollars for struggling home owners and a very silent aspect called "counseling".
Of course those who "have" will say these people need counseling and that is good and yes people should have every reason to be advised correctly whenever they enter an agreement. However, and there is always a however, do YOU really think people read much less understand every line of an agreement? Common now, do you? Is there not an element of trust involved? Is that not what is "sold' whenever you deal with a business? How trustworthy and reputable they really are? In fact many lawyers do not even understand many of the very laws they participate in writing because of the manner and complexity of how they are written. The words used are open ended, having diversified applications, intent and meaning. Please give us a break.
Ok, let me ask, honor, believers or what they or we call them
do we need more of the same?
Foreclosures, astronomical in number continue. Help for those who have and not for those who do not and no end in sight,
do we need more of the same?
Credit Worthy, irresponsible, credit card only, no third party checks, no cash accepted here, we're only checking your ID, "for your protection" yea, right,
do we need more of the same?
Your ID, personal information, Social Security, Credit all off shore and on some third world computer screen and you aren't concerned in the least,
do we need more of the same?
Health Care what? Doctors handing off patients to doctor's who work for the hospital [hospitalists] know nothing about you or your loved ones sickness or problem. In my opinion who do not communicate effectively, who really have no decency, mercy, compassion. Multiple doctors showing up for a pay day. They follow "prescribed treatment and procedures". Yes a system gone a muck,
do we need more of the same?
Credit, yes for those who have and do not have a need for it,
do we need more of the same?
Ok, can we not say that the interest rates on credit cards is not usury, exploitive, wrong,
do we need more of the same? Bailouts of private firms to the tune of billions yes billions of dollars all on the backs of the tax payers while the poor, the needy, the sick and elderly programs get cut, eliminated, reduced.,
do we need more of the same?
The facade, yes facade of consumer protection,
do we need more of the same?
Immigration, another buzz word for approved crime and exploitation, fact,
do we need more of the same?
Deficits in the trillions, yes trillions not billions,
do we need more of the same?
Business who can crush, destroy, use and exploit when extorting and crushing you, all free of charge with no ramifications,
do we need more of the same?
Our young off to wars in nations that hate us, for three, four and more years and multiple tours to come home and find they are unemployed, lost their home, some their families and more,
do we need more of the same?
No manufacturing, machinists, technology, industry, low wage jobs, no future, no benefits no hope, yes hope. Hope in what Change because someone says it,
do we need more of the same?
Politicians who profess God and allow this to happen, write the laws that allow this, support this, create this, propagate it and they stand before you as persons of honor, integrity, ability, decency, compassion, love. Give me a break please,
do we need more of the same?
Who needs to write any more. God, give me a break please. Where do they put into practice the God they follow? Where does it show. That is right, you got it. In my opinion it is most evident in their works, what they do and fail to do. Yes and I think for the most part we know the God I am referring to. Do they think so? In my opinion, certainly not, but then again the proof is in the fruit of their labor. Their labor,
their fruit, their works, not yours, mine or anyone else's, theirs. Yes and you who agree with them, well what can one think? You got it. Need anything else be said,
do we need more of the same?
Well frankly a no vote or a vote for any Republican or Democrat is sadly a vote in my opinion for "more of the same". Vote for the lessor of all evils, why,
do we need more of the same?
No the only answer is in a new revolution of the people at the voting ballot box. Tell your friends, tell your family, tell one and tell all, spread the word, the only change that will be made is if We the People make it. No not any politician be they republican or Democrat. Yes, ask yourself
do we need more of the same?
If your answer is no then you have the answer to what you must do. Not anyone else, just you. Be aware a shift, even a small one will send a message loud and clear. Fed up, angry, worried then ask over and over and over again
do we need more of the same? Have they not already demonstrated in thought, word and deed, in what they have done and failed to do, their very character? Just what does it take? Well evidently a hell of a lot because they still flock to these types. You shall know them by their works. A fact well established, but
do we need more of the same? Robert T. Melaccio Sr. 2008 Copyright 2008 Robert Melaccio Sr.
