No Trust In Washington Anymore!!! And we’ll all be working on ROAD CREW’S according to Obama, it seems it may be our future! Hmmm

For the last few months all I have heard is about the “Bail Out Bill” aka “TARP” and how it was supposed to help homeowners with creative crazy insane loans with interest increases, arms and the who know what to be able to refinance. The biggy’s stepped up to the plate and took the welfare from the government but not many homeowners were helped. In fact quite the opposite, foreclosures have been at an all time high. But the insane thing, if there could be any more insanity is that the media blasted that you only qualify for aid if you are 90 days late on your loans. Then they were surprised when people who were current but in theses types of loans said, hey, I want some of that aid so guess what I’ll just QUIT making my house payments.

How could anyone in the media, banks, Wall Street or the North Pole NOT know that was coming. Well, this has not gone over very well, ya think! So now if you don’t have a 760 credit score you can’t get refinanced or even a piece of bubble gum for that matter.

Over a million people have lost their jobs or if they have a job they may be taking a pay reduction. Prices for groceries are sky rocketing and gas prices are on there way back up. It’s easy to say there are few out there with credit scores that our not tanking so I guess the massive amount of people with less then perfect credit will soon be on the streets. That’s pretty sad.

I can’t write this without saying that many of these people did not qualify for the home they were in but a corrupt bank or lender did some magic and got it done. So to be telling them “no loan for you”! After they created this mess is outlandish!

I think the government needs to take a serious look at themselves because people aren’t taking them very seriously. The IRS comes out and says they are going to be a kinder gentler IRS and will work with you to pay any taxes due. I wonder why?  Because the American people have watched Congress and the President hand out the tax payers money to every bankrupt company on the planet and the economy is still in the toilet, yes that could be it!

Maybe the IRS and the politicians are realizing that MAIN STREET ( hate that name, but oh well) does not fear the IRS or the government anymore as they have shown us how uneducated and unqualified they are to be representing the people and our money. Since millions have lost everything and Bernie Madoff lives in a Penthouse paying their taxes is not that important. Why should we trust them with our hard earned money after what they have done.

Obama keeps telling us he is going to spend even more and put the country back to work but all the jobs seem to be road crew jobs. Financial, automakers as well as small business’ that have gone under can’t pay their bills building freeways. It’s crazy!

I feel there is more insanity to come. With all this talk about all the jobs being created by rebuilding our streets and highways maybe President Obama will make a law that your credit score doesn’t matter you just have to commit to working a certain amount of hours on “the road crews” each month and then you can get a loan. Yes, it sounds insane but everything else is just as nuts!

I just don’t see how you can fix this with any of the ideas coming out of Washington.

Walmart did lower there prices through the Christmas season but the first week of January they have gone up almost one dollar to two dollars on almost everything from cat food to t-shirts to try and get it back. That was a low blow. They lowered them so the American public would spend through Christmas this year but who cares if you can afford to feed your family or even make it to next Christmas! Bad bad Walmart!

I have lost faith, never really had it, but I even feel worse about the people running this country! I am tired just thinking about it.
