Do you think that the general public considers us as "shysters"?

[espo1357]

People on other websites have a negative opinion of those of us who have filed bankruptcy?

The horror!!!

Did you people know that there is also a website where people have negative opinions of the unemployed and unions?

It's a bankruptcy forum.

I am sure you have all heard of it.

I am convinced that close to 100% of people who disagree with BK, are people that don't understand it.

There are some people whose low opinion of me I wear as a badge of honor. The 'general public' is one of them. If they're not a client, a prospective client, a family member, a friend, a neighbor or a boss, I don't much care.

Opinions are like @$$holes. Everybody has one.

You 2 missed my point.

My point was pot, kettle, black.

I've been working too hard. Missed the last half of the four page thread. Very good thread.

My last post on this thread for now (I've got more work to do) I will only say a small observation: In near three years, I have observed an immense amount of for sale signs on real estate of all kinds. My wife was extended UC for three years now, (we no longer get it), there are two empty houses per block average in the County Seat, many farms are laying fallow, in our County we are above 25% unemployed, unfinished homes lay rotting, there are card tables with tomatoes for sale everywhere, yard and garage sales are all week now.

YOU TELL ME we are not in a Depression! All this came within three years. It is not Bushes regime. It is time for our Vacationer-in-Chief to ask his advisers for better advice and then TAKE IT.

Hitler lost Germany's war when he took over running it. 'Bammy is losing us our freedoms. Is this intentional or are we quickly into that "FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE". I HOPE not. 'Hub

Bush, Obama, and those before them, along with congress, have systematically screwed each and every one of us and our families for years to come.

You can't blame Bush, you can't blame Obama, for they do not control the purse strings. Look at the congress for where the real blame should be placed.

I heard someone say the other day that our congressmen/women should be wearing uniforms like Nascar drivers, in order that we know who their corporate sponsors really are.

Sold, bought, and paid for. Our "representatives".

Isn't that the very sad truth!

That may be so Frogger, but the pres has the big, big, bat called the pen of veto. He also has the executive order.

He also has the control of all military. The Bushes, all of them, are pro "New World Order". Presbo simply states his goal, ignores all who warn him and does it anyway. Check out HIS war with a country that has not bothered us or attacked us. Libya. DaffyKadaffi has made no threat since Reagan sent him a cruse missile.

I realize this started under Bush's watch. Presbo is just continuing it with luster and speed. It is NOW his charge. He can only blame others and get further laughed at. It is his ballgame now. The problem is, the congress has learned well that you can pay people to vote for them.

Inflation is a rude tax. It steals from all of us and is tantamount to Vaseline applied before insertion of a rude awakening. Those of us on a fixed income are feeling this insertion already. The worst is yet to come. 'Hub

The prez may have the big veto pen, but the congress has the power to impeach. We're on the same page 'hub.

Amazingly, there are a bunch of reponses that basically say that we are the shysters here!

The people posting those comments are likely fortunate enough to not have experienced life crashing in on them in such as way as to make bankruptcy an option. Lucky them. A simple case of those speaking of something about which they know nothing of.

How true. "But for the grace of God, go I". Karma if you wish to call it that, is a b*tch and those who mock others sew seeds of their own fate. We are in a house of cards at this time and the first card has fallen. Or you could say the domino affect as the newest rage is metal collecting on our area. Aluminum cans are now 70 cent a pound, the multitude of empty houses are being trashed for it copper, and air handlers go missing in the night. People are getting desperate, and when the food goes up, the welfare stops, UC is run out, you may just see riots in our own streets as we view on TV in Greece, France etc. Not going to be 'purty'.

Funny thing.... some of the same people that looked down their nose at me a couple of years ago are now coming to me and asking questions about bk.

Never say never....

(or as 'hub would say, Karma)

Frogger, Presbo has done nothing to be impeached for......yet. Of course he has attempted to disobey laws, ignore the Supreme Court Justices, and in my opinion, has most of Congress in his pocket. They either are next to socialist as one is a proclaimed Communist, or due to the way the cabinet and other "Czar's" are salted everywhere, that our representatives are actually in fear of this man.

What did Hitler do to his best friends called the brown shirts? Once he secured his goal as Chancellor for life, he bumped his "friends"/opposition off. Too many people will blindly agree to whatever Presbo wishes to do, for whatever reason. 'Hub http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGhdX1SI3KY Listen here to 'Bammy's words.

Ooops a little slip of the tounge

BASICALLY TAKING OVER.

This tread is about how other people feel about we who are in or have just been through bankruptcy. The link will give an insight to what our Country leaders are planning for us.

We best be concerned about our Cities gong BK and our Country doing the same. Printing paper and calling it money will just not work. We cannot spend our way out of our problems.

i agree! everyone judges, until they walk a mile in your shoes. About a month ago I posted about this ady in her 70s , who when she foresaw her CC bills getting out of control took all her money out of the bank. She then qualified 2 yrs later for foodstamps and reduced healh care. so many people wrote that she was wrong to do that, that it would haunt her and that essentially she was evil. How different was she from anyone who bails of a sinking ship. Everyone makes mistakes, its how we repair what we do that makes us unique. That lady is no different from anyone who has ever posted on this forum hoping to salvage what they have left. File or not ,we deserve to live a life.

I still agree with my opinion of this lady you spoke about.

This approach to life needs to be taught in our schools.
