Even today the Obama administration is out there talking about how to help the little guy instead of just Wall Street.  There is all this talk about the stimulus and that extra 15 dollars we'll receive each pay period.

Well, apparently todays topic is about credit and how we have been tricked into accepting credit with high rates, etc.  Aside from the fact that it makes a "little guy" like myself (to whom it's aimed I presume) sound stupid, my issue is probably not unlike many other people out there.

I make a decent amount of money AND I have a decent amount of credit card debt.  Well, over the last 9 months or so I have had both of my major credit cards not only raise their interest rates but DOUBLE them.  My only recourse has been to cancel the cards and pay them off on my own time or to just accept their new terms.  This, mind you, is after both financial institutions have accepted billions of dollars in federal money (widely reported in the news).

I could go on and on about this but suffice it to say, I am at a point where I am really beginning to wonder why no one is talking about this (are they?).  I am quite sure this is happening to people across the board and I am surprised that there is no discussion about it.  That raised APR is costing me a fortune and forcing me to make tough decisions.  And I am.  But I don't think everyone can.  

These are the things that infuriate the public.  These are the things that make me wonder why we just have to sit back and take it.  

Does he have to now prove innocence?
Isn't it enough that there is sufficient reason to believe that since  witnesses against him have recanted their testimony, the State would be unlikely to obtain a conviction were a new trial to be held?

Here, for another century an unconstitutional law by Congress to delegate a secret society to distribute tax payer money is absurd and wrong, worse done with secrecy, no audits and no known return. Everyone should be totally convinced that the abolishment of the Federal Reserve is in order.

There is no such thing as National Security without everyone understanding what is going on. Why even suggest it's National if everyone does not know what going on.  Of course we are all in this government together, It is an incredible delusion to believe that the electorate should not know what is good, or not. It's pathetic to think the electorate does not need to know what such importance is, or discover what simple truths will be necessary to be secure in life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

For me having thought about this plenty of times and the logic is going ass backwards.

We the people are in a stupid funk to believe that in order to have life liberty and the pursuit of happiness, those most serious things's needed to know, must be secret. What a growing joke.

Isn't it amazing Republicans dance around deregulation but want Supreme control over wire taping, or no controls over banking, but secretly give money via the federal reserve when screw ups are made to who knows who for nobody knows what reasons, the dance gets better all the while claiming America should be run like a business yet now realize bailing out business we the people would like to terminate some managers and CEO's plus get a reasonable return on the investment loaned.
